Wasn‘t acpi always a shitshow? I remembered https://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7279 https://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7279 even s3 was shitty , s2idle is just a „software wrapper“ around a already broken thing. I think the only way to fix any kind of power management issues would mean to replace the whole system with a more modern interface, which probably would be extremely hard to do, since every hardware vendor and os would need to change a lot of things.
Heck we actually have problems with modern standby on windows on dell precision tower workstations, we even tried windows 11. but sometimes it will just fail and it will try to go to standby and than it fails and it will resume in a cycle, it will not resume and you hear the power cycle, it’s the biggest hibernation shit show that I’ve seen so far, the thirst things I do on these machines is disable it.
It’s the same thing as https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/test/weg/delivering-a-great-startup-and-shutdown-experience#recommended-goals https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/test/weg/... aka fake s5, which is just stupid on nvme disks.
No software around acpi does not fix it, it makes it worse.
