17.Nd power management interface
18.Sh SYNOPSIS
19.Cd "acpi0 at mainbus?"
20.Sh DESCRIPTION
21The
22.Nm
23driver provides a user interface to the
24.Xr acpi 4
25driver.
26.Pp
27The
28.Nm
29driver implements the following
30.Xr ioctl 2
31calls.
32They are defined in
33.In machine/apmvar.h .
34.Bl -tag -width Ds
35.It Dv APM_IOC_REJECT
36.Em Not implemented . DO NOT USE .
37.It Dv APM_IOC_STANDBY
38.Pq Li "no parameters"
39Request
40.Dq standby
41mode.
42.It Dv APM_IOC_SUSPEND
43.Pq Li "no parameters"
44Request
45.Dq suspend
46mode.
47.It Dv APM_IOC_HIBERNATE
48.Pq Li "no parameters"
49Request
50.Dq hibernate
51mode.
52.It Dv APM_IOC_GETPOWER
53.Pq Li "struct apm_power_info"
54Request the current power state.
55The argument structure is as follows:
56.Bd -literal -offset indent
57struct apm_power_info {
58	u_char battery_state;
59	u_char ac_state;
60	u_char battery_life;
61	u_char spare1;
62	u_int minutes_left;
63	u_int spare2[6];
64};
65.Ed
66.Pp
67The following values are defined for
68.Va battery_state :
69.Bl -tag -width Ds
70.It Dv APM_BATT_HIGH
71Battery has a high state of charge.
72.It Dv APM_BATT_LOW
73Battery has a low state of charge.
74.It Dv APM_BATT_CRITICAL
75Battery has a critical state of charge.
76.It Dv APM_BATT_CHARGING
77Battery is not high, low, or critical and is currently charging.
78.It Dv APM_BATT_UNKNOWN
79Cannot read the current battery state.
80.It Dv APM_BATTERY_ABSENT
81No battery installed.

85.Va ac_state :
86.Bl -tag -width Ds
87.It Dv APM_AC_OFF
88External power not detected.
89.It Dv APM_AC_ON
90External power detected.
91.It Dv APM_AC_BACKUP
92Backup power in use.
93.It Dv APM_AC_UNKNOWN
94External power state unknown.
95.El
96.Pp
97The
98.Va battery_life
99value contains the estimated percentage of battery life available.
100100% indicates a full charge.
101.Pp
102The
103.Va minutes_left
104value contains the estimated number of minutes of battery life
105remaining.
106.It Dv APM_IOC_DEV_CTL
107.Pq Li "struct apm_ctl"
108Allows an application to directly set the
109APM operating mode.
110The argument structure is as follows:
111.Bd -literal -offset indent
112struct apm_ctl {
113	u_int dev;
114	u_int mode;
115};
116.Ed

122.Va mode
123indicates the desired operating mode.
124Possible values are
125.Bl -tag -width Ds -compact -offset indent
126.It Dv APM_SYS_READY
127.It Dv APM_SYS_STANDBY
128.It Dv APM_SYS_SUSPEND
129.It Dv APM_SYS_OFF
130.It Dv APM_LASTREQ_INPROG
131.It Dv APM_LASTREQ_REJECTED

133.It Dv APM_IOC_PRN_CTL
134.Pq Li "int"
135This
136.Xr ioctl 2
137controls message output by the APM
138driver when a power change event is detected.
139The integer parameter is one of:
140.Bl -tag -width Ds
141.It Dv APM_PRINT_ON
142All power change events result in a message.
143This is the normal operating mode for the driver.
144.It Dv APM_PRINT_OFF
145Power change event messages are suppressed.
146.It Dv APM_PRINT_PCT
147Power change event messages are suppressed unless the estimated
148battery life percentage changes.
149.El
150.El
151.Sh FILES
152.Bl -tag -width "/dev/apmctlXXX"
153.It /dev/apm
