Does systemd try to mount my luks keyfile?
Please help verifying if this is a bug or just misconfiguration on my part.
When I try having my LVM setup decrypted on boot, using a keyfile, the system is trying to mount the path to my keyfile, until it time-outs after 1:30 min. The same problem does, of course, not happen when I remove the path and use keyboard based authentication.
The setup: /boot and /boot/efi are unencrypted, sda3 is LUKS-encrypted and contains all my other partitions with LVM. I have added a keyfile to sda3's LUKS and manually decrypting the partition works, of course. The error appears with the following /etc/crypttab:
sda3_crypt UUID=(...) /dev/disk/by-label/BOOT:/keyfile luks,keyscript=/lib/cryptsetup/scripts/passdev
When booting, it's waiting on dev-disk-by-label-boot-keyfile to mount for 90 seconds. Obviously, I don't want to mount the file containing just random data.
My suspicion is that somewhere there's a parser that just looks into /etc/crypttab for things that look like partitions and tries to generate mount units for those paths.
