[PATCH] Documentation: power: swsusp: Fix script for unswapping
From: Pali RohÃr
Date: Tue May 06 2014 - 07:02:42 EST
System can have mmaped also character devices (e.g dri devices by X) or deleted
files. Running cat on character devices is really bad idea (system can hang) so
run cat only on regular files. Also mmaped files can have spaces in filenames.

A: Try running
-cat `cat /proc/[0-9]*/maps | grep / | sed 's:.* /:/:' | sort -u` > /dev/null
+cat /proc/[0-9]*/maps | grep / | sed 's:.* /:/:' | sort -u | while read file

after resume. swapoff -a; swapon -a may also be useful.
