I think this S3 resume would be far faster than any resume based on AML bytecodes. The LinuxBIOS step would be very fast -- almost 100% of linuxbios would be bypassed. Linux could then very quickly bring the rest of the system back up.


dumb question: can linuxbios bypass all of pci init etc in this case?

not dumb at all.

I would probably put the "linuxbios bypass" in the mainboard-specific function BEFORE hardwaremain is called. So hardwaremain() would not be entered at all.
