That's why I submitted it there. But every single party that is involved in kernel development or support likes to point the finger at someone else without bothering to attempt reproducing. That's been my past experience, which is why I'm trying multiple avenues for support here. > Also try use loop directly. Does mkfs works ok?

It is a tad slower than doing mkfs directly on the file, but nothing close to the issues with the luks loopback. > If it "locks" paste kernel trace to bugzilla (through sysrq, > "echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger" and see syslog.) > > (It seems to me more like problem with loop device or combination > than with dmcrypt.
