# http://www.brunoparmentier.be/blog/how-to-install-arch-linux-on-an-encrypted-btrfs-partition.html
# https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Swap_encryption

# Take note of this:
# - The first thing you need is to identify which disk you're going to use. For the purpose of this guide, it will be /dev/sda
#   Be VERY CAREFUL if you have more than one disk on your computer, and DOUBLE CAREFUL if one of them is the one with your backups
# - Since btrfs does not support swapfiles (yet), we'll create a swap partition. In this guide, it will NOT be encrypted
#   This means that, if you hibernate your notebook, even if you have your whole root encrypted, when you resume,
#   it will come back ALREADY UNLOCKED.
# - This doc expects you kinda know what you're doing already, and just needs the steps to guide you thru it.

# 1 - set the setup environment how we like it
loadkeys br-abnt2
setfont Lat2-Terminus16

# 2 - wipe your existing disk with random data
# Wiping your disk is an optional step. This is supposed to make your data harder to eventually recover via cryptoanalysis.
# If you're not worried about this, and just want to make sure that whoever steals your notebook doesn't look into your
# cat pictures, then feel free to skip to Partitioning below.
# Relevant XKCD: https://xkcd.com/538/
# wipe the SSD with randomness
cryptsetup open --type plain /dev/sda container
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/container
# go grab yourself some coffee or watch an episode of Doctor Who, this WILL take a while.
cryptsetup luksClose container

# 3 - Partitioning:
gdisk /dev/sda
# sda1 = /boot, sda2 = SWAP, sda3 = encrypted root
# for the SWAP partition below, try and make it a bit bigger than your RAM, for hybernating
# o ,
# n , [enter] , [enter], +512M , EF00 ,
# n , [enter] , [enter], +8G, 8200,
# n , [enter] , [enter], [enter] , [enter] ,
# w

# 4 - Formatting the partitions:
# the first one is our ESP partition, so for now we just need to format it
mkfs.vfat -F32 -n "EFI" /dev/sda1
# the second one will be our swap partition:
mkswap -L swap /dev/sda2
# the third one one will be our encrypted root
# first, we need to prepare the encrypted (outer) volume
cryptsetup --cipher aes-xts-plain64 --hash sha512 --use-random --verify-passphrase luksFormat /dev/sda3
# I really hope I don't have to lecture you on NOT LOSING this password, lest all of your data will be forever inaccessible, right?
# then, we actually open it as a block device, and format the inner volume
cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda3 root
mkfs.btrfs -L "Arch Linux" /dev/mapper/root

# 5 - Mount the partition
mkdir -p /mnt/btrfs-root
mount -o defaults,relatime,space_cache /dev/mapper/root /mnt/btrfs-root
mkdir -p /mnt/btrfs-root/__active
mkdir -p /mnt/btrfs-root/__snapshot

# 6 - Create btrfs subvolumes
cd /mnt/btrfs-root
btrfs subvolume create __active/rootvol
btrfs subvolume create __active/home
btrfs subvolume create __active/var
btrfs subvolume create __active/opt

# 7 - Create mountpoints and mount the btrfs subvolumes on the correct hierarchy
mkdir -p /mnt/btrfs-active
mount -o defaults,nodev,relatime,space_cache,subvol=__active/rootvol /dev/mapper/root /mnt/btrfs-active
# create the mountpoints and mount separately /home, /opt, /var and /var/lib
mkdir -p /mnt/btrfs-active/{home,opt,var,var/lib,boot}
mount -o defaults,nosuid,nodev,relatime,subvol=__active/home /dev/mapper/root /mnt/btrfs-active/home
mount -o defaults,nosuid,nodev,relatime,subvol=__active/opt /dev/mapper/root /mnt/btrfs-active/opt
mount -o defaults,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,subvol=__active/var /dev/mapper/root /mnt/btrfs-active/var
# /var/lib is special, since it's very useful for snapshots of it to be part of the active root volume.
# To manage that, we bind-mount the directory from the "rootvol" subvolume back inside the var subvolume
mkdir -p /mnt/btrfs-active/var/lib
mount --bind /mnt/btrfs-root/__active/rootvol/var/lib /mnt/btrfs-active/var/lib
# you need to make sure that this directory exists, there's a step below for that

# 8 - Mount the EFI partition
# we're using /boot here, not /boot/efi as some suggest, since our / is encrypted.
# apparently, grub2 can manage this, but I haven't been able to replicate it.
mount -o defaults,nosuid,nodev,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro /dev/sda1 /mnt/btrfs-active/boot

# 9 - now that the filesystem layout is of our liking, we install arch
# (this is the time where you change the mirrorlist, if that's your thing)
# for simplicity, I'm just installing what's really needed at this point.
pacstrap /mnt/btrfs-active base base-devel btrfs-progs

# 10 - generate the fstab and then manually edit it
# genfstab doesn't really understand the bind-mount
genfstab -U -p /mnt/btrfs-active >> /mnt/btrfs-active/etc/fstab
vi /mnt/btrfs-active/etc/fstab
