Hi Richard, thank you for your reply, but that didn't fix the problem. It is more that at the moment when cryptsetup tries to configure the cryptdevice on /dev/zvol/rpool/swap, the zpool is not imported. So cryptsetup runs in timeout and drops me in a initramfs shell.
When I import the pool without mounting anything (zpool import -N rpool) the device is there and I can exit the initramfs shell and cryptsetup succeeds. I had this bug in the cryptsetup bug list for a while and nothing happened. So I thought the ZFS people might be more interested ;-). In my opinion it is just the wrong order during boot. The zpool has to be imported at the time when cryptsetup starts. Is there any reason it is other way round?

Timing problem? Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Hi, first of all: I don't know if it is a bug in cryptsetup-initramfs or zfs-initramfs or another one. The problem is that since my upgrade from bionic to cosmic the cryptsetup tries too early to setup my cryptswap device which is on a zvol. cryptsetup: Waiting for encrypted source device /dev/zvol/rpool/swap... ALERT! encrypted source device /dev/zvol/rpool/swap does not exist, can't unlock cryptswap1. ... After timeout I find myself in a initramfs-shell (initramfs). When I do zpool list there is no zpool importet. After zpool import -N rpool ^D the cryptsetup succeeds.
