Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) and encrypted files - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

For full-cluster Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), the current plan is
to encrypt all heap and index files, WAL, and all pgsql_tmp (work_mem
overflow).  The plan is:

    https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Transparent_Data_Encryption#TODO_for_Full-Cluster_Encryption

We don't see much value to encrypting vm, fsm, pg_xact, pg_multixact, or
other files.  Is that correct?  Do any other PGDATA files contain user
data?
