 /sys/power/disk controls the operating mode of the suspend-to-disk
-mechanism. Suspend-to-disk can be handled in several ways. The
-greatest distinction is who writes memory to disk - the firmware or
-the kernel. If the firmware does it, we assume that it also handles
-suspending the system. 
-
-If the kernel does it, then we have three options for putting the system
-to sleep - using the platform driver (e.g. ACPI or other PM
-registers), powering off the system or rebooting the system (for
-testing). The system will support either 'firmware' or 'platform', and
-that is known a priori. But, the user may choose 'shutdown' or
-'reboot' as alternatives.

+few options for putting the system to sleep - using the platform driver
+(e.g. ACPI or other suspend_ops), powering off the system or rebooting the
+system (for testing).
+
+Additionally, /sys/power/disk can be used to turn on one of the two testing
+modes of the suspend-to-disk mechanism: 'testproc' or 'test'.  If the
+suspend-to-disk mechanism is in the 'testproc' mode, writing 'disk' to
+/sys/power/state will cause the kernel to disable nonboot CPUs and freeze
+tasks, wait for 5 seconds, unfreeze tasks and enable nonboot CPUs.  If it is
+in the 'test' mode, writing 'disk' to /sys/power/state will cause the kernel
+to disable nonboot CPUs and freeze tasks, shrink memory, suspend devices, wait
+for 5 seconds, resume devices, unfreeze tasks and enable nonboot CPUs.  Then,
+we are able to look in the log messages and work out, for example, which code
+is being slow and which device drivers are misbehaving.
