5		The /sys/devices/.../power directory contains attributes
6		allowing the user space to check and modify some power
7		management related properties of given device.

9What:		/sys/devices/.../power/wakeup
10Date:		January 2009
11Contact:	Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
12Description:
13		The /sys/devices/.../power/wakeup attribute allows the user
14		space to check if the device is enabled to wake up the system
15		from sleep states, such as the memory sleep state (suspend to
16		RAM) and hibernation (suspend to disk), and to enable or disable
17		it to do that as desired.
18
19		Some devices support "wakeup" events, which are hardware signals
20		used to activate the system from a sleep state.  Such devices
21		have one of the following two values for the sysfs power/wakeup
22		file:
23
24		+ "enabled\n" to issue the events;
25		+ "disabled\n" not to do so;
26
27		In that cases the user space can change the setting represented
28		by the contents of this file by writing either "enabled", or
29		"disabled" to it.
30
31		For the devices that are not capable of generating system wakeup
32		events this file is not present.  In that case the device cannot
33		be enabled to wake up the system from sleep states.
34
35What:		/sys/devices/.../power/control
36Date:		January 2009
37Contact:	Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
38Description:
39		The /sys/devices/.../power/control attribute allows the user
40		space to control the run-time power management of the device.
41
42		All devices have one of the following two values for the
43		power/control file:
44
45		+ "auto\n" to allow the device to be power managed at run time;
46		+ "on\n" to prevent the device from being power managed;
47
48		The default for all devices is "auto", which means that they may
49		be subject to automatic power management, depending on their
50		drivers.  Changing this attribute to "on" prevents the driver
51		from power managing the device at run time.  Doing that while
52		the device is suspended causes it to be woken up.
53
54What:		/sys/devices/.../power/async
55Date:		January 2009
56Contact:	Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
57Description:
58		The /sys/devices/.../async attribute allows the user space to
59		enable or diasble the device's suspend and resume callbacks to
60		be executed asynchronously (ie. in separate threads, in parallel
61		with the main suspend/resume thread) during system-wide power
62		transitions (eg. suspend to RAM, hibernation).
63
64		All devices have one of the following two values for the
65		power/async file:
66
67		+ "enabled\n" to permit the asynchronous suspend/resume;
68		+ "disabled\n" to forbid it;
69
70		The value of this attribute may be changed by writing either
71		"enabled", or "disabled" to it.
72
73		It generally is unsafe to permit the asynchronous suspend/resume
74		of a device unless it is certain that all of the PM dependencies
75		of the device are known to the PM core.  However, for some
76		devices this attribute is set to "enabled" by bus type code or
77		device drivers and in that cases it should be safe to leave the
78		default value.

82Contact:	Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
83Description:
84		The /sys/devices/.../wakeup_count attribute contains the number
85		of signaled wakeup events associated with the device.  This
86		attribute is read-only.  If the device is not enabled to wake up
87		the system from sleep states, this attribute is not present.

92Description:
93		The /sys/devices/.../wakeup_active_count attribute contains the
94		number of times the processing of wakeup events associated with
95		the device was completed (at the kernel level).  This attribute
96		is read-only.  If the device is not enabled to wake up the

102Description:
103		The /sys/devices/.../wakeup_abort_count attribute contains the
104		number of times the processing of a wakeup event associated with
105		the device might have aborted system transition into a sleep
106		state in progress.  This attribute is read-only.  If the device

120What:		/sys/devices/.../power/wakeup_active
121Date:		September 2010
122Contact:	Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
123Description:
124		The /sys/devices/.../wakeup_active attribute contains either 1,
125		or 0, depending on whether or not a wakeup event associated with
126		the device is being processed (1).  This attribute is read-only.
127		If the device is not enabled to wake up the system from sleep
128		states, this attribute is not present.

134		The /sys/devices/.../wakeup_total_time_ms attribute contains
135		the total time of processing wakeup events associated with the
136		device, in milliseconds.  This attribute is read-only.  If the
137		device is not enabled to wake up the system from sleep states,
138		this attribute is not present.

143Description:
144		The /sys/devices/.../wakeup_max_time_ms attribute contains
145		the maximum time of processing a single wakeup event associated
146		with the device, in milliseconds.  This attribute is read-only.
147		If the device is not enabled to wake up the system from sleep
148		states, this attribute is not present.

150What:		/sys/devices/.../power/wakeup_last_time_ms
151Date:		September 2010
152Contact:	Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
153Description:
154		The /sys/devices/.../wakeup_last_time_ms attribute contains
155		the value of the monotonic clock corresponding to the time of
156		signaling the last wakeup event associated with the device, in
157		milliseconds.  This attribute is read-only.  If the device is
158		not enabled to wake up the system from sleep states, this
159		attribute is not present.

161What:		/sys/devices/.../power/wakeup_prevent_sleep_time_ms
162Date:		February 2012
163Contact:	Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
164Description:
165		The /sys/devices/.../wakeup_prevent_sleep_time_ms attribute
166		contains the total time the device has been preventing
167		opportunistic transitions to sleep states from occuring.
168		This attribute is read-only.  If the device is not enabled to
169		wake up the system from sleep states, this attribute is not

172What:		/sys/devices/.../power/autosuspend_delay_ms
173Date:		September 2010
174Contact:	Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu>
175Description:
176		The /sys/devices/.../power/autosuspend_delay_ms attribute
177		contains the autosuspend delay value (in milliseconds).  Some
178		drivers do not want their device to suspend as soon as it
179		becomes idle at run time; they want the device to remain
180		inactive for a certain minimum period of time first.  That
181		period is called the autosuspend delay.  Negative values will
182		prevent the device from being suspended at run time (similar
183		to writing "on" to the power/control attribute).  Values >=
184		1000 will cause the autosuspend timer expiration to be rounded
185		up to the nearest second.
186
187		Not all drivers support this attribute.  If it isn't supported,
188		attempts to read or write it will yield I/O errors.
189
190What:		/sys/devices/.../power/pm_qos_latency_us
191Date:		March 2012
192Contact:	Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
193Description:
194		The /sys/devices/.../power/pm_qos_resume_latency_us attribute
195		contains the PM QoS resume latency limit for the given device,
196		which is the maximum allowed time it can take to resume the
197		device, after it has been suspended at run time, from a resume
198		request to the moment the device will be ready to process I/O,
199		in microseconds.  If it is equal to 0, however, this means that
200		the PM QoS resume latency may be arbitrary.
201
202		Not all drivers support this attribute.  If it isn't supported,
203		it is not present.
204
205		This attribute has no effect on system-wide suspend/resume and
206		hibernation.
