From: guix-commits
Subject: 05/06: services: swap: Allow for UUIDs and file system labels.
Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2020 20:15:35 -0400 (EDT)

civodul pushed a commit to branch master
in repository guix.

commit 81c3dd9cad29f2b0999aa1f22b3a7d4c04f1a842
Author: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
AuthorDate: Fri Oct 23 11:46:21 2020 +0200

    services: swap: Allow for UUIDs and file system labels.
    
    * gnu/services/base.scm (swap-service-type)[device-lookup, device-name]:
    New variables.
    Add 'modules' field to 'shepherd-service'.  In 'start' and 'stop', use
    'device-lookup' to resolve UUIDs and labels.
    * doc/guix.texi (operating-system Reference): Adjust accordingly.
