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