Bug Description
currently ecryptfs does not recover well when the encrypted disk had run out of disk space. This could be improved (maybe something similar to the space reserved for root on ext2 partitions?). The issue that I usually run into is 0-sized files under /home/.ecryptfs and the corresponding entries in /var/log/syslog. There may be other issues as well.
Thank you for your work
