genkernel doesn't include sha256 module in initramfs. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Encrypt your partition with cryptsetup and sha256 hash. Build kernel with sha256 as module and build initramfs with genkernel and luks support. Actual Results: System doesn't boot, because sha256 module is not included in initramfs. Expected Results: If sha256 is compiled as module, then genkernel should include it into initramfs. ### On boot: Enter passphrase for /dev/md1: device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: No such file or directory Failed to setup dm-crypt key mapping for device /dev/md1. Check that kernel supports aes-xts-plain cipher (check syslog for more info). Failed to read from key storage. ### Sorry for my bad english...
Thanks for reporting and sorry for the trouble this has caused to you. I have made a patch to get sha256_generic.ko copied to the initramfs: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/genkernel.git;a=commitdiff;h=1159b4c2f6c7cb672941e4786b4d1b427c25748a Please test the patch and report back. One way to do so would be: # git clone git://git.overlays.gentoo.org/proj/genkernel.git # cd genkernel # git checkout -t origin/bug-405495 # sudo GK_SHARE="$PWD" ./genkernel initramfs --loglevel=2 If this works for you, I can make a new release soon.
No Problem. It hasn't caused any trouble to me. A simple workaround is to build the modules into the kernel. I've tested your patch. The sha256 module is now in the initramfs but not loaded automatically.

Please sync your local branch "bug-405495", re-try and report back. Thanks! [1] http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/genkernel.git;a=commitdiff;h=506a94ab26b488a54f1a1a84ba74a5cc7db34c6f
It works as expected (: Thank you (:
(In reply to comment #5) > It works as expected (: > Thank you (: Great, thanks for testing. If you sync in 60 minutes (maximum) you can upgrade to 3.4.26 including the fix.
