However, I have found that I am unable to access the LUKS partition when the system is under heavy load and swapping. Martin, I wonder if this has anything to do with the virtual memory bug in the kernel that we experienced with apt. It could be that this bug existed before 2.6.19 but was much harder to trigger (e.g. see http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/3/285). It would be interesting to try accessing a LUKS partition under heavy load while running 2.6.20-git, but that will have to wait until the weekend for me to test it.
Ok, I tested 2.6.19-1~experimental.1 + vm-fix-nasty-and-subtle-race-in-shared-mmap-ed-page-writeback.patch flush_anon_page-generic.patch flush_anon_page-arm.patch and I am still unable to access the LUKS paritition under heavy load and swapping, so it appears that there is someting else causing this problem.
