Description Alexander Lavrinenko 2005-10-20 05:33:33 UTC 
Greetings! 
 
Please add bootshpash support for suspend-to-disk/resume cycle - observing 
lots of debug messages everytime during suspend/resume is ugly :(
Comment 1 Pavel Machek 2005-10-21 11:10:34 UTC 
Feel free to submit a patch :-). Against swsusp3, preferably. Yes, it is planned, no, do not expect it any time soon.
Comment 2 Alexander Lavrinenko 2005-10-21 12:10:30 UTC 
Well, is it scheduled for SUSE 10.1 or later release?

TIA
Comment 3 Pavel Machek 2006-01-11 23:01:21 UTC 
Okay, now we are close enough to have infrastructure to actually do the splashing. It will not make it to SUSE 10.1, but next release might be possible.

Rafael has code to do suspend from userland, and about half of it is already in -mm. When thats in mainline, we can do esc-to-abort, compression, encryption, etc.
Comment 6 Pavel Machek 2006-01-22 20:30:09 UTC 
...goes to Stefan, because he knows where to reassign it :-). BTW I've already implemented "enter-to-abort-suspend" in my working copy, and userland parts should be available at suspend.sf.net. Any help is welcome.

regarding comment #2: it will not make it into 10.1, sorry for that, but the underlying technology is just too new yet.
Comment 9 Holger Macht 2006-01-24 22:49:20 UTC 
I played around with it a little bit and it seems to work. I had a problem where kacpid loaded my cpu to 99% after resuming. But this might be another problem and I have to look at this issue more closely... 

Pavel, the c files you are hosting on sourceforge will be the most recent implementations of the userspace stuff, right? So possible enhancements I have I can send to you? Or should this stay as simple as possible to be used as some kind of example or template and we should host our own implementations?

Closing in favour of feature 100222. I think INVALID fits best because it is no real bug ;-)
Comment 13 Stefan Behlert 2006-04-07 13:48:15 UTC 
Means: It will be available in 10.2 - if nothing critical hapens :)
