I thought about something like that a few days ago and it was pretty much identical to what you're saying there. Except I didn't write it down ;) A few comments: I think the sources file isn't really useful, a grep -l 1 /sys/power/wakeup/* should do. About different possible states: I think each of those can have different possible wakeup sources, ACPI can afaik go to S4 and still be able to configure the wakeup sources. So I suppose this really needs to be something like /sys/power/wakeup/<state>/<event> then where <state> is one of (currently) "mem", "disk" and "standby". And then change the interface of pm_register_wakeup_source to include the state. Also, I'm not sure I like the interface with the name of the wakeup event set by the platform driver. That will probably lead to inconsistencies, a centrally maintained file with items could be nicer. About test mode: there is such a thing for suspend to disk. In fact, if you just want to test driver suspend you could use that. See the /sys/power/disk file. johannes
