If it is stuck on semop operation, then it is problem of underlying
device-mapper library (that uses system semaphores for synchronization).

Usually it is caused by a misconfiguration of udev rules (there must be udev
rule calling dmsetup udevcomplete otherwise it ends like in your case).

Please check that you have these udev rules installed - they are
usually part of lvm2/dsmetup subpackage (depends on distro, for example in Debian
it is /lib/udev/rules.d/55-dm.rules).

Does calling "dmsetup udevcomplete_all" help? If so, see above.

I guess 1.6.8 is either compiled without udev support or you reinstalled something.
(cryptsetup 1.7.0 does not contain any related changes to this problem).

Please better post cryptsetup command with --debug, strace only on request
(it does not contain important information, moreove ot can contain your password).
Also always mention your distro and version.

Thanks,
