Expand description

GC Delay

The value in this file specifies the interval, in seconds, after which revoked and expired keys will be garbage collected. The purpose of having such an interval is so that there is a window of time where user space can see an error (respectively EKEYREVOKED and EKEYEXPIRED) that indicates what happened to the key.

The default value in this file is 300 (i.e., 5 minutes).
