. The resume process checks for the presence of the resume device,
if found, it then checks the contents for the hibernation image signature.
If both are found, it resumes the hibernation image.
. The resume process may be triggered in two ways:
1) During lateinit: If resume=/dev/your_swap_partition is specified on
the kernel command line, lateinit runs the resume process. If the
resume device has not been probed yet, the resume process fails and
bootup continues.
2) Manually from an initrd or initramfs: May be run from
the init script by using the /sys/power/resume file. It is vital
that this be done prior to remounting any filesystems (even as
read-only) otherwise data may be corrupted.
