NAME
       systemd-cryptsetup@.service, systemd-cryptsetup - Full disk decryption
       logic
SYNOPSIS
       systemd-cryptsetup@.service
       /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-cryptsetup
DESCRIPTION
       systemd-cryptsetup@.service is a service responsible for setting up
       encrypted block devices. It is instantiated for each device that
       requires decryption for access.
       systemd-cryptsetup@.service will ask for hard disk passwords via the
       password agent logic[1], in order to query the user for the password
       using the right mechanism at boot and during runtime.
       At early boot and when the system manager configuration is reloaded,
       /etc/crypttab is translated into systemd-cryptsetup@.service units by
       systemd-cryptsetup-generator(8).
