Solved: Hibernation still not working.

Hello!

I am now continuing my journey in trying to get hibernation to work on that painful Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 ( My recommendation: Don't get one!)

I have setup the kernel command line like this:

[ 0.000000] Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-linux-zen root=UUID=b0be043f-a4d2-4942-a774-92e16ecf5193 rw zswap.enabled=0 rootfstype=ext4 loglevel=3 amdgpu.audio=0 amd.ppfeaturemask=0xfff7ffff usbcore.autosuspend=-1 btusb.enable_autosuspend=0 amd_pstate=passive resume=UUID=992be7b9-d215-4446-aecf-90e3c441b73b

This indeed is the UUID of the swap partition:

$sudo blkid /dev/nvme0n1p8
/dev/nvme0n1p8: LABEL="swap" UUID="992be7b9-d215-4446-aecf-90e3c441b73b" TYPE="swap" PARTLABEL="swap" PARTUUID="1d1df815-ed7b-417d-9000-a8520e6de1c3"

The only error I could find when grepping dmesg was:

9.317162] systemd[1]: Clear Stale Hibernate Storage Info was skipped because of an unmet condition check (ConditionPathExists=/sys/firmware/efi/efivars/HibernateLocation-8cf2644b-4b0b-428f-9387-6d876050dc67).

I vaguely remember having recreated and/or moved the swap partition about a year, ago (probably while migrating to a bigger SSD), I can't remember if hibernation ever worked, though.
Is it possible (because of the different UUID) that somewhere in the system still the old UUID is manifested?
An EFI-Variable named "HibernationLocation->UUID>" does not exist at all btw.
Due to steadily updating the system, 'mkinitcpi -P' and 'update-grub' have been executed a lot of times since.

Thank you!

Did you forget to add the resume hook to mkinitcpio.conf?
Otherwise:

The only error I could find when grepping dmesg was:

Don't grep, look - and look at the system journal since the hibernation efforts might fail in userspace.

Thanks! The missing resume hook was it! And after I read your post I remembered that I had removed it, because my system once was in a state where it could not boot with this hook enabled.
Well, now for the other hundreds issues with this notebook

Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
