tar -cvJf backup.tar.xz --exclude=/backup.tar.xz --one-file-system /  


--emptyfile /var/swapfile   alias EXCLUDE , touch > filename >   /var/swapfile  @  tar.xz (etc)   

touching the the swap file crashes tar...  , however a empty placeholder wanted root owned... , as it needs to be , as its were RPI-3 adds swap ram. 

so for this use case just /tmp/something/ touch swapfile add as /var/swapfile in tar.xz  or append to archive at the path an empty file...
