Hello,
I tested 5.19-rc4 on my system that is currently running 5.18.0, and came
across an issue when unlocking the encrypted rootfs disk at startup. The error
message is:
device-mapper: reload ioctl on nvme0n1p3_crypt (254:0) failed: No such file or directory
The kernel log shows:
device-mapper: table: 254:0: crypt: Error allocating crypto tfm (-ENOENT)
device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table
I tested the previous 5.19-rcX, and the issue started happening with 5.19-rc1.
A bisection between 5.18.0 and 5.19-rc1 identifies the following commit:
8ad7e8f69695 ("x86/fpu/xsave: Support XSAVEC in the kernel")
I reverted that commit on top of 5.19-rc4, and unlocking the encrypted disk
works again.
Some more information about the system:
- CPU is AMD Ryzen 5700G
- Userspace is Debian Sid
- The encrypted disk setup is a default encrypted rootfs, as configured by the
standard Debian installer
Please let me know if more information is needed, or if some tests are needed
to be run.
Thanks,
Alex
