The ASRock E350M1 has a Radeon HD 6310.

$ sudo lspci -s 0:01.0 -nn -v<br>

With Debian Sid/unstable with Linux 4.9.25 suspend and resume times are benchmarked with pm-graph [1], and the command below.<br>
<br>
```<br>
sudo ./analyze_suspend.py -config config/suspend-callgraph.cfg<br>
```<br>
<br>
It turns out that with 258 ms the radeon module takes the majority of the time during suspend.<br>
<br>
In that cycle one `radeon_bo_evict_vram` call takes the longest with 198 ms.<br>
