The main change is that cryptsetup releases are now maintained

Thanks Clemens Fruhwirth for agreement on this.

It's great that this found a maintainer, this tool is too important to end up dead.

* Retain readahead of underlying device. [Milan Broz]

Can't check if this works, as all readahead values here are equal to the default (including my hard drive's value).

* Display device name when asking for password. (thanks to Till
Maas) [Milan Broz]

Works and looks good.

* Use remapping to error target instead of calling udevsettle
for temporary crypt device. [Milan Broz]

Thank you, I've been waiting for this. We've been using udevsettle for a while now and it seems everything is faster with the new method. As I only open one device nowadays, I can't verify if it fixes the bug that was the reason for introducing udevsettle.


This rc seems solid so far, but I only tried luksDump and luksOpen. I hope this can be released soon.
