    The rounds part is probably added to the salt and doesn't replace it. If the default number of rounds (5,000) for SHA512-crypt is used, then there's no need for an explicit rounds parameter. However, if it's increased to 65,536 like in your case, then it's necessary to explicitly specific rounds=65536. This is not an issue at all. Commented Oct 14, 2024 at 15:58
