[Bug 903321] Re: Hibernation fails irreversibly ("not enough swap space")
matteo sisti sette, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:
apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>
Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER
where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5
This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing
If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER
As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
Hibernation fails irreversibly ("not enough swap space")
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Most of the times (but not always) when I hibernate, the error message
appears: "MP: not enough swap space" and the hibernation hangs
forever. Or it seems to complete (meaning the power goes off) but then
when I turn on the computer it fresh boots instead of resuming.
If the swap space is really insufficient, and if this is really the
cause of the issue, there are at least a couple of bugs:
1. Hibernation should be atomic: either it can complete succesfully or
it should be reversed completely, or not be initiated at all. It must
be guaranteed that the system never ever finds itself in an
intermediate state where hibernation cannot complete but cannot be
reversed. All conditions that are needed to complete succesfully
should be checked before the hibernation is initiated. Checking
whether there is enough swap space is particularly easy, I guess.
2. I din't choose the amount of swap space when I installed ubuntu,
nor did I change it afterwards, nor did I ever increase the amount of
RAM after installation. The size of the swap partition is the one that
was proposed by the installer by default. The installer should propose
by default a swap partition size that is guaranteed to allow the
system to function properly, including hibernation. AND if the user
chooses a size for the swap partition that _may_ be insufficient a
warning should be issued before allowing the installation to begin.
