Public bug reported:

immediately following an upgrade to 3.11.0-14.21(saucy/proposed) it
appeared that the AES module required to unlock my luks encrypted volume
for /home was not available on boot.

It was strange, as I had executed apt-get upgrade,  but when I returned
to my console minutes later, the system appeared to have rebooted and
was prompting (as it normally would on boot) for my passphrase to unlock
my home directory.

The console, on boot, displayed an 'unknown type' after authentication
for crypt_luks, and the console option (Skip or Manual) was only
presented and available very briefly after the first authentication
prompt.  Even with valid credentials, subsequent re-prompts appeared and
failed with the same error.

After another reboot, I authenticated, quickly hit M (to break into
conole) and was able to get into the console with a working system with
partitions (/, var, etc) mounted except that /boot was not mounted and
my encrypted /home was not mounted.  I was able to mount boot (giving me
access to grub.conf), but was unable to unlock my crypted home directory
using cryptsetup from the command line. cryptysetup luksopen did however
complain the module for AES was not loaded.  Modprobe did not find the
module requested.

I didn't waste too much more time as I need this system for work, and
quickly just replaced 3.11.0-14 with 3.11.0-13 in my grub.conf and I was
back up and running after a reboot.

A quick check on apt after the reboot revealed no half-installed kernels
or packages of any kind (which was my first guess as to root cause).
If I get some time later this week, I may try and reinstall the latest
kernel to capture more info.

Title:
  LuksOpen failed on boot after kernel upgrade

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
