I'm using kernel-4.6.6-300.fc24.x86_64 with the proprietary NVidia
driver, plus daily updates from the stable repos. Hibernation used to
work with previous kernels, but now regularly fails to wake up
properly, i.e. on restarting I get the BIOS screen followed by the boot
text console and select the first (newest) option as usual. So far so
good. Then after a few seconds I see the BIOS again, repeat the
selection, and get a full reboot.

Anyone else seeing this?

I saw it once or twice.
The reason was (in my case) that when I hibernated, I had USB devices
hooked up.
When I rebooted without plugginf in those devices, it behaved exactly as
you describe.
That's not the case in my setup. All USB devices have remained plugged
in between hibernation and awakening.
Same here. The problem is machine-dependent and afflicts newer machines more than the older ones, in my experience, perhaps because the former have been tested more (by all).

OK, one thing to check:

$ cat /etc/default/grub
GRUB_TIMEOUT=300
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)"
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=true
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16 $([ -x
/usr/sbin/rhcrashkernel-param ] && /usr/sbin/rhcrashkernel-param || :)
video=1366x768
resume=/dev/disk/by-uuid/281d4971-32b6-47e0-96a2-9bdc998a9b1c"
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="false"

Does yours have the line
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX  ??
The resume= setting is necessary to hibernate.
Once you set up this file , you will need to run
grub2-mkconfig  -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

and reboot, and hibernate and reboot again.

P.S: you must reboot into same OS you hibernated.
I should perhaps have mentioned that hibernation was working (almost)
perfectly up until a couple of kernel updates ago. I say "almost"
because Bluetooth sometimes recovers and sometimes doesn't, but the
same happens with suspend/resume so I don't think that's relevant.

I compared my current /etc/default/grub file with the oldest backup I
have, dated some time in June, and they are identical. In any case,
this is what's in it:

$ cat /etc/default/grub
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)"
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=true
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16 $([ -x /usr/sbin/rhcrashkernel-param ] && /usr/sbin/rhcrashkernel-param || :) rhgb quiet resume=UUID=1431e6d2-531e-46cd-8633-1cf878c6b2a1"
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"

I note that the last line has "true" instead of "false", so maybe it
shouldn't have worked before and now is failing correctly ...

poc
Yes - that must be it.
Have you changed it to false, and run
grub2-mkconfig
and rebooted, and hibernated and rebooted to see if it will
resume as it ought to?

Cheers,

JD
