[PATCH v3 3/5] platform/x86/amd/pmc: Add delay_suspend module parameter
From: Daniel Gibson
Date: Tue May 12 2026 - 16:42:40 EST
Enabling the new delay_suspend module parameter delays suspend for
2.5 seconds which is known to help for some AMD-based Lenovo Laptops
that otherwise failed to send/receive events for key presses or the
lid switch after s2idle. Apparently the EC needs to do some things
in the background before suspend or it gets into a bad state.
There are many reports of AMD-based laptops (mostly but not exclusively
IdeaPads) about similar issues on the web; this parameter gives
affected users an easy way to try out if their issues have the same
root cause and to work around them until their specific device is added
to the quirks list.
The parameter description has a note encouraging users to report
their device so it can be added to the quirks list, inspired by a
similar request in parameter descriptions of the ideapad-laptop module.
The module parameter can be set to "1" to explicitly enable it,
"0" to disable it even on devices that are assumed to be affected,
or -1 (the default) to enable it if the device is assumed to be affected
(according to fwbug_list[])
