I actually have made a full patch for APIC I think (thanks for your work as it reminded me about needing to resume lapic). You can find it at http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/patches/apic_resume.patch It changes the x86 interrupt code to resume interrupt controllers, not interrupt sources. It then uses this to make sure the 8259A PICs are properly reset on resume as well as resuming the local APIC. Can you test this w/o SMP and make sure it works? > 3) SMP.

Probably we need to get onto the BSP via sched_bind() during suspend and then stop the other CPUs using stop_cpus(). The hard part, however, is properly resuming the darn things. Do you know what mode the CPUs come back up in? It looks like we need to resend startup IPIs to them from your patch. -- John Baldwin
