The power management subsystem provides a unified sysfs interface to
|
|
|
|
|
userspace, regardless of what architecture or platform one is
|
|
|
|
|
running. The interface exists in /sys/power/ directory (assuming sysfs
|
|
|
|
|
is mounted at /sys).
|
|
|
|
|
The power management subsystem provides userspace with a unified sysfs interface
|
|
|
|
|
for system sleep regardless of the underlying system architecture or platform.
|
|
|
|
|
The interface is located in the /sys/power/ directory (assuming that sysfs is
|
|
|
|
|
mounted at /sys).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/power/state controls system power state. Reading from this file
|
|
|
|
|
returns what states are supported, which is hard-coded to 'freeze',
|
|
|
|
|
'standby' (Power-On Suspend), 'mem' (Suspend-to-RAM), and 'disk'
|
|
|
|
|
(Suspend-to-Disk).
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/power/state is the system sleep state control file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Writing to this file one of those strings causes the system to
|
|
|
|
|
transition into that state. Please see the file
|
|
|
|
|
Documentation/power/states.txt for a description of each of those
|
|
|
|
|
states.
|
|
|
|
|
Reading from it returns a list of supported sleep states, encoded as:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'freeze' (Suspend-to-Idle)
|
|
|
|
|
'standby' (Power-On Suspend)
|
|
|
|
|
'mem' (Suspend-to-RAM)
|
|
|
|
|
'disk' (Suspend-to-Disk)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/power/disk controls the operating mode of the suspend-to-disk
|
|
|
|
|
mechanism. Suspend-to-disk can be handled in several ways. We have a
|
|
|
|
|
few options for putting the system to sleep - using the platform driver
|
|
|
|
|
(e.g. ACPI or other suspend_ops), powering off the system or rebooting the
|
|
|
|
|
system (for testing).
|
|
|
|
|
Suspend-to-Idle is always supported. Suspend-to-Disk is always supported
|
|
|
|
|
too as long the kernel has been configured to support hibernation at all
|
|
|
|
|
(ie. CONFIG_HIBERNATION is set in the kernel configuration file). Support
|
|
|
|
|
for Suspend-to-RAM and Power-On Suspend depends on the capabilities of the
|
|
|
|
|
platform.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally, /sys/power/disk can be used to turn on one of the two testing
|
|
|
|
|
modes of the suspend-to-disk mechanism: 'testproc' or 'test'. If the
|
|
|
|
|
suspend-to-disk mechanism is in the 'testproc' mode, writing 'disk' to
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/power/state will cause the kernel to disable nonboot CPUs and freeze
|
|
|
|
|
tasks, wait for 5 seconds, unfreeze tasks and enable nonboot CPUs. If it is
|
|
|
|
|
in the 'test' mode, writing 'disk' to /sys/power/state will cause the kernel
|
|
|
|
|
to disable nonboot CPUs and freeze tasks, shrink memory, suspend devices, wait
|
|
|
|
|
for 5 seconds, resume devices, unfreeze tasks and enable nonboot CPUs. Then,
|
|
|
|
|
we are able to look in the log messages and work out, for example, which code
|
|
|
|
|
is being slow and which device drivers are misbehaving.
|
|
|
|
|
If one of the strings listed in /sys/power/state is written to it, the system
|
|
|
|
|
will attempt to transition into the corresponding sleep state. Refer to
|
|
|
|
|
Documentation/power/states.txt for a description of each of those states.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reading from this file will display all supported modes and the currently
|
|
|
|
|
selected one in brackets, for example
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/power/disk controls the operating mode of hibernation (Suspend-to-Disk).
