    [$] Authenticated Btrfs
    Developers who are concerned about system integrity often put a fair amount
    of effort into ensuring that data stored on disk cannot be tampered with
    without being detected.
    Technologies like dm-verity
    and fs-verity are attempts to solve this
    problem, as is the recently covered integrity
    policy enforcement security module
    . More Recently, Johannes Thumshirn
    has posted a patch
    series
    adding filesystem-level authentication to Btrfs; it promises to
    provide integrity with a surprisingly small amount of code.
