[Impact]
This change contains two parts, the first is adding support for
- KVM and guest support for the PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 (hibernate) call
And the second part is:
- Guest kernel support for clean boot on demand
For KVM and guest support for the PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 (hibernate) call:
PSCI v1.3 adds support for SYSTEM_OFF2 which is analogous to ACPI S4
state.
This will allow hosting environments to determine that a guest is
hibernated rather than just powered off, and ensure that they preserve
the virtual environment appropriately to allow the guest to resume
safely (or bump the hardware_signature in the FACS to trigger a clean
reboot instead).
For Guest kernel support for clean boot on demand:
The FACS field in the ACPI table is optional, but can be used
communicate the hardware_signature field. If this field changes on
resuming from a hibernation a clean reboot should happen rather than
the resume from hibernation.
On hardware reduced platforms[0] this field may exist but it is not
exposed currently.
[Fix]
The changes for KVM and guest support for the PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2
(hibernate) call come from:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240312135958.727765-1-dwmw2@infradead.org
The changes for Guest kernel support for clean boot on demand come
from:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240312134148.727454-1-dwmw2@infradead.org
Latest patches have been picked from:
- noble/mantic:

- jammy:
https://git.infradead.org/users/dwmw2/linux.git/shortlog/refs/heads/psci-hibernate-5.15
[Test Plan]
AWS test.
[Where problems could occur]
If on hardware reduced platforms that incorrectly support/advertise the
FACS field, hibernation may break if it returns a hardware signature
that changes.
