An exciting post-Christmas patch series out on the Linux kernel mailing list this morning is proposing a new runtime standby ABI that is similar in nature to the "Modern Standby" functionality found with Microsoft Windows.

Antheas Kapenekakis sent out the patch series today proposing this new runtime standby ABI for Linux. Antheas Kapenekakis is one of the developers heavily involved in the Linux gaming handheld space with working on the OneXPlayer driver, ASUS ROG Ally improvements, MSI handheld improvements, and more.

Modern Standby is the thing that causes your notebook to heat up when closing the lid and putting it into your backpack.

It only really works on my Surface, on my work's ThinkPad it merely mostly works, on my private Asus gaming notebook it's entirely broken.

Old standby on my Steam Deck is what works most reliable in my household.
