state: Suspend-To-Idle ACPI state: S0 Label: "freeze" This state is a generic, pure software, light-weight, system sleep state. It allows more energy to be saved relative to runtime idle by freezing user space and putting all I/O devices into low-power states (possibly lower-power than available at run time), such that the processors can spend more time in their idle states. This state can be used for platforms without Power-On Suspend/Suspend-to-RAM support, or it can be used in addition to Suspend-to-RAM (memory sleep) to provide reduced resume latency. It is always supported.
