Created attachment 144954 [details] Screenshot from callgraph excerpt With Linux 5.3-rc3 and pm-graph’s `sleepgraph.py` [1] measuring suspend times on the Dell OptiPlex 5040 with an external AMD graphics card, the driver needs 2.1 seconds to suspend the device, which is too long. $ lspci -nn -s 01: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.

The contents of vram have to be moved to system memory on suspend since vram is powered off. Depending on general memory pressure at suspend time it may take a while to get the contexts of vram into system ram.

Just to clarify, the VRAM on the external graphics device is powered off, correct? Are there any tools to analyze these delays?
