            Bug ID: 251808
           Summary: boot: entering geli password fails
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.2-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: d8zNeCFG at aon.at

Scenario:
- FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE-p2 r368500M (also 12.2-RELEASE and 12.2-RELEASE-p1)
- Booting from ufs
- ZFS on geli with password prompt on boot
- The machine is cold booted.

Result:
- Sometimes (maybe 10% of boot attempts), it is not possible to successfully
enter the geli password. All entries are refused as wrong until no retries are
left.

Workaround:
- Shut off the machine and perform another cold boot.

Note:
- This started happening right after the installation of 12.2. It has never
happened before.
- This happens on multiple machines, all running the same 12.2 release.
