CONFIG_HIBERNATION: Hibernation (aka Suspend-to-Disk) is known to broken on s390 since a long time - the architecure support for this will be removed from the kernel soon. Therefore this config option should be disabled.

CONFIG_PM is rather useless without CONFIG_HIBERNATION, therefore disable this as well.

Let me just double check with you about disabling CONFIG_PM, as it also supports runtime power management of devices. If CONFIG_PM is disabled devices will not be put into low power states when idle.

Yes, that's perfectly fine. There is now low power state for devices on s390.

I meant to write: There is _no_ low power state for devices on s390.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-focal' to 'verification-done-focal'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-focal' to 'verification-failed-focal'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
