Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:2.8.6-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I wanted to see if I get infinite attempts when using -T 0 (--tries=0),
and came across this assertion failure.

Please forward it upstream. Thank you.

Create some file for the LUKS container (the size is irrelevant):
$ fallocate -l 100M mycontainer

Create the actual container (with empty password; the password doesn't
matter):
$ printf '\n' | cryptsetup luksFormat mycontainer

Observe assertion failure when using -T 0 argument when trying to open
the container:
$ cryptsetup open --test-passphrase -T 0 mycontainer
cryptsetup: src/utils_luks.c:321: luks_try_token_unlock: Assertion `tries >= 1' 
failed.
Aborted                    cryptsetup open --test-passphrase -T 0 mycontainer
