Benchmarking the ACPI S3 suspend and resume times with `sleepgraph.py
-config config/suspend-callgraph.cfg` [1], shows that the NVMe disk SAMSUNG
MZVKW512HMJP-00000 in the TUXEDO Book BU1406 takes between 0.3 and 1.4
seconds, holding up the suspend cycle.
The time is spent in `nvme_shutdown_ctrl()`.
### Linux 4.14.1-041401-generic

It’d be useful, if the Linux kernel logged such issues visibly to the user,
so that the hardware manufacturer can be contacted to fix the device
(probably the firmware).
In my opinion anything longer than 200 ms should be reported similar to [2],
and maybe worded like below.
NVMe took more than 200 ms to do suspend routine
What do you think?
The nvme spec guides toward longer times than that. I don't see the
point of warning users about things operating within spec.
I quickly glanced over NVM Express revision 1.3 specification [1] but
searching for *second *, I could not find something about this. Could
you please point me to the section?
In my opinion, it’s a good thing to point users to devices holding up
suspend.
Kind regards,
Paul
