Description:
|
|
|
|
Each USB device directory will contain a file named
|
|
|
|
power/autosuspend. This file holds the time (in seconds)
|
|
|
|
the device must be idle before it will be autosuspended.
|
|
|
|
0 means the device will be autosuspended as soon as
|
|
|
|
possible. Negative values will prevent the device from
|
|
|
|
being autosuspended at all, and writing a negative value
|
|
|
|
will resume the device if it is already suspended.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The autosuspend delay for newly-created devices is set to
|
|
|
|
the value of the usbcore.autosuspend module parameter.

Each USB device directory will contain a file named
|
|
|
|
power/level. This file holds a power-level setting for
|
2009-12-08 20:49:48 +00:00
|
|
|
the device, either "on" or "auto".
|
2007-03-20 18:59:39 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"on" means that the device is not allowed to autosuspend,
|
|
|
|
although normal suspends for system sleep will still
|
|
|
|
be honored. "auto" means the device will autosuspend
|
|
|
|
and autoresume in the usual manner, according to the
|
2009-12-08 20:49:48 +00:00
|
|
|
capabilities of its driver.
|
2007-03-20 18:59:39 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
During normal use, devices should be left in the "auto"
|
2009-12-08 20:49:48 +00:00
|
|
|
level. The "on" level is meant for administrative uses.
|
2007-03-20 18:59:39 +00:00
|
|
|
If you want to suspend a device immediately but leave it
|
|
|
|
free to wake up in response to I/O requests, you should
|
|
|
|
write "0" to power/autosuspend.

|
|
|
Device not capable of proper suspend and resume should be
|
|
|
|
left in the "on" level. Although the USB spec requires
|
|
|
|
devices to support suspend/resume, many of them do not.
|
|
|
|
In fact so many don't that by default, the USB core
|
|
|
|
initializes all non-hub devices in the "on" level. Some
|
|
|
|
drivers may change this setting when they are bound.

boolean value (0 or 1) indicating whether or not the

Tools can use this file and the connected_duration file to

compute the percentage of time that a device has been active.

|
For example,
|

|

echo $((100 * `cat active_duration` / `cat connected_duration`))
|
|
|
|
will give an integer percentage. Note that this does not

returns 1 if no driver has claimed this interface, as an

unclaimed interface will not stop the device from being

The file returns 0 if autosuspend support has not been

Writing a device ID to this file will remove an ID
|
|
|
|
that was dynamically added via the new_id sysfs entry.
|
|
|
|
The format for the device ID is:
|
|
|
|
idVendor idProduct. After successfully
|
|
|
|
removing an ID, the driver will no longer support the
|
|
|
|
device. This is useful to ensure auto probing won't
|
|
|
|
match the driver to the device. For example:
|
|
|
|
# echo "046d c315" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/foo/remove_id
