In Kernel 2.4.18-pa20 I've added a /proc/sys/kernel/power
procfs entry which lets you enable/disable the soft power switch
at runtime:
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/power # disables the power switch
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/power # enables the power switch
# cat /proc/sys/kernel/power
Software power switch support: enabled (1)
Or, you could of course also use sysctl program/interface.
Greetings,
Helge
