I've just installed f37 on a new lenovo x1 carbon.
One thing, the installation didn't setup any swap (other than zswap).
After a bit of reading I found
sudo btrfs filesystem mkswapfile -s 32G /swapfile
But:
 sudo swapon -v /swapfile
swapon: /swapfile: found signature [pagesize=4096, signature=swap]
swapon: /swapfile: pagesize=4096, swapsize=1073741824, devsize=34359738368
Although I created 32G swapfile, only 1G is used.
swapon

What's wrong?

Something is wrong with how it creates the swap format.  Just run "mkswap /swapfile" and it will be

I totally missed the size discrepancy.

I believe in new btrfs versions, you can use:

# btrfs filesystem mkswapfile swapfile
# swapon swapfile

That's what he did, but the swapfs on the volume had the wrong size. So a simple run of mkswap fixes that. It's still the same volume with all the same attributes, just different data.
