[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#993725: cryptsetup-initramfs: LV activation disregards activation/auto_activation_volume_list setting

[Lukas Schwaighofer]

Package: cryptsetup-initramfs
Version: 2:2.1.0-5+deb10u2
Severity: important
Tags: patch


Dear Maintainer,

I noticed that LV activation done as part of the provided initramfs
scripts disregards the activation/auto_activation_volume_list setting
in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf.

To fix the issue please consider applying the attached patch. Quoting
from man lvchange(8) to explain the change:

> ay specifies autoactivation, in which case an LV is activated only if
> it matches an item in lvm.conf
> activation/auto_activation_volume_list. If the list is not set, all
> LVs are considered to match, and if if the list is set but empty, no
> LVs match. Autoactivation should be used during system boot to
> make it possible to select which LVs should be automatically
> activated by the system.  See lvmlockd(8) for more information
> about activation options ey and sy for shared VGs.

Thank you
Lukas Schwaighofer
