Hello, Iv been playing around with geli, and it seems that the geli -a (aalgo) 
option is completely broken.

to recreate -# gpart create -s gpt /dev/da0# gpart add -t freebsd-boot -a 4096 
-b 4096 -s +1G da0# gpart add -t freebsd-zfs -a 4096 da0    ### note, using -b 
4096 returns gpart: autofill: No space left on device, I think this is a bug as 
well however off topic.# geli init -e AES-XTS -a HMAC/SHA256 /dev/da0p2   # 
note, also tried HMAC/MD5, HMAC/SHA1# geli attach /dev/da0p2# ls 
/dev/da*/dev/da0       /dev/da0p1     /dev/da0p2     /dev/da0p2.eli# newfs

inodes.newfs: can't read old UFS1 superblock: read error from block device:

The only way to use geli with the -a option, seems to be as swap and it works 
perfectly.# cat /etc/fstab/dev/mirror/ssdswap.eli         none    swap    
sw,aalgo=HMAC/SHA256,ealgo=AES-XTS,keylen=256,sectorsize=4096           0
