I agree, these kinds of function are common. My concern was how to trigger them
when running in a virtual machine running Linux with no vendor support for that

I was told over the weekend that Linux has a SigQuiesce signal that fires in
this situation. That at least points me in the right direction.
Sorry for the malformed and tangential question,
