Is it something new in 1.3.1? (It shouldn't, there was no changes). Which compile option are you using (configure options)? (mainly which crypto backend - libgcrypt?) Anything special with libc, environment or so? > /conf/root # cryptsetup --debug -q luksFormat /dev/dtdb1 Can you try to add "-i 1" - is is still looping? > The platform is ppc mpc8379-rdb.

If it is loops in PBKDF2 perf. check, I do not think the problem is in hw acceleration (depends if userspace lib uses hw acceleration but I think it is not, hw acceleration is used probably in kernel only.) I guess "cryptsetup create" command work without problem, right?
