Swap encryption (via LUKS) and Hibernation (disk suspend)



Hello,

After digging around manuals, search engines and forums, I have come to the conclusion that trying to suspend to disk (hibernate) is a hit or miss when an encrypted swap, via LUKS, is used.

What is the state of of doing hibernation with encrypted swap in Debian? After doing a "fresh install" using the amazing Debian installer which pre-configures LUKS, what extra steps if any, are needed to accomplish this goal?

The assumption being that on a non-encrypted system, hibernation works without problems.

Cheers.
