What step would that be? And how it would be secure?
For this reason, I would like to write a custom hook to mount the root volume. Now, systemd boot doesn't have a concept of runtime hooks. Thus, I need to make a systemd unit that gets pulled in by cryptsetup.target in the place of systemd-cryptsetup@.service. (Basically, I need to replace the whole systemd-cryptsetup-generator and systemd-cryptsetup logic.)
It doesn't need to be in place of, you can simply have a unit that runs either before or after systemd-cryptsetup@. Or you can even override systemd-cryptsetup to require your unit. There are several options.
However, I really have no idea on how to achieve this. Should I write a custom mkinitcpio hook which completely bypasses sd-crypt/cryptsetup.target and instead starts a different unit with my own decryption logic? Or is there a way to hook into cryptsetup.target and instruct it to pull in my logic instead of systemd-cryptsetup*?
If you write a unit file and a script, they can probably be added to the FILES section and that would be it. Main issue is the enabling of the unit, so, for that, you would probably need a custom install hook.
Of course, the other possibility is to just stop using a systemd boot and instead setting up a busybox early userspace. Then it's just a matter of writing a shell script. However, since I'm already using systemd for everything - from the bootloader to userspace - I don't think it makes much sense to do that.
If you use the base hook, you already have busybox on the initramfs.
