Is there any Suspend-Resume support in the sparc64 kernel?

TIA,

Do you mean suspend to RAM or hibernation?

I mean suspend to RAM, which is what I believe the Suspend-Resume 
referred to in the document 
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/805-4433/6j46udqi7?l=en&a=view&q=power+management 
also refers to.

My uninformed research into it gives me an indication that it is not. 
And I'm curious as to whether there was some history to its possible 
exclusion, or it is just something that no one has ever attempt to 
implement.

Thanks in advance,
Shaddy

I think no one has ever tried it, although you should ask SPARC architecture
developers/maintainers about that.

Thanks,
Rafael

Noone every tried it, AFAICT. sparcs are big and power-hungry beasts,
so there was not real pressing need to suspend them...
