    <title>Description</title>

    <para><filename>systemd-suspend.service</filename> is a system
    service that is pulled in by <filename>suspend.target</filename>
    and is responsible for the actual system suspend. Similarly,
    <filename>systemd-hibernate.service</filename> is pulled in by
    <filename>hibernate.target</filename> to execute the actual
    hibernation. Finally,
    <filename>systemd-hybrid-sleep.service</filename> is pulled in by
    <filename>hybrid-sleep.target</filename> to execute hybrid
    hibernation with system suspend and pulled in by
    <filename>suspend-then-hibernate.target</filename> to execute system suspend
    with a timeout that will activate hibernate later.</para>

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

    <para>Note that scripts or binaries dropped in
    <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/</filename> are intended
    for local use only and should be considered hacks. If applications
    want to react to system suspend/hibernation and resume,
    they should rather use the <ulink
    url="https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/inhibit">Inhibitor
    interface</ulink>.</para>

    <para>Note that
    <filename>systemd-suspend.service</filename>,
    <filename>systemd-hibernate.service</filename>, and
    <filename>systemd-hybrid-sleep.service</filename>
    <filename>systemd-suspend-then-hibernate.service</filename>
    should never be executed directly. Instead, trigger system sleep
    states with a command such as <literal>systemctl suspend</literal>
    or similar.</para>

    <para>Internally, this service will echo a string like
    <literal>mem</literal> into <filename>/sys/power/state</filename>,
    to trigger the actual system suspend. What exactly is written
    where can be configured in the <literal>[Sleep]</literal> section
    of <filename>/etc/systemd/sleep.conf</filename> or a
    <filename>sleep.conf.d</filename> file. See
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-sleep.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
