Hi everyone, AWS EC2 engineering teams have reviewed the patch, and have merged the commit to upstream now.
https://github.com/aws/amazon-ec2-hibinit-agent/pull/22 commit a2303d269610a6e7415c5045766da605eaa7e30f From: Matthew Ruffell <[email protected]> Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2022 15:59:25 +1200 Subject: Swapon with maximum priority before hibernation Link: https://github.com/aws/amazon-ec2-hibinit-agent/commit/a2303d269610a6e7415c5045766da605eaa7e30f I have uploaded fresh debdiffs to the launchpad bug to account for minor version changes due to kinetic being the newest development release, and added the correct forwarded tag.
