Beta testing • Re: rpi-swap (Trixie only) - zram-based swap

Code:

$ tree /run/systemd/generator//run/systemd/generator/├── dev-zram0.swap├── rpi-setup-loop@var-swap.service.d│   └── resize-swap.conf├── swap.target.wants│   └── dev-zram0.swap -> ../dev-zram0.swap├── systemd-zram-setup@zram0.service.d│   └── bindings.conf└── tmp.mount

This is on Lite, upgraded to Trixie with the provided guide.

Do you see this behaviour on every boot?

The set of drop-ins that have generated seems inconsistent for the automatic 'zram+file' mode: you've got 'resize-swap.conf' and 'bindings.conf' but not 'mark-pages-idle.conf' and 'ordering.conf'. It's also odd that systemd saw 'rpi-zram-writeback.timer' but then it's no longer there when you inspect /run/systemd/generator.