|
|
|
|
|
Specifically, it tells the kernel what to do after creating a hibernation image.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[shutdown] reboot test testproc
|
|
|
|
|
Reading from it returns a list of supported options encoded as:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Writing to this file will accept one of
|
|
|
|
|
'platform' (put the system into sleep using a platform-provided method)
|
|
|
|
|
'shutdown' (shut the system down)
|
|
|
|
|
'reboot' (reboot the system)
|
|
|
|
|
'suspend' (trigger a Suspend-to-RAM transition)
|
|
|
|
|
'test_resume' (resume-after-hibernation test mode)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'platform' (only if the platform supports it)
|
|
|
|
|
'shutdown'
|
|
|
|
|
'reboot'
|
|
|
|
|
'testproc'
|
|
|
|
|
'test'
|
|
|
|
|
The currently selected option is printed in square brackets.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/power/image_size controls the size of the image created by
|
|
|
|
|
the suspend-to-disk mechanism. It can be written a string
|
|
|
|
|
representing a non-negative integer that will be used as an upper
|
|
|
|
|
limit of the image size, in bytes. The suspend-to-disk mechanism will
|
|
|
|
|
do its best to ensure the image size will not exceed that number. However,
|
|
|
|
|
if this turns out to be impossible, it will try to suspend anyway using the
|
|
|
|
|
smallest image possible. In particular, if "0" is written to this file, the
|
|
|
|
|
suspend image will be as small as possible.
|
|
|
|
|
The 'platform' option is only available if the platform provides a special
|
|
|
|
|
mechanism to put the system to sleep after creating a hibernation image (ACPI
|
|
|
|
|
does that, for example). The 'suspend' option is available if Suspend-to-RAM
|
|
|
|
|
is supported. Refer to Documentation/power/basic_pm_debugging.txt for the
|
|
|
|
|
description of the 'test_resume' option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reading from this file will display the current image size limit, which
|
|
|
|
|
is set to 2/5 of available RAM by default.
|
|
|
|
|
To select an option, write the string representing it to /sys/power/disk.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/power/pm_trace controls the code which saves the last PM event point in
|
|
|
|
|
the RTC across reboots, so that you can debug a machine that just hangs
|
|
|
|
|
during suspend (or more commonly, during resume). Namely, the RTC is only
|
|
|
|
|
used to save the last PM event point if this file contains '1'. Initially it
|
|
|
|
|
contains '0' which may be changed to '1' by writing a string representing a
|
|
|
|
|
nonzero integer into it.
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/power/image_size controls the size of hibernation images.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use this debugging feature you should attempt to suspend the machine, then
|
|
|
|
|
reboot it and run
|
|
|
|
|
It can be written a string representing a non-negative integer that will be
|
|
|
|
|
used as a best-effort upper limit of the image size, in bytes. The hibernation
|
|
|
|
|
core will do its best to ensure that the image size will not exceed that number.
|
|
|
|
|
However, if that turns out to be impossible to achieve, a hibernation image will
|
|
|
|
|
still be created and its size will be as small as possible. In particular,
|
|
|
|
|
writing '0' to this file will enforce hibernation images to be as small as
|
|
|
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dmesg -s 1000000 | grep 'hash matches'
|
|
|
|
|
Reading from this file returns the current image size limit, which is set to
|
|
|
|
|
around 2/5 of available RAM by default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAUTION: Using it will cause your machine's real-time (CMOS) clock to be
|
|
|
|
|
set to a random invalid time after a resume.
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/power/pm_trace controls the PM trace mechanism saving the last suspend
|
|
|
|
|
or resume event point in the RTC across reboots.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It helps to debug hard lockups or reboots due to device driver failures that
|
|
|
|
|
occur during system suspend or resume (which is more common) more effectively.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If /sys/power/pm_trace contains '1', the fingerprint of each suspend/resume
|
|
|
|
|
event point in turn will be stored in the RTC memory (overwriting the actual
|
|
|
|
|
RTC information), so it will survive a system crash if one occurs right after
|
|
|
|
|
storing it and it can be used later to identify the driver that caused the crash
|
|
|
|
|
to happen (see Documentation/power/s2ram.txt for more information).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Initially it contains '0' which may be changed to '1' by writing a string
|
|
|
|
|
representing a nonzero integer into it.
