So I just did this using the following commands:
fallocate --length 8GiB /mnt/swapfile
chmod 600 /mnt/swapfile
mkswap /mnt/swapfil
When you have a notebook install, you are locked into the drive you have
and whatever you did on the partitioning, you are stuck with, for the
most part. No adding a new drive with additional partitions.
I originally deleted the default LVM setup and then created the ext4

sure the OP doesn't need GPT.
Not strongly/imperative !
and my suggestions are far away from just "extend swap".
but he needs to save his data anyway (backup) before he moves his partitions

You would have to copy all the data off and back on; might as well
re-install.

In my view/with my understanding:

Yes.
Or make the file 8GB and make it the first swap unit with the physical

Suspend doesn't use swap, tha
