Turns out it (encryption) appears to be blameless here.
Just a guess (I also have encrypted partitions with XFS on top). I think that the system does encription based on cluster or sector whatever. The smallest assignation unit that the filesystem may use. Anything larger would have to consider where a file starts and ends... so no, base it on sectors. Doing that way, you can not have whole partition corruption, or large corruption. Just so many sectors would become corrupt, and thus the filesystem on top corrupted. Correct the filesystem on top and the encryption layer is also corrected transparently... -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
