Bug ID: 202703
Summary: geom_eli_passphrase_prompt doesn't work on Dell
Precision WorkStation T5400
Product: Base System
Version: 10.2-RELEASE
Hardware: amd64
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: freebs...@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: ma...@blisses.org
geom_eli_passphrase_prompt isn't working on a Dell Precision WorkStation T5400
I've got here, which uses an identical set-up to another system I have - two
SATA disks, ZFS maintaining a bootpool across them, GELI across the rest and
ZFS maintaining a pool on that.
I note the GELI password prompt on boot, enter the passphrase, and then get the
normal mid-boot passphrase when the kernel tries to mount the root filesystem,
which requires a frantic whacking of the enter key until I see a linefeed,
after which I'm told my passphrase was incorrect but I'm given a chance to
authenticate, which succeeds and continues into the boot.

--- Comment #1 from Mason Loring Bliss <ma...@blisses.org> ---
I've now seen this on another system running 10.2-RELEASE as well. It seems
that the USB keyboard is not properly initialized or is otherwise consistently
in a strange state when the prompt is presented.
As a workaround, whacking backspace once before entering a passphrase seems to
get the keyboard into a better state. That said, it's not a matter of simply
eating a key, as whacking something *other* than backspace evidently puts
something into the queue and results in a bad passphrase.

Is this going to be triaged at some point? It's a fairly annoying issue. Is
there some process in place to ensure that bugs don't sit forever without even
a tentative poke?
