full disk encryption and filesystem encryption

eCryptfs seems support TPM. in its README,
...Future versions of eCryptfs will allow hardware token devices, such as a TPM chip, to protect your secret keys....
But there is a file named ecryptfs-utils-83/src/utils/ecryptfs_generate_tpm_key.c.
It is necessary to look into further.
eCryptfs: An Enterprise-class Cryptographic Filesystem for Linux introduce the eCryptfs in detail.


MetFS (FUSE) doesn't support TPM by observing its source.

EncFS (FUSE), no clue now.

CryptoFS (FUSE) doesn't support TPM by observing its source.


TrueCrypt (On-The-Fly Disk encryption) doesn't support TPM explicitly.

Full disk Encryption in wikipedia is a good start for information of this kind.

Fedora Core 4 support disk encryption. (dm-crypt ?)
Fedora's Release note: FeatureEncryptedFilesystems outline something on this topic.
