I've got 2 full-device luks devices (usb3) that somehow got corrupted headers at the same time. They were working, I powered down the system to move some plugs and when I brought it back up, my headers are unrecognized. (See below.) The system is a mac mini running arch linux. It has been rebooted and powercycled repeatedly since being built and never had an issue, so I hesitate to blame refit. The only thing I can see is that there was a recent update of cryptsetup (to 1.6.3-2). I'm not sure if the devices were stopped cleanly before reboot (probably not, since its arch..) but the volumes were unmounted and I wouldn't expect to get corruption.
I'm dumb, and do not have a backup of the headers. (Well.. there might be a backup of one of them. Inside the encrypted volume.. yeah, like I said, I'm dumb. If I get this back, that is getting remedied immediately..)
Comparing with other users, it looks like some of the entries are swapped around. I started doing a comparison to the on-disk format pdf, but I haven't had a chance to print it out and get intimate with it yet (beyond noting that LUKS 0xba0xbe is missing of course.)
Is there any hope? Here is what I've got at the beginning the drives:
