<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="color:#1F497D">Thank you Alex, I think it’s a configuration issue on my part. The only feedback I really have for you about this patch is in NVMeAllocateMem in nvmeInit.c. On line 184, if the initial
allocation attempt failed, we try to allocate from node 0. I’d like to see this changed to MM_ANY_NODE_OK instead of specifically hard coding it for node 0. I know this isn’t something specific to your patch, but I think it will be a bit more generic and
flexible. </span><span style="color:#282828"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#44546A">Understood. However, the I/O that is not working is when entering S4 when the hiber-driver is loaded, as a boot device. This needs
to work regardless of any other issues being seen, otherwise S4 as a boot device is not functional in the OFA driver.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="color:#1F497D">Since I don’t think my changes will introduce the problem, I replaced the driver with tag “Patch#22_Hibernation_Support”, used our device as secondary drive and ran IOMeter to issue
IOs to the drive. I’ve seen IOmeter reporting errors after the system/our device came back from hibernation properly. If no IO accesses, S4 works fine as either boot drive or secondary drive. Could you please verify that as well in your side? Once it’s confirmed
as a known issue, we need to decide when to fix it.</span><span style="color:#282828"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
