[SOLVED] Hibernation fails

Question

Hello
I have a laptop with Arch (Kernel 3.12.9-2) and KDE, and some problems with hibernation. After installation was working, using a swapfile, but i noticed it was too small, so I made a bigger one, and then it stopped working.
fstab entry seems ok, I have resume hook in mkinitcpio.conf and resume options in GRUB.
System log shows that PM can't find a swap area, both if I hibernate from KDE and terminal
feb 04 16:45:00 giulio kernel: PM: Cannot find swap device, try swapon -a.
feb 04 16:45:00 giulio kernel: PM: Cannot get swap writer
swapon -a gives no output, while swapon -s gives
/home/swapfile file 5242876 38324 0
Someone has any idea?
