kernel/arch/x86/crypto/aes-x86_64.ko isn't in 5.4.0-2's module tree. Do
you build the initramfs with MODULES="most", MODULES="dep", or something
else? Looking at the output of
cut -d" " -f1 /proc/modules | xargs -d"\\n" /sbin/modinfo -F filename |
grep /crypto/
before and after (formatting and) opening a cbc-essiv:sha256 device
with
$ cryptsetup luksFormat --type luks1 --cipher aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 --hash
sha1 /tmp/disk.img <<<test
$ cryptsetup luksOpen --debug /tmp/disk.img test_crypt <<<test
I see that the ‘essiv’ module (and its dependency ‘authenc’) has been
loaded. Is that module missing from your 5.4.0-2 initramfs? If so,
could you please add it to ‘/etc/initramfs-tools/modules’, re-generate
the initramfs and see if that helps?
Devices formatted since 2:1.6.1-1 (June 2013) use XTS by default and
AFAICT aren't affected. For other devices and when the initramfs is built
with MODULES!="most" I guess we should change populate_CRYPTO_MODULES() so
the ivmode is appended too, not only cipher+chainmode+ivopts.
