This allows the user to tell the kernel that they know better (namely, they secured their swap properly), and that it can enable hibernation. I've been using this for about a year now, as it doesn't seem like proper secure hibernation was going to be implemented back then, and it's now been a year since I've been building my own kernels with this patch, so getting this upstreamed would save some CO2 from me building my own kernels every upgrade. Some other not-me users have also tested the patch: https://community.frame.work/t/guide-fedora-36-hibernation-with-enabled-secure-boot-and-full-disk-encryption-fde-decrypting-over-tpm2/25474/17 Signed-off-by: Kelvie Wong <kelvie@xxxxxxxxx> --- Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt | 5 +++++ kernel/power/hibernate.c | 10 +++++++++- 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt b/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt index 426fa892d311..54785faba9e0 100644 --- a/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt @@ -2804,6 +2804,11 @@ to extract confidential information from the kernel are also disabled. + lockdown_hibernate [HIBERNATION] + Enable hibernation even if lockdown is enabled.
