Which are supposed to be most interesting. It's definitely better than the current broken timestamps, but the real and final solution is to have exact information about system suspends. It would be enough to maintain in kernel memory a simple log with <bootime> <monotonic> <state_change> and export this info by /proc/suspendlog, after that we can all re-count /dev/kmsg timestamps to something useful.
