linux休眠（Linux休眠） Sleep / wake is a very important part of embedded Linux, and the embedded device can sleep as much as possible to extend the battery life. This article details how sleep / wakeup in Linux works, and how Android links this part to the mechanism of Linux In Linux, sleep is divided into three main steps: 1) freeze user state processes and kernel state tasks 2) call the callback function of the suspend of the registered device, in the order in which it is registered 3) sleep core devices and the CPU into hibernation, the freezing process is the kernel to set the process list of all the state of the process is set to stop, and save all the process context. When these processes are unfrozen, they do not know that they have been frozen, but simply continue to perform. How do you get Linux to sleep? Users can read and write sys files. /sys/power/state implements the control system into hibernation # echo standby /sys/power/state The command system goes into hibernation. It can also be used Cat/sys/power/state came to # kernel support what kinds of sleep mode. Linux Suspend process Related documents You can access the source code by accessing the Linux kernel site, and here is the path to the file: Linux_soruce/kernel/power/main.c Linux_source/kernel/arch/xxx/mach-xxx/pm.c Linux_source/driver/base/power/main.c Next, lets take a detailed look at how Linux sleep / wake up. Lets, going, to, see, how, these, happens. The user reads and writes the /sys/power/state to the state_store () in the main.c, and the user can write the string defined in the constchar * const pm_state[], such as MEM, standby Then state_store () calls enter_state (), which first checks some state parameters and then synchronizes the file system. Preparation, freezing process When it comes to suspend_prepare () in the future, it will be assigned to the suspend a virtual terminal to output information, and then broadcast a system to enter suspend Notify, shut down the user mode helper process
