Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Laptop mode is used to minimize the time that the hard disk needs to be spun up,
|
|
to conserve battery power on laptops. It has been reported to cause significant
|
|
power savings.

Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
To use laptop mode, you don't need to set any kernel configuration options
|
|
or anything. Simply install all the files included in this document, and
|
|
laptop mode will automatically be started when you're on battery. For
|
|
your convenience, a tarball containing an installer can be downloaded at:
|
|
|
|
http://www.samwel.tk/laptop_mode/laptop_mode/
|
|
|
|
To configure laptop mode, you need to edit the configuration file, which is
|
|
located in /etc/default/laptop-mode on Debian-based systems, or in
|
|
/etc/sysconfig/laptop-mode on other systems.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, automatic enabling of laptop mode does not work for
|
|
laptops that don't have ACPI. On those laptops, you need to start laptop
|
|
mode manually. To start laptop mode, run "laptop_mode start", and to
|
|
stop it, run "laptop_mode stop". (Note: The laptop mode tools package now
|
|
has experimental support for APM, you might want to try that first.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Caveats
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
* The downside of laptop mode is that you have a chance of losing up to 10
|
|
minutes of work. If you cannot afford this, don't use it! The supplied ACPI
|
|
scripts automatically turn off laptop mode when the battery almost runs out,
|
|
so that you won't lose any data at the end of your battery life.
|
|
|
|
* Most desktop hard drives have a very limited lifetime measured in spindown
|
|
cycles, typically about 50.000 times (it's usually listed on the spec sheet).
|
|
Check your drive's rating, and don't wear down your drive's lifetime if you
|
|
don't need to.
|
|
|
|
* If you mount some of your ext3/reiserfs filesystems with the -n option, then
|
|
the control script will not be able to remount them correctly. You must set
|
|
DO_REMOUNTS=0 in the control script, otherwise it will remount them with the
|
|
wrong options -- or it will fail because it cannot write to /etc/mtab.
|
|
|
|
* If you have your filesystems listed as type "auto" in fstab, like I did, then
|
|
the control script will not recognize them as filesystems that need remounting.
|
|
You must list the filesystems with their true type instead.
|
|
|
|
* It has been reported that some versions of the mutt mail client use file access
|
|
times to determine whether a folder contains new mail. If you use mutt and
|
|
experience this, you must disable the noatime remounting by setting the option
|
|
DO_REMOUNT_NOATIME to 0 in the configuration file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Details
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Laptop mode is controlled by the knob /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode. This knob is
|
|
present for all kernels that have the laptop mode patch, regardless of any
|
|
configuration options. When the knob is set, any physical disk I/O (that might
|
|
have caused the hard disk to spin up) causes Linux to flush all dirty blocks. The
|
|
result of this is that after a disk has spun down, it will not be spun up
|
|
anymore to write dirty blocks, because those blocks had already been written
|
|
immediately after the most recent read operation. The value of the laptop_mode
|
|
knob determines the time between the occurrence of disk I/O and when the flush
|
|
is triggered. A sensible value for the knob is 5 seconds. Setting the knob to
|
|
0 disables laptop mode.
|
|
|
|
To increase the effectiveness of the laptop_mode strategy, the laptop_mode
|
|
control script increases dirty_expire_centisecs and dirty_writeback_centisecs in
|
|
/proc/sys/vm to about 10 minutes (by default), which means that pages that are
|
|
dirtied are not forced to be written to disk as often. The control script also
|
|
changes the dirty background ratio, so that background writeback of dirty pages
|
|
is not done anymore. Combined with a higher commit value (also 10 minutes) for
|
|
ext3 or ReiserFS filesystems (also done automatically by the control script),
|
|
this results in concentration of disk activity in a small time interval which
|
|
occurs only once every 10 minutes, or whenever the disk is forced to spin up by
|
|
a cache miss. The disk can then be spun down in the periods of inactivity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The laptop mode configuration file is located in /etc/default/laptop-mode on
|
|
Debian-based systems, or in /etc/sysconfig/laptop-mode on other systems. It
|
|
contains the following options:
|
|
|
|
MAX_AGE:
|
|
|
|
Maximum time, in seconds, of hard drive spindown time that you are
|
|
comfortable with. Worst case, it's possible that you could lose this
|
|
amount of work if your battery fails while you're in laptop mode.
|
|
|
|
MINIMUM_BATTERY_MINUTES:
|
|
|
|
Automatically disable laptop mode if the remaining number of minutes of
|
|
battery power is less than this value. Default is 10 minutes.
|
|
|
|
AC_HD/BATT_HD:
|
|
|
|
The idle timeout that should be set on your hard drive when laptop mode
|
|
is active (BATT_HD) and when it is not active (AC_HD). The defaults are
|
|
20 seconds (value 4) for BATT_HD and 2 hours (value 244) for AC_HD. The
|
|
possible values are those listed in the manual page for "hdparm" for the
|
|
"-S" option.
