Hibernation: New testing facility (rev. 2)
Make it possible to test the hibernation core code with the help of the
/sys/power/pm_test attribute introduced for suspend testing in the previous
patch.
Writing an appropriate string to this file causes the hibernation 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
(*) - the platform global control methods are only available on ACPI systems
and are only tested if the hibernation mode is set to "platform"
Then, if a hibernation is started by normal means, the hibernation 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.
