I have spent a day investigating the problem. I was inserting empty
infinite loop into the different points of wakeup process trying to find
the place where system reboots. I just haven't found any other feedback
channel as video is not initialized and beeper is not working for some
reason.
As result, I have found, that if I am inserting:
qqq:
jmp qqq
lines before line 98 of acpi_switch.S:
movl $MSR_MTRRdefType, %ecx
movl WAKEUP_CTX(mtrr), %eax
wrmsr
system hangs, but if I insert it just after them - system reboots.
With just commenting this three lines I was able to get successful
suspend/resume with UP amd64 kernel!!!
Here is problems I still have now:
- SMP kernel resume is not working, system reboots while doing
acpi_wakeup_cpus();
- SATA controller does not resumes correctly, it dies for some reason,
reporting timeouts on any request;
- text mode video does not restores on resume, while Xorg graphic one
does. hw.acpi.reset_video=1 does not help, it just hanging resume process.
