NAME

       systemd-suspend.service, systemd-hibernate.service, systemd-hybrid-sleep.service, systemd-sleep - System
       sleep state logic

SYNOPSIS

       systemd-suspend.service

       systemd-hibernate.service

       systemd-hybrid-sleep.service

       /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sleep

DESCRIPTION

       systemd-suspend.service is a system service that is pulled in by suspend.target and is responsible for
       the actual system suspend. Similarly, systemd-hibernate.service is pulled in by hibernate.target to
       execute the actual hibernation. Finally, systemd-hybrid-sleep.service is pulled in by hybrid-sleep.target
       to execute hybrid hibernation with system suspend.

       Immediately before entering system suspend and/or hibernation systemd-suspend.service (and the other
       mentioned units, respectively) will run all executables in /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/ and pass two
       arguments to them. The first argument will be "pre", the second either "suspend", "hibernate", or
       "hybrid-sleep" depending on the chosen action. Immediately after leaving system suspend and/or
       hibernation the same executables are run, but the first argument is now "post". All executables in this
       directory are executed in parallel, and execution of the action is not continued until all executables
       have finished.

       Note that scripts or binaries dropped in /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/ are intended for local use only
       and should be considered hacks. If applications want to be notified of system suspend/hibernation and
       resume there are much nicer interfaces available.

       Note that systemd-suspend.service, systemd-hibernate.service, and systemd-hybrid-sleep.service should
       never be executed directly. Instead, trigger system sleep states with a command such as "systemctl
       suspend" or similar.

       Internally, this service will echo a string like "mem" into /sys/power/state, to trigger the actual
       system suspend. What exactly is written where can be configured in the [Sleep] section of
       /etc/systemd/sleep.conf. See systemd-sleep.conf(5).
