Currently, we support only filling a volume with zeroes on wiping.
However, it is not enough as data might still be readable by
experienced and equipped attacker. Many technical papers have been
written, therefore we should support other wiping algorithms.
---
Okay, this is not as complete as I'd like it. Wiping could take ages,
therefore we *want* it to be asynchronous. But that would mean:
1) Create new API to answer: "Are we done yet?"
2) Create event emitting system - like we have for domains
3) Combination of previous two
In fact, I've started writing events, but it turned out to be
huge and I am not even in a half yet. I need to find a way of
re-using event code we already have. But thats another day and
another patch set.
For those interested, take a look at Section 4.1.11 of DSS_PCI
requirements at [1].
