With some upcoming patches to save/restore the Hyper-V drivers related states, a Linux VM running on Hyper-V will be able to hibernate. When a Linux VM hibernates, unluckily we must disable the memory hot-add/remove and balloon up/down capabilities in the hv_balloon driver (drivers/hv/hv_balloon.c), because these can not really work according to the design of the related back-end driver on the host. By default, Hyper-V does not enable the virtual ACPI S4 state for a VM; on recent Hyper-V hosts, the administrator is able to enable the virtual ACPI S4 state for a VM, so we hope to use the presence of the virtual ACPI S4 state as a hint for hv_balloon to disable the aforementioned capabilities. In this way, hibernation will work more reliably, from the user's perspective. By marking acpi_sleep_state_supported() non-static, we'll be able to implement a hv_is_hibernation_supported() API in the always-built-in module arch/x86/hyperv/hv_init.c, and the API will be called by hv_balloon.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
