Re:Cryptsetup 2.0.0 introduces new on-disk LUKS2 format by viraptor on Tuesday December 26, 2017 @12:11AM (#16007198)
After some time, I think I get it. If the key/iv is location-specific, trim may result in an abandoned block which will then be recreated somewhere else. This results in two blocks from the same logical location in two different flash locations. Unless I misunderstand something, the xts mode encryption uses location-based keys.
