Why not
take the best from both swsusp and suspend2, and get a nice
implementation into the kernel, that works most of the times !
Well, this is the ten thousand dollar question - why not indeed? Pavel
says "Problems are in drivers, and drivers are shared", but suspend2
works around this by unloading certain drivers before suspending, and
otherwise hacking around the difficulties. This is, I think, what is
meant when suspend2 is said to support scripting. It may not be a
pleasing approach from a theoretical standpoint, but it seems to be the
only way to get a reliable implementation in a timely fashion --
reliable in the sense of being most likely to work on a randomly chosen
machine without custom configuration.
