51 <title>Description</title>
52
53 <para><filename>systemd-suspend.service</filename> is a system
54 service that is pulled in by <filename>suspend.target</filename>
55 and is responsible for the actual system suspend. Similarly,
56 <filename>systemd-hibernate.service</filename> is pulled in by
57 <filename>hibernate.target</filename> to execute the actual
58 hibernation. Finally,
59 <filename>systemd-hybrid-sleep.service</filename> is pulled in by
60 <filename>hybrid-sleep.target</filename> to execute hybrid
c58493c0 61 hibernation with system suspend and pulled in by
e68c79db 62 <filename>suspend-then-hibernate.target</filename> to execute system suspend
c58493c0 63 with a timeout that will activate hibernate later.</para>
798d3a52
ZJS
64
65 <para>Immediately before entering system suspend and/or
66 hibernation <filename>systemd-suspend.service</filename> (and the
67 other mentioned units, respectively) will run all executables in
12b42c76 68 <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/</filename> and pass two
798d3a52
ZJS
69 arguments to them. The first argument will be
70 <literal>pre</literal>, the second either
c58493c0 71 <literal>suspend</literal>, <literal>hibernate</literal>,
e68c79db 72 <literal>hybrid-sleep</literal>, or <literal>suspend-then-hibernate</literal>
c58493c0 73 depending on the chosen action.
798d3a52
ZJS
74 Immediately after leaving system suspend and/or hibernation the
75 same executables are run, but the first argument is now
76 <literal>post</literal>. All executables in this directory are
77 executed in parallel, and execution of the action is not continued
78 until all executables have finished.</para>

80 <para>Note that scripts or binaries dropped in
12b42c76 81 <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/</filename> are intended
798d3a52 82 for local use only and should be considered hacks. If applications

83 want to react to system suspend/hibernation and resume,
84 they should rather use the <ulink

93 should never be executed directly. Instead, trigger system sleep
94 states with a command such as <literal>systemctl suspend</literal>
95 or similar.</para>
96
97 <para>Internally, this service will echo a string like
98 <literal>mem</literal> into <filename>/sys/power/state</filename>,
99 to trigger the actual system suspend. What exactly is written
100 where can be configured in the <literal>[Sleep]</literal> section
12b42c76 101 of <filename>/etc/systemd/sleep.conf</filename> or a
798d3a52

102 <filename>sleep.conf.d</filename> file. See
