I've just installed f37 on a new lenovo x1 carbon.
One thing, the installation didn't setup any swap (other than zswap).
After a bit of reading I found
sudo btrfs filesystem mkswapfile -s 32G /swapfile
But:
sudo swapon -v /swapfile
swapon: /swapfile: found signature [pagesize=4096, signature=swap]
swapon: /swapfile: pagesize=4096, swapsize=1073741824, devsize=34359738368
Although I created 32G swapfile, only 1G is used.
swapon
NAME TYPE SIZE USED PRIO
/dev/zram0 partition 8G 6.3M 100
/swapfile file 1024M 0B -2
What's wrong?
Thanks,

Something wrong with btrfs filesystem mkswap. If I do it the old-fashioned
way:
# truncate -s 0 swapfile# chattr +C swapfile# fallocate -l 2G
swapfile# chmod 0600 swapfile# mkswap swapfile# swapon swapfile
It works correctly
