Hi Anand,

these are great news! Thanks for yor work. I'm looking forward to use the 
encryption.

I would like to ask a few question regarding the feature set.

1. is encryption of an existing, filled and unencrypted subvolume without 
manually moving the data possible?

2. What about encrypting the root and boot subvolume? Will it work with grub2?

3. How does btrfs rescue handle the encrypted subvolume to recover data in case 
of an emergency? 

4. Is it possible to unlock a subvolume using a keyfile?

Thanks in advance,

Wilson
