2 bool "Power Management support"
3 depends on !IA64_HP_SIM
5 "Power Management" means that parts of your computer are shut
6 off or put into a power conserving "sleep" mode if they are not
7 being used. There are two competing standards for doing this: APM
8 and ACPI. If you want to use either one, say Y here and then also
9 to the requisite support below.
11 Power Management is most important for battery powered laptop
12 computers; if you have a laptop, check out the Linux Laptop home
13 page on the WWW at <http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/> or
14 Tuxmobil - Linux on Mobile Computers at <http://www.tuxmobil.org/>
15 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
16 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
18 Note that, even if you say N here, Linux on the x86 architecture
19 will issue the hlt instruction if nothing is to be done, thereby
20 sending the processor to sleep and saving power.
23 bool "Power Management Debug Support"
26 This option enables various debugging support in the Power Management
27 code. This is helpful when debugging and reporting PM bugs, like
30 config PM_ADVANCED_DEBUG
31 bool "Extra PM attributes in sysfs for low-level debugging/testing"
35 Add extra sysfs attributes allowing one to access some Power Management
36 fields of device objects from user space. If you are not a kernel
37 developer interested in debugging/testing Power Management, say "no".
40 bool "Verbose Power Management debugging"
44 This option enables verbose messages from the Power Management code.
48 depends on PM_DEBUG && PM_SLEEP && EXPERIMENTAL
53 This enables code to save the last PM event point across
54 reboot. The architecture needs to support this, x86 for
55 example does by saving things in the RTC, see below.
57 The architecture specific code must provide the extern
58 functions from <linux/resume-trace.h> as well as the
59 <asm/resume-trace.h> header with a TRACE_RESUME() macro.
61 The way the information is presented is architecture-
62 dependent, x86 will print the information during a
66 bool "Suspend/resume event tracing"
67 depends on CAN_PM_TRACE
72 This enables some cheesy code to save the last PM event point in the
73 RTC across reboots, so that you can debug a machine that just hangs
74 during suspend (or more commonly, during resume).
76 To use this debugging feature you should attempt to suspend the
77 machine, reboot it and then run
79 dmesg -s 1000000 | grep 'hash matches'
81 CAUTION: this option will cause your machine's real-time clock to be
82 set to an invalid time after a resume.
87 depends on ARCH_SUSPEND_POSSIBLE || ARCH_HIBERNATION_POSSIBLE
95 depends on SUSPEND || HIBERNATION || XEN_SAVE_RESTORE
98 config PM_SLEEP_ADVANCED_DEBUG
100 depends on PM_ADVANCED_DEBUG
104 bool "Suspend to RAM and standby"
105 depends on PM && ARCH_SUSPEND_POSSIBLE
108 Allow the system to enter sleep states in which main memory is
109 powered and thus its contents are preserved, such as the
110 suspend-to-RAM state (e.g. the ACPI S3 state).
112 config PM_TEST_SUSPEND
113 bool "Test suspend/resume and wakealarm during bootup"
114 depends on SUSPEND && PM_DEBUG && RTC_CLASS=y
116 This option will let you suspend your machine during bootup, and
117 make it wake up a few seconds later using an RTC wakeup alarm.
118 Enable this with a kernel parameter like "test_suspend=mem".
120 You probably want to have your system's RTC driver statically
121 linked, ensuring that it's available when this test runs.
123 config SUSPEND_FREEZER
124 bool "Enable freezer for suspend to RAM/standby" \
125 if ARCH_WANTS_FREEZER_CONTROL || BROKEN
129 This allows you to turn off the freezer for suspend. If this is
130 done, no tasks are frozen for suspend to RAM/standby.
132 Turning OFF this setting is NOT recommended! If in doubt, say Y.
135 bool "Hibernation (aka 'suspend to disk')"
136 depends on PM && SWAP && ARCH_HIBERNATION_POSSIBLE
138 select LZO_DECOMPRESS
140 Enable the suspend to disk (STD) functionality, which is usually
141 called "hibernation" in user interfaces. STD checkpoints the
142 system and powers it off; and restores that checkpoint on reboot.
144 You can suspend your machine with 'echo disk > /sys/power/state'
145 after placing resume=/dev/swappartition on the kernel command line
146 in your bootloader's configuration file.
148 Alternatively, you can use the additional userland tools available
149 from <http://suspend.sf.net>.
151 In principle it does not require ACPI or APM, although for example
152 ACPI will be used for the final steps when it is available. One
153 of the reasons to use software suspend is that the firmware hooks
154 for suspend states like suspend-to-RAM (STR) often don't work very
157 It creates an image which is saved in your active swap. Upon the next
158 boot, pass the 'resume=/dev/swappartition' argument to the kernel to
159 have it detect the saved image, restore memory state from it, and
160 continue to run as before. If you do not want the previous state to
161 be reloaded, then use the 'noresume' kernel command line argument.
162 Note, however, that fsck will be run on your filesystems and you will
163 need to run mkswap against the swap partition used for the suspend.
165 It also works with swap files to a limited extent (for details see
166 <file:Documentation/power/swsusp-and-swap-files.txt>).
168 Right now you may boot without resuming and resume later but in the
169 meantime you cannot use the swap partition(s)/file(s) involved in
170 suspending. Also in this case you must not use the filesystems
171 that were mounted before the suspend. In particular, you MUST NOT
172 MOUNT any journaled filesystems mounted before the suspend or they
173 will get corrupted in a nasty way.
175 For more information take a look at <file:Documentation/power/swsusp.txt>.
177 config PM_STD_PARTITION
178 string "Default resume partition"
179 depends on HIBERNATION
182 The default resume partition is the partition that the suspend-
183 to-disk implementation will look for a suspended disk image.
185 The partition specified here will be different for almost every user.
186 It should be a valid swap partition (at least for now) that is turned
187 on before suspending.
189 The partition specified can be overridden by specifying:
191 resume=/dev/<other device>
193 which will set the resume partition to the device specified.
195 Note there is currently not a way to specify which device to save the
196 suspended image to. It will simply pick the first available swap
200 tristate "Advanced Power Management Emulation"
201 depends on PM && SYS_SUPPORTS_APM_EMULATION
203 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
204 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
205 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
206 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
207 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
208 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
210 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
211 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
212 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
213 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
215 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
216 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
217 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
219 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
220 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
221 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
222 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
226 bool "Run-time PM core functionality"
229 Enable functionality allowing I/O devices to be put into energy-saving
230 (low power) states at run time (or autosuspended) after a specified
231 period of inactivity and woken up in response to a hardware-generated
232 wake-up event or a driver's request.
234 Hardware support is generally required for this functionality to work
235 and the bus type drivers of the buses the devices are on are
236 responsible for the actual handling of the autosuspend requests and

248 bool "Operating Performance Point (OPP) Layer library"
250 depends on ARCH_HAS_OPP
252 SOCs have a standard set of tuples consisting of frequency and
253 voltage pairs that the device will support per voltage domain. This
254 is called Operating Performance Point or OPP. The actual definitions
255 of OPP varies over silicon within the same family of devices.
257 OPP layer organizes the data internally using device pointers
258 representing individual voltage domains and provides SOC
259 implementations a ready to use framework to manage OPPs.
