This is wrong. It works only in length-preserving modes, not in AEAD modes.

Try for example
# cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/sdc -c aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 --integrity hmac-sha256 -q -i1

It should produce Crypto API string
  authenc(hmac(sha256),essiv(cbc(aes),sha256))
while it produces
  essiv(authenc(hmac(sha256),cbc(aes)),sha256)
(and fails).

You can run "luks2-integrity-test" from cryptsetup test suite to detect it.

Just the test does not fail, it prints N/A for ESSIV use cases - we need to deal with older kernels...
I can probable change it to fail unconditionally though.

I guess here it is ok, because old forma cannot use AEAD.

Thanks,
