Details

If we use resolve_device in the resume hook, it would be possible to use something like resume=LABEL=Swap or resume=UUID=... as it is possible for the root parameter.

Simple patch is attached but there might be better solutions as vanilla hibernation only needs major and minor. Tuxonice is not considered at all.

Thanks for the patch. It would have been nice if it not had so many unrelated changes. There's really only 2 lines that needs to be altered, but the hook does need some overall cleanup.

Got around to rewriting this, no idea if it works. Feel like giving the attached hook a test drive?

Standard hibernation with LABEL= works.

If you test for valid content of $resume you could also treat y as invalid as the user most likely has used resume without a value.

Hmmm, I see your point, but that's taken care of implicitly by resolve_device. It won't wait on an invalid device name -- it'll simply fail all the tests in the function and return 1. That will end the case statement back in the resume hook and it'll throw an error.
