I guess strlen(c) is wrong, it will stop on the first zero (mp3 is binary data, not C string).

What about use st.st_size here?

About limits - there is default/compiled one but you can always override
it through API, exactly as you did above.

(Also see cryptsetup --help - "Default compiled-in keyfile parameters", you have
to override keyfile size using --keyfile-size option if it is over compiled-in limit
in CLI command.)
