1config PM
2	bool "Power Management support"
3	depends on !IA64_HP_SIM
4	---help---
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.
10
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>.
17
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.
21
22config PM_LEGACY
23	bool "Legacy Power Management API"
24	depends on PM
25	default y
26	---help---
27	   Support for pm_register() and friends.
28
29	   If unsure, say Y.
30
31config PM_DEBUG
32	bool "Power Management Debug Support"
33	depends on PM
34	---help---
35	This option enables verbose debugging support in the Power Management
36	code. This is helpful when debugging and reporting various PM bugs,
37	like suspend support.
38
39config DISABLE_CONSOLE_SUSPEND
40	bool "Keep console(s) enabled during suspend/resume (DANGEROUS)"
41	depends on PM && PM_DEBUG
42	default n
43	---help---
44	This option turns off the console suspend mechanism that prevents
45	debug messages from reaching the console during the suspend/resume
46	operations.  This may be helpful when debugging device drivers'
47	suspend/resume routines, but may itself lead to problems, for example
48	if netconsole is used.
49
50config PM_TRACE
51	bool "Suspend/resume event tracing"
52	depends on PM && PM_DEBUG && X86_32 && EXPERIMENTAL
53	default n
54	---help---
55	This enables some cheesy code to save the last PM event point in the
56	RTC across reboots, so that you can debug a machine that just hangs
57	during suspend (or more commonly, during resume).
58
59	To use this debugging feature you should attempt to suspend the machine,
60	then reboot it, then run
61
62		dmesg -s 1000000 | grep 'hash matches'
63
64	CAUTION: this option will cause your machine's real-time clock to be
65	set to an invalid time after a resume.
66
67config PM_SYSFS_DEPRECATED
68	bool "Driver model /sys/devices/.../power/state files (DEPRECATED)"
69	depends on PM && SYSFS
70	default n
71	help
72	  The driver model started out with a sysfs file intended to provide
73	  a userspace hook for device power management.  This feature has never
74	  worked very well, except for limited testing purposes, and so it will
75	  be removed.   It's not clear that a generic mechanism could really
76	  handle the wide variability of device power states; any replacements
77	  are likely to be bus or driver specific.
78
79config SOFTWARE_SUSPEND
80	bool "Software Suspend"
81	depends on PM && SWAP && ((X86 && (!SMP || SUSPEND_SMP)) || ((FRV || PPC32) && !SMP))
82	---help---
83	  Enable the possibility of suspending the machine.
84	  It doesn't need ACPI or APM.
85	  You may suspend your machine by 'swsusp' or 'shutdown -z <time>'
86	  (patch for sysvinit needed).
87
88	  It creates an image which is saved in your active swap. Upon next
89	  boot, pass the 'resume=/dev/swappartition' argument to the kernel to
90	  have it detect the saved image, restore memory state from it, and
91	  continue to run as before. If you do not want the previous state to
92	  be reloaded, then use the 'noresume' kernel argument. However, note
93	  that your partitions will be fsck'd and you must re-mkswap your swap
94	  partitions. It does not work with swap files.
95
96	  Right now you may boot without resuming and then later resume but
97	  in meantime you cannot use those swap partitions/files which were
98	  involved in suspending. Also in this case there is a risk that buffers
99	  on disk won't match with saved ones.
100
101	  For more information take a look at <file:Documentation/power/swsusp.txt>.
102
103	  (For now, swsusp is incompatible with PAE aka HIGHMEM_64G on i386.
104	  we need identity mapping for resume to work, and that is trivial
105	  to get with 4MB pages, but less than trivial on PAE).
106
107config PM_STD_PARTITION
108	string "Default resume partition"
109	depends on SOFTWARE_SUSPEND
110	default ""
111	---help---
112	  The default resume partition is the partition that the suspend-
113	  to-disk implementation will look for a suspended disk image.
114
115	  The partition specified here will be different for almost every user.
116	  It should be a valid swap partition (at least for now) that is turned
117	  on before suspending.
118
119	  The partition specified can be overridden by specifying:
120
121		resume=/dev/<other device>
122
123	  which will set the resume partition to the device specified.
124
125	  Note there is currently not a way to specify which device to save the
126	  suspended image to. It will simply pick the first available swap
127	  device.
128
129config SUSPEND_SMP
130	bool
131	depends on HOTPLUG_CPU && X86 && PM
132	default y
