cryptsetup debug

We have integrated the last 2 tags of buildroot on branch 2020.02 which include
a patch on cryptsetup following an upgrade of json-c package, but this patch
does not seems sufficient
Our cyphered partition cannot be opened which makes our product unusable
Attached the cryptsetup command failing in debug mode

A similar issue was found on cryptsetup gitlab
https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/-/issues/556

Upgrading to cryptsetup version from master branch solved the issue

Thanks for the report, should be fixed by
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/patch/20201011210738.22951-1-peter at korsgaard.com/
- Can you verify please?

It would be good with a runtime test for cryptsetup.

Hi,
The patch is working on our facility. 
Is there any reason why a patch instead of upgrading to cryptsetup 2.3.3 ?
That is what we did as a correction on our side and we are interested to know
if it is not safe. 
Regards
Dominique Tronche

(In reply to Dominique Tronche from comment #2)
Good to hear. On the LTS branch we only bump package versions if absolutely
needed. The 2.3.x version brings new features, so it is "safer" to just fix the
compatibility issue.
