Well, there's all of:

t23% sysctl -ad | grep do_power_resume
hw.pci.do_power_resume: Transition from D3 -> D0 on resume.

unless you mean RTFS :) where there's:

t23% sh -c 'find /usr -type f -exec grep -Hi do_power_resume {} \; 2>/dev/null'
/usr/src/sys/dev/pci/pci.c:static int pci_do_power_resume = 1;
/usr/src/sys/dev/pci/pci.c:TUNABLE_INT("hw.pci.do_power_resume", &pci_do_power_resume);
/usr/src/sys/dev/pci/pci.c:SYSCTL_INT(_hw_pci, OID_AUTO, do_power_resume, CTLFLAG_RW,
/usr/src/sys/dev/pci/pci.c:    &pci_do_power_resume, 1,
/usr/src/sys/dev/pci/pci.c:     if (pci_do_power_resume)
/usr/src/sys/dev/pci/pci.c:     if (pci_do_power_resume)
Binary file /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC/pci.o matches
Binary file /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC/kernel matches
Binary file /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC/kernel.debug matches
Binary file /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC/kernel.symbols matches

.. including manpages, handbook, faq, articles etc.  Is that it?  I know 
what D3->D0 means but it hardly describes when/how/why to {,not} use it, 
leaving me surprised it would make S3 resume work in this case, and why?

Ah, when did that break?  It worked fine on my old Compaq 1500c ('99!) 
on FreeBSD 5.5, s4bios=1, though for another reason I couldn't usually 
run ACPI on it, and APM STD and STR work. I found a message from someone 
with a Dell Inspiron something a few years ago reporting S4BIOS working, 
modulo a fixable screen resume issue that he had resuming from S3 also.

Of course you needed a DOS slice, probably as s1, with a pre-allocated 
hibernation file that the BIOS can find to use, but it had that anyway.

It could be argued that acpiconf ought to just ignore S4 requests unless 
hw.acpi.s4bios=1, where it has some chance of working ..

cheers, Ian
