S1/Power On Suspend (POS) is a low power state. In
this state, no system context (CPU or chipset) is lost
and hardware maintains all system context.

this state, power is supplied only to essential
components such as main memory and wakeup-
capable devices. The system context is saved to
main memory, and context is restored from the
memory when a “wakeup” event occurs.

Depends on OS to select S1 or S3.
