How does Linux move from an awake machine to a hibernating one? How does it then manage to restore all state? These questions led me to read way too much C in trying to figure out how this particular hardware/software boundary is navigated.

    On Asus motherboards you can enable ‘Memory Context Restore’, and it’ll remember the training. Unfortunately it seems rapid changes in the weather make my system unstable with it on.

      I have an MSI motherboard. Memory Context Restore shaves significant time off of boots, but it is still extremely slow. Just a hang before I see POST complete.
