There is cryptographic metadata and padding involved when encrypting filenames and the remaining 112 characters must be used for those purposes. This bug is considered 'fixed' by the upstream maintainers. The eCryptfs kernel error message has been reduced to a debug level log message and eCryptfs now correctly reports its maximum supported filename length through the statfs() syscall. This is all that can be done without implementing a completely new encrypted filename design. A design that allows 255 character filenames without introducing other design limitations has not been identified and no one is currently working to come up with such a design. Please do not add comments or create new bugs saying that mv reports 'File name too long' or that you can't create a long filename in your eCryptfs mounts. It is an unfortunate design limitation that cannot be avoided at this time. Please do create new bugs when an application generates filenames that are too long to be stored in an eCryptfs mount. The application may be able to use the statfs() syscall to check the filename length limits of eCryptfs. Note that this does not include something like a torrent or ftp client trying to download a file with a long filename.
