Supporting hibernate (S4) on FreeBSD

Saturday 11:00 - 11:50

In this talk, we describe our current work in progress on supporting hibernate on FreeBSD. First, we outline the different high-level steps that are necessary. Then, we delve into how we actually implement them, including ACPI interfacing and programming, how we take a snapshot of kernel memory, save the image to disk and restore it on boot. Finally, we report on this development's status and, depending on progress, may call for testing it.
