The current TPM2 PIN mode is flawed as a compromised TPM directly exposes the sealed secret which is the LUKS volume key itself (#27502 and #37386). Goal: add Argon2id-based PIN hardening to TPM2 enrollment, making the TPM a second factor rather than a single point of failure: 1. Password + salt -> Argon2id -> 512-bit key split into Key1 + Key2 2. Key2 (base64-encoded) is used as the PIN to seal a random secret in the TPM 3. Key1 + unsealed secret -> HKDF-SHA256 -> final LUKS volume key This implementation ensures that if the TPM is compromised, an attacker still needs the password to derive Key1 and combine it with the unsealed secret. The --tpm2-with-pin= option now accepts three values: - false (no PIN used) - true (PIN hardened with Argon2id - default) - "direct" (legacy PIN without Argon2id for backward compatibility) Argon2id parameters are customizable via: --tpm2-argon2id-memory= --tpm2-argon2id-iterations= --tpm2-argon2id-parallelism= --tpm2-argon2id-iter-time= These default to a function of available CPUs and physical memory, with a benchmark that scales iterations to the target time (default: 2s) and falls back to ARGON2ID_PARAMETERS_DEFAULT (64 MiB, 8 iter, 4 lanes) when auto detection fails. Also if the runtime OpenSSL lacks Argon2id support (< 3.2), the feature silently falls back to direct PIN mode with a warning. Added includes: - src/cryptenroll/cryptenroll.c: cpu-set-util.h, limits-util.h, time-util.h for Argon2id benchmark auto-tuning (cpus_online, physical_memory_scale, now/usec_t) - src/cryptenroll/cryptenroll-tpm2.c: crypto-util.h for Argon2IdParameters struct in load_volume_key_tpm2() - src/shared/tpm2-util.h: crypto-util.h for Argon2IdParameters in tpm2_make_luks2_json() API - src/shared/tpm2-util.c: limits-util.h, tpm2-util.h for physical_memory() validation of Argon2id memory cost and function prototypes - src/cryptsetup/cryptsetup-tokens/luks2-tpm2.c: crypto-util.h for kdf_argon2id_derive()/kdf_hkdf_sha256() on the token unlock path
