String added in the repository
Should your device kernel have inter-dependencies between crypto code, filesystem code and other drivers, then you will have to break those dependencies by manually changing the code to accommodate for the newer fscrypt. For example, on Qualcomm devices the `"qseecom"` driver might call into functions overwritten by the manual checkout, and you will have to supplement those missing functions in your adaptation. Kernels with `"sdcardfs"` enabled will have to adapt the sdcardfs driver to work with the new fscrypt, either by forward-porting missing functions or by simply removing them.

Should the compilation of your kernel fail at first with missing identifier errors, undefined references or missing files, compare with the Common Kernel and check out missing changes and dependencies individually::

After determining the right commit, check out `fs/crypto` and encryption-supporting filesystems at that commit (replace the commit hash in the example with your determined match)::

For example, if the device kernel is using 4.19.81, according to the Common Kernel's Git history an appropriate source base would be `commit c2ad33f0296a2528fd0bf4e96af0802dad0b1b27 <https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/common/+/c2ad33f0296a2528fd0bf4e96af0802dad0b1b27>`_, which is based on version 4.19.78 and a close match to the rest of the source tree. Fetch those sources using::

An easy way to "transplant" policy v2 support is by finding the nearest Common Kernel version which has policy v2 support matching your device's kernel version, and checking out individual files related to fscrypt and supported filesystems in your kernel tree. To get started, find a commit which merges the commit `"fscrypt: v2 encryption policy support"` and related commits into the Common Kernel.

String added in the repository
If your device uses kernel version 4.14 or 4.19, then you can backport policy version 2 support from the `Android Common Kernel <https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/common/>`_ repository. To fetch sources from there, add the remote to your Git tree::

String added in the repository
Devices shipping with newer kernels (5.4 and above) don't require this to be changed, and can solely rely on version 2 of the encryption policies.
