Modern standby really took things backward for x86 laptops
35 0 ReplyWhat's modern standby?
11 0 ReplyIIRC it’s something about not actually going to S3 sleep to keep stuff like networking alive
20 0 ReplyYour CPU never actually sleeps, it stays in S0 (on). The CPU is still active and doing things, but it's in a "low power state".
In quotes because it's not low power at all. On one of my laptops S0 standby gets worse battery life than just actually being on.

Yeah I mean I get C-states for things that idle a lot, like homeservers, but i still don’t see the reasoning for outright replacing traditional suspend on computers. Now you have to worry if some random pcie device is going to up your consumption by 5 watts during suspension. Well, at least that’s only a big issue on laptops.
Sorry for rambling
