[Bug 850651] [NEW] Keyring forgot LUKS passphrase

 

Public bug reported:

Hi,

I have an encrypted volume using LUKS on a iscsi device. When my
notebook was returning from standby mode, I couldn't access it anymore.
I restarted open-iscsi, but there was still a device which I removed
with dmsetup. I still couldn't mount the volume (the passphrase is
usually in my login keying) so I restarted my notebook. I couldn't login
afterwards, so I checked the keyring and the passphrase was gone.

The keyring must not under any circumstances forget one of my
passphrases. Otherwise I have to keep all passphrases in a separate file
which shouldn't be necessary. I luckily did.
