My setup:
I have 2 mdraid devices: one 24T raid6, one 1T raid1, and one separate SSD. All
are LUKS-encrypted, SSD is partitioned into MBR boot partition, encrypted /boot
partition and a big encrypted partition for a PV. The encrypted block devices
(except /boot) are PVs in my VG. The 24T RAID holds the origin LV, the 1T RAID
is made into a cachepool.

Hi

I'd say in your case it's very important which version of kernel is in use,
as there very couple fixes solving this issue in not too long history.

$ uname -a
Linux hal-9002 4.18.0-2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.18.10-2 (2018-11-02) x86_64 GNU/Linux

I think it's not *that* old.
I searched for some info about this issue, but my google mojo left me and I
didn't find anything. Can you point me to some place - like commit or bug
description - where I could read about those fixes?

Secondary issue is - it's always good idea there is correct shutdown process
instead of just 'power-off' althouhg in 'writethrough' case it should not be
that big issue (but here applies the advice number one - use recent
kernels).

OK, so how should the shutdown look like?



On i.e. Fedora distribution all filesystems are unmounted and all LVs are deactivatated - due to switch to shutdown 'ramdisk' (reusing the one from initial boot).
