[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#901884: [cryptsetup-initramfs] Unbootable system with MODULES=dep

Package: cryptsetup-initramfs
Version: 2:2.0.3-2
Severity: critical

Hi,

I have a full disk-encryption set up with LUKS.
After upgrading from 2.0.3-1 to 2.0.3-2 my last (and current) kernel is
unbootable.
Fortunately, the previous one has still a valid initramfs, so I can boot
my system (many thanks for that backup system).

Here are the log (copied manually):

=====
Please unlock disk sda3_crypt:
[   14.107558] device-mapper: table: 253:0: crypt: Error allocating
crypto tfm
device-mapper: reload ioctl on   failed: No such file or directory
Failed to setup dm-crypt key mapping for device /dev/sda3.
Check that kernel supports aes-xts-plain64 cipher (check syslog for more
info).
cryptsetup: ERROR: sda3_crypt: cryptsetup failed, bad password or options?
Please unlock disk sda3_crypt:
=====

Obviously, I cannot check the syslog for more info. But for now I don't
want to run any update until I am sure I can boot the system.

However, after setting MODULES from dep to most in
/etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf and re-generating the initramfs, the
system can boot.

Maybe the refactoring lost this feature, but I'd like to see it back,
since it allows for faster initramfs generation, and kind of faster boot
also.

I'm available for some more tests if needed.

Adrien