|
|
|
|
HD:
|
|
|
|
The devices for which the spindown timeout should be adjusted by laptop mode.
|
|
Default is /dev/hda. If you specify multiple devices, separate them by a space.
|
|
|
|
READAHEAD:
|
|
|
|
Disk readahead, in 512-byte sectors, while laptop mode is active. A large
|
|
readahead can prevent disk accesses for things like executable pages (which are
|
|
loaded on demand while the application executes) and sequentially accessed data
|
|
(MP3s).
|
|
|
|
DO_REMOUNTS:
|
|
|
|
The control script automatically remounts any mounted journaled filesystems
|
|
with appropriate commit interval options. When this option is set to 0, this
|
|
feature is disabled.
|
|
|
|
DO_REMOUNT_NOATIME:
|
|
|
|
When remounting, should the filesystems be remounted with the noatime option?
|
|
Normally, this is set to "1" (enabled), but there may be programs that require
|
|
access time recording.
|
|
|
|
DIRTY_RATIO:
|
|
|
|
The percentage of memory that is allowed to contain "dirty" or unsaved data
|
|
before a writeback is forced, while laptop mode is active. Corresponds to
|
|
the /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio sysctl.
|
|
|
|
DIRTY_BACKGROUND_RATIO:
|
|
|
|
The percentage of memory that is allowed to contain "dirty" or unsaved data
|
|
after a forced writeback is done due to an exceeding of DIRTY_RATIO. Set
|
|
this nice and low. This corresponds to the /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio
|
|
sysctl.
|
|
|
|
Note that the behaviour of dirty_background_ratio is quite different
|
|
when laptop mode is active and when it isn't. When laptop mode is inactive,
|
|
dirty_background_ratio is the threshold percentage at which background writeouts
|
|
start taking place. When laptop mode is active, however, background writeouts
|
|
are disabled, and the dirty_background_ratio only determines how much writeback
|
|
is done when dirty_ratio is reached.
|
|
|
|
DO_CPU:
|
|
|
|
Enable CPU frequency scaling when in laptop mode. (Requires CPUFreq to be setup.
|
|
See Documentation/admin-guide/pm/cpufreq.rst for more info. Disabled by default.)
|
|
|
|
CPU_MAXFREQ:
|
|
|
|
When on battery, what is the maximum CPU speed that the system should use? Legal
|
|
values are "slowest" for the slowest speed that your CPU is able to operate at,
|
|
or a value listed in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tips & Tricks
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
* Bartek Kania reports getting up to 50 minutes of extra battery life (on top
|
|
of his regular 3 to 3.5 hours) using a spindown time of 5 seconds (BATT_HD=1).
|
|
|
|
* You can spin down the disk while playing MP3, by setting disk readahead
|
|
to 8MB (READAHEAD=16384). Effectively, the disk will read a complete MP3 at
|
|
once, and will then spin down while the MP3 is playing. (Thanks to Bartek
|
|
Kania.)
|
|
|
|
* Drew Scott Daniels observed: "I don't know why, but when I decrease the number
|
|
of colours that my display uses it consumes less battery power. I've seen
|
|
this on powerbooks too. I hope that this is a piece of information that
|
|
might be useful to the Laptop Mode patch or its users."
|
|
|
|
* In syslog.conf, you can prefix entries with a dash `-` to omit syncing the
|
|
file after every logging. When you're using laptop-mode and your disk doesn't
|
|
spin down, this is a likely culprit.
|
|
|
|
* Richard Atterer observed that laptop mode does not work well with noflushd
|
|
(http://noflushd.sourceforge.net/), it seems that noflushd prevents laptop-mode
|
|
from doing its thing.
|
|
|
|
* If you're worried about your data, you might want to consider using a USB
|
|
memory stick or something like that as a "working area". (Be aware though
|
|
that flash memory can only handle a limited number of writes, and overuse
|
|
may wear out your memory stick pretty quickly. Do _not_ use journalling
|
|
filesystems on flash memory sticks.)

Configuration file for control and ACPI battery scripts
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This allows the tunables to be changed for the scripts via an external
|
|
configuration file
|
|
|
|
It should be installed as /etc/default/laptop-mode on Debian, and as
|
|
/etc/sysconfig/laptop-mode on Red Hat, SUSE, Mandrake, and other work-alikes.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Please note that this control script works for the Linux 2.4 and 2.6 series (thanks
|
|
to Kiko Piris).
|
|
|
|
Control script::
|
|
|
|
#!/bin/bash
|
|
|
|
# start or stop laptop_mode, best run by a power management daemon when
|
|
# ac gets connected/disconnected from a laptop
|
|
#
|
|
# install as /sbin/laptop_mode
