We had a Power Management BOF there, among others, Patrick Mochel,
Greg KH, Andy, Paulus, Jeff Garzik, ...

Ok, so you first push as much as you can to swap to free half
of memory. Then, when you say you copy used memory, I assume you copy
all of RAM including kernel memory (kernel data structures etc...)
right ?

What do you mean by "stop everything" ? Stop user processes ? Kernel
threads ? both ? Then, you only save device state (and then suspend
devices) after you have "stopped everything" ?

Ben.
