We consider a dark electroweak phase transition, during which a baryon asymmetry in the dark neutrons and an equal lepton asymmetry in the dark Dirac neutrinos can be simultaneously induced by the CP-violating reflection of the dark fermions off the expanding dark Higgs bubbles. The Yukawa couplings for generating the ordinary Majorana neutrino masses can partially convert the dark lepton asymmetry to an ordinary baryon asymmetry in association with the ordinary sphaleron processes. The dark neutron can have a determined mass to serve as a dark matter particle. By further imposing a proper mirror symmetry, the Majorana neutrino mass matrix can have a form of linear seesaw while its Dirac CP phase can provide a unique source for the required CP violation.
