[gentoo-user] hibernate failing for 4.15.1 kernel

[Bill Kenworthy]

Hi all,

    are there hibernation (to disk) issues with gentoo-sources 4.15.1? 
(fails or hard locks on hibernate, oops on resume if it does hibernate
and shutdown)

I am using the settings which have worked reliably with the 4.14 and
earlier versions (surface pro4, gentoo-sources without extra patches)

Thank you.

Yes.

You don't need to do anything specific here.

You should run that command after any systemd upgrade, but
specifically after upgrading from a version prior to 234.

[gentoo-user] preparing for the "systemd rootprefix migration"

[allan gottlieb]

I run a stable system using gnome3 and hence systemd, specifically
systemd-236-r5.  My bootloader is grub2.  I do *not* have an EFI
platform and do *not* have an initramfs.
I do *not* have a separate /usr filesystem.

The news item says that, in preparation for the 237 release and the
likely removal of the symlinks
   /usr/lib/systemd/systemd and
   /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-shutdown
we should update our boot config to reference init=/lib/systemd/system

1.  Updating the boot config to reference init=/lib/systemd/system seems
to mean a 1-line change in /etc/default/grub
  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd" -->
  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="init=/lib/systemd/systemd"
followed by the usual
   grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
Is that it?

2.  What should I be doing to prepare for the removal of the
/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-shutdown symlink?

3.  "After upgrading, please run systemctl daemon-reexec".  Which
upgrade is being referred to?  Is it the upgrade to the 237 release,
with the likely removal of the two symlinks.

Thanks in advance,
allan

Sanity check that you have all of the necessary modules installed
(e.g., "mdraid*" "raid5rec").

These have appeared now. I don't know precisely what I did to achieve that, 
but I have installed a few versions over the last few days.
