Today I tested the series with a Windows Server 2012 R2 guest as well. As I had written before, Windows' default display driver for the GOP doesn't support S3. I installed the work-in-progress WDDM driver (version 0.2) for the QXL card. (The binary I used is publicly available, but I'm still waiting for an OK whether I can reference it.) It only installs if the revision property of the qxl-vga device is set to 3 on the qemu command line, as in -device qxl-vga,[...],revision=3 With the driver installed, the "psshutdown -d" command from PsTools: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897541.aspx suspends the VM. I can resume the VM with the usual "system_wakeup" qemu monitor command. The display doesn't come back (probably a problem in the guest driver). However, the VM does work -- I can continue entering commands at the SAC prompt over serial ("virsh console"). For example I opened a Command Prompt channel with the "cmd" command, switched to it with the "ch -sn Cmd0001" command, logged in, and then I could ping (using the normal ping utility) a public host. I could even re-invoke the psshutdown utility, suspend-resume-ping again, and then power off the VM gracefully ("psshutdown -k"). I think this again qualifies as a successful test for the series.
