blkid binary from >sys-apps/util-linux-2.33.2 no longer recognizes md-raid (linux-raid) device that is LUKS formatted. The result is failure to boot the system if the raid device is crypt_root (manually specificy /dev/mdXXX allows the system to continue to boot) and failure to list it with blkid while the system is running (lsblk lists it fine). Downgrading to =sys-apps/util-linux-2.33.2 fixes the issue. To note, the versions of util-linux that are greater than sys-apps/util-linux-2.33.2 were compiled with cryptsetup use flag but still failed to list the device.

Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. On a system that makes use of dm-raid and dm-crypt(cryptsetup), setup a raid1 array and format it in LUKS1 (version 1) format. 2. Upgrade util-linux to anything after version sys-apps/util-linux-2.33.2 3. run blkid and see how your dm-raid device is not listed in the output (but lsblk shows it for comparison) Actual Results: The assembled raid device is not visible to blkid utility. Expected Results: Even when running with versions greater than sys-apps/util-linux-2.33.2, blkid should continue to detect the raid device.

also, to roll-back to a working blkid binary in my initrd images I needed to create a local ebuild out of genkernel package, so I could specify the working util-linux version there: -VERSION_UTIL_LINUX="2.36" +VERSION_UTIL_LINUX="2.33.2" Otherwise the system continues to fail to find the crypt_root device during boot.
I am wondering if this problem is somehow related to bug 742527 now that you mentioned genkernel and that the difference in output is just line > /dev/md1: UUID="e11887f5-4104-4a9e-9c53-7e1d904a0b28" TYPE="crypto_LUKS" which is missing. Please show us used kernel command-line line (cat /proc/cmdline) and used genkernel option (basically I need to know if you enabled MDADM_CONFIG in used genkernel.conf or if you are passing --mdadm-config to genkernel call).
Hello Thomas, The bug report you mentioned is not related to this. Like I said in the first comment, manually specifying: '/dev/md1' on the boot prompt where it expects a CRYPT_ROOT= device allows the system to continue to boot, thus the raid has been successfully assembled and started already. I believe this answers your question about how genkernel builds the intird images. The problem I am reporting, perhaps a bug for upstream util-linux, is that the blkid binary stopped to list a device, for some reason. Again, I do believe this is a corner case as this is the only device that disappeared. The device is not listed while the system is fully booted or in the beginning of the boot process. The inconvenience being the early boot, which prevents it being passed on to CRYPT_ROOT, even when I specify 'crypt_root=/dev/md1' instead of the UUID. Here is the cmdline: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-5.8.9-gentoo-x86_64 root=UUID=57e79155-c611-46c7-9c2c-867256a55d5d ro crypt_root=UUID=e11887f5-4104-4a9e-9c53-7e1d904a0b28 root_trim=yes libata.allow_tpm=1 domdadm dolvm This works fine now that I have downgraded util-linux and genkernel.
Well, I asked the genkernel question because mdadm itself will never create /dev/md1 (mdadm will create /dev/md12X by default). The only way to get /dev/md1 is either adding mdadm.conf where you specified name to initramfs so mdadm knows you want to assign /dev/md1 during assemble or when using <genkernel-4.1 and having some root=/dev/md1 kernel command-line parameter set (this special handling got removed in genkernel-4.1+). So I am actually wondering what's creating /dev/md1 for you. And just to clarify: With latest util-linux where /dev/md1 is missing in output, does /dev/md1 exist at all? Anyway, nobody in Gentoo will be able to help you because nobody is able to reproduce this at the moment. So you will have to ask upstream about that if you believe this is an util-linux problem. When you are able to reproduce I would suggest to start bisecting util-linux which should be straight forward given that we have a live ebuild.
Thanks Thomas, #MDADM_CONFIG="/etc/mdadm.conf" - is commented out in the genkernel.conf and I do not pass --mdadm-config on the command line. /dev/md1 exists with all versions of the utils. It gets assembled properly. It is only 'blkid' binary cannot find it from the later versions of util-linux. I will have to create a bug report upstream for this, feel free to close this, as long as I can later refer the upstream bug in the comments, this should be fine. Thanks for looking into it.
Upstream bug report created: https://github.com/karelzak/util-linux/issues/1151
