[libvirt] [PATCH] Add 'Hybrid-Suspend' power management discovery for the host

Srivatsa S. Bhat srivatsa.bhat at linux.vnet.ibm.com
Thu Nov 24 08:52:41 UTC 2011


Some systems support a feature known as 'Hybrid-Suspend', apart from the
usual system-wide sleep states such as Suspend-to-RAM (S3) or Suspend-to-Disk
(S4). Add the functionality to discover this power management feature and
export it in the capabilities XML under the <power_management> tag.

This addition was suggested in [1].
