Allow resume from hibernation #58
Conversation

Very nice. But I don't think this will work after install since the swapfile does not exist yet. It is created by a service on first boot. |

Thanks. However I think this PR will be superceeded by the frzr rework carried over by me and @ruineka so that the user can choose the size instead of reling on a service to create the file, manually resizing and having to update before having that working...

Oh, this seems like a better solution since you don't need an additional partition.

We can bump the default swap size to something more reasonable to support hibernate. Or allow the user to change the size in the advanced menu in the installer.

Both have upsides and downsides, we will need to discuss to pick the least poisonous poison
This PR is aimed at appending to kernel boot parameters the btrfs offset and uuid of the file /home/swapfile when such file is present.
This in turn allows an initramfs that was generated with mkinitcpio containtaining the "resume" hook so resume from hibernation.
This PR is therefore required to support sleeping consoles that only supports S5 status.
