Hi, Looks like a2b8b2d975673b1a50ab0bcce5d146b9335edfad broke the ability to reload dm-crypt targets.
I usually used to enable additional flags like this on an existing dm-crypt instance: ignat@dev:~$ sudo dmsetup table --showkeys test | sed 's/$/ 2 no_read_workqueue no_write_workqueue/' | sudo dmsetup reload test Now the command fails with below: device-mapper: reload ioctl on test failed: Cannot allocate memory Command failed. I also get this in the kernel log: [ 61.138067][ T2594] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/virtual/workqueue/kcryptd-251:0' [ 61.139949][ T2594] CPU: 0 PID: 2594 Comm: dmsetup Not tainted 5.10.0+ #48 [ 61.141176][ T2594] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015 [ 61.142726][ T2594] Call Trace: [ 61.143293][ T2594] dump_stack+0x7d/0xa3 [ 61.144030][ T2594] sysfs_warn_dup.cold+0x17/0x24 [ 61.144897][ T2594] sysfs_create_dir_ns+0x1f3/0x270 [ 61.145844][ T2594] ? sysfs_create_mount_point+0x90/0x90 [ 61.146830][ T2594] ? _raw_spin_lock+0x81/0xd0 [ 61.147674][ T2594] kobject_add_internal+0x2a6/0x860 [ 61.148594][ T2594] ? table_load+0x2d7/0x690 [ 61.149372][ T2594] ? ctl_ioctl+0x3a1/0x950 [ 61.150122][ T2594] kobject_add+0x125/0x190 [ 61.150914][ T2594] ? kset_create_and_add+0x160/0x160 [ 61.151812][ T2594] ? unpoison_range+0x3a/0x60 [ 61.152616][ T2594] ? ____kasan_kmalloc.constprop.0+0x82/0xa0 [ 61.153633][ T2594] ? unpoison_range+0x3a/0x60 [ 61.154459][ T2594] device_add+0x2d7/0x1a40 [ 61.155235][ T2594] ? dev_set_name+0xb0/0xe0 [ 61.156001][ T2594] ? memset+0x20/0x40 [ 61.156680][ T2594] ? __fw_devlink_link_to_suppliers+0x560/0x560 [ 61.157762][ T2594] ? pm_runtime_init+0x2a3/0x380 [ 61.158646][ T2594] workqueue_sysfs_register+0x17e/0x370 [ 61.159593][ T2594] alloc_workqueue+0x559/0xb50 [ 61.160401][ T2594] ? workqueue_sysfs_register+0x370/0x370 [ 61.161387][ T2594] ? sscanf+0xab/0xe0 [ 61.162063][ T2594] ? bioset_init+0x41a/0x710 [ 61.162870][ T2594] crypt_ctr+0x24d5/0x2f90 [ 61.163624][ T2594] ? crypt_ctr_cipher_new.constprop.0+0xa30/0xa30 [ 61.164703][ T2594] ? realloc_argv+0xd2/0x110 [ 61.165492][ T2594] ? dm_table_destroy+0x410/0x410 [ 61.166357][ T2594] dm_table_add_target+0x45d/0xc40 [ 61.167239][ T2594] ? dm_table_create+0xd8/0x320 [ 61.168090][ T2594] ? dm_split_args+0x580/0x580 [ 61.168910][ T2594] ? __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x10/0x10 [ 61.169800][ T2594] ? dm_table_create+0x12b/0x320 [ 61.170651][ T2594] table_load+0x2d7/0x690 [ 61.171395][ T2594] ? __kasan_kmalloc_large+0x89/0xb0 [ 61.172295][ T2594] ? dev_suspend+0x4a0/0x4a0 [ 61.173109][ T2594] ? __kmalloc_node+0x275/0x320 [ 61.173960][ T2594] ? __might_fault+0x4f/0x70 [ 61.174733][ T2594] ctl_ioctl+0x3a1/0x950 [ 61.175492][ T2594] ? dev_suspend+0x4a0/0x4a0 [ 61.176248][ T2594] ? free_params+0x30/0x30 [ 61.176968][ T2594] dm_ctl_ioctl+0xa/0x10 [ 61.177659][ T2594] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x7ff/0x1110 [ 61.178472][ T2594] ? generic_block_fiemap+0x60/0x60 [ 61.179308][ T2594] do_syscall_64+0x33/0x40 [ 61.180045][ T2594] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 [ 61.181007][ T2594] RIP: 0033:0x7f48230e0427 [ 61.181722][ T2594] Code: 00 00 90 48 8b 05 69 aa 0c 00 64 c7 00 26 00 00 00 48 c7 c0 ff ff ff ff c3 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 b8 10 00 00 00 0f 05 <48> 3d 01 f0 ff ff 73 01 c3 48 8b 0d 39 aa 0c 00 f7 d8 64 89 01 48 [ 61.184908][ T2594] RSP: 002b:00007ffd1469cb68 EFLAGS: 00000202 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000010 [ 61.186262][ T2594] RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 00007f48231bea7f RCX: 00007f48230e0427 [ 61.187590][ T2594] RDX: 0000556251e1dea0 RSI: 00000000c138fd09 RDI: 0000000000000003 [ 61.188970][ T2594] RBP: 00007ffd1469cc20 R08: 00007f482320d310 R09: 00007ffd1469c9d0 [ 61.190290][ T2594] R10: 00007f482320c65a R11: 0000000000000202 R12: 00007f482320c65a [ 61.191639][ T2594] R13: 00007f482320c65a R14: 00007f482320c65a R15: 00007f482320c65a [ 61.193014][ T2594] kobject_add_internal failed for kcryptd-251:0 with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory.
