Suspend: Testing facility (rev. 2)
Introduce sysfs attribute /sys/power/pm_test allowing one to test the suspend
core code. Namely, writing one of the strings:
freezer
devices
platform
processors
core
to this file causes the suspend code to work in one of the test modes defined as
follows:
freezer
- test the freezing of processes
devices
- test the freezing of processes and suspending of devices
platform
- test the freezing of processes, suspending of devices and platform global
control methods(*)
processors
- test the freezing of processes, suspending of devices, platform global
control methods and the disabling of nonboot CPUs
core
- test the freezing of processes, suspending of devices, platform global
control methods, the disabling of nonboot CPUs and suspending of
platform/system devices
(*) These are ACPI global control methods on ACPI systems
Then, if a suspend is started by normal means, the suspend core will perform
its normal operations up to the point indicated by given test level. Next, it
will wait for 5 seconds and carry out the resume operations needed to transition
the system back to the fully functional state.
Writing "none" to /sys/power/pm_test turns the testing off.
When open for reading, /sys/power/pm_test contains a space-separated list of all
available tests (including "none" that represents the normal functionality) in
which the current test level is indicated by square brackets.
