Personal ArchLinux package combining dropbear and cryptsetup in initrd for unlocking LUKS-encrypted devices either locally (boot console) or remotely over SSH.
The code was reworked from [dropbear_initrd_encrypt](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dropbear_initrd_encrypt/).


## Installation
After cloning the repo, installation is done as for an AUR package.


## Configuration
As explained upon installation, the following things need to be done:
   * add the SSH public key to `/etc/dropbear/initrd.authorized_keys`
   * add the `ip=` kernel command parameter to the bootloader configuration (see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mkinitcpio#Using_net)
   * in the `HOOKS` section of `/etc/mkinitcpio.conf`, add `ssh-cryptsetup` before `filesystems`; then rebuild the initramfs: `mkinitcpio -p linux`

The LUKS-encrypted devices to unlock are derived from `/etc/crypttab`.


Some options can be set in `/etc/initcpio/sshcs_env` (file is sourced in initrd shell):
   * `sshcs_opt_debug`: whether to be more verbose about ongoing actions
      - default: 0
      - any non-zero value to enable
   * `sshcs_opt_timeout_ipconfig`: time (in seconds) to configure IP
      - default: 10 seconds
   * `sshcs_opt_listen`: SSH listening port
      - default: 22
   * `sshcs_opt_timeout_poweroff`: time (in seconds) to unlock devices before automatic powering off
      - default (and minimum value): 2 minutes
      - negative value to deactivate

For example:

    sshcs_opt_timeout_ipconfig=30
    sshcs_opt_listen=2222
    sshcs_opt_timeout_poweroff=-1


## Building notes
1. Modify the sources (features in `src`, and/or package building files)
2. If `src` was modified
   * archive the `src` folder in `$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.xz` file; e.g.: `tar -cJf initrd-ssh-cryptsetup-0.4.tar.xz src`
   * upload the archive on the online repository (pointed by `PKGBUILD`)
3. Update `PKGBUILD`
   * bump `pkgver` if `src` was modified, or `pkgrel` if building files were modified
   * refresh `md5sums` if necessary (based on `md5sum initrd-ssh-cryptsetup-*.tar.xz initrd-ssh-cryptsetup.install` output)
4. Delete generated archive file if any
