Missing firmware is in package linux-firmware.

You can get it with

sudo apt install linux-firmware

for the second part, I know only how it works with an swap partition, not with a swapfile

lsblk -f | grep swap

so you can found if you have a swap partition.

sudo nano /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume

then add the uuid there in this manner.

RESUME=UUID=your uuid

besides, it is only a given Info not an error.

sudo update-initramfs -u -k $(uname -r)

Will update the initrd from your current running kernel.
