Title:
Encrypted swap won't load on 20.04 with zfs root
Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in zfs-linux source package in Focal:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
Encrypted swap partitions may not load correctly with ZFS root, due to
ordering cycle on zfs-mount.service.
[Test Plan]
1. Install Ubuntu 20.04 using ZFS-on-root
2. Add encrypted partition to /etc/crypttab:
swap /dev/nvme0n1p1 /dev/urandom
swap,cipher=aes-xts-plain64,size=256
3. Add swap partition to /etc/fstab:
/dev/mapper/swap none swap sw 0 0
4. Reboot and check whether swap has loaded correctly, and whether boot logs
show ordering cycle:

[ SKIP ] Ordering cycle found, skipping Mount ZFS filesystems
[Where problems could occur]
Since we're changing the zfs-mount-generator service, regressions could show
up during mounting of ZFS partitions. We should thoroughly test different
scenarios of ZFS such as ZFS-on-root, separate ZFS partitions and the presence
of swap, to make sure all partitions are mounted correctly and no ordering
cycles are present.
Below is a list of suggested test scenarios that we should check for
regressions:
1. ZFS-on-root + encrypted swap (see "Test Plan" section above)
2. Encrypted root + separate ZFS partitions
3. ZFS on LUKS
4. ZFS on dm-raid
Although scenario 4 is usually advised against (ZFS itself should
handle RAID), it's a good smoke test to validate that mount order is
being handled correctly.
[Other Info]
This has been fixed upstream by the following commits:
* ec41cafee1da Fix a dependency loop [0]
* 62663fb7ec19 Fix another dependency loop [1]
The patches above have been introduced in version 2.1.0, with upstream
backports to zfs-2.0. In Ubuntu, it's present in Groovy and later
releases, so it's still needed in Focal.

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION
====================
root@eu1:/var/log# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
Release: 20.04
Codename: focal
root@eu1:/var/log# apt-cache policy cryptsetup
cryptsetup:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 2:2.2.2-3ubuntu2
Version table:
2:2.2.2-3ubuntu2 500
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/main amd64 Packages
OTHER BACKGROUND INFO:
======================
1. machine has 2 drives. each drive is partitioned into 2 partitions,
zfs and swap
2. Ubuntu 20.04 installed on ZFS root using debootstrap
(debootstrap_1.0.118ubuntu1_all)
3. The ZFS root pool is a 2 partition mirror (the first partition of
each disk)
4. /etc/crypttab is set up as follows:
swap
/dev/disk/by-id/nvme-SAMSUNG_MZVLB1T0HALR-00000_S3W6NX0M802914-part2
/dev/urandom swap,cipher=aes-xts-plain64,size=256
swap
/dev/disk/by-id/nvme-SAMSUNG_MZVLB1T0HALR-00000_S3W6NX0M802933-part2
/dev/urandom swap,cipher=aes-xts-plain64,size=256
WHAT I EXPECTED
===============
I expected machine would reboot and have encrypted swap that used two
devices under /dev/mapper
WHAT HAPPENED INSTEAD
=====================
On reboot, swap setup fails with the following messages in
/var/log/syslog:

Also, /dev/mapper does not contain any swap devices:
