I think this should be documented in the Documentation/power directory.
After having taken another look at that directory, I see that there
is only detailed documentation and no overview documentation. Maybe I
overlooked something but I couldn't find an explanation of the system
suspend/resume nor of the runtime power management concepts in that
directory. My understanding is that system suspend/resume is about
system-wide power state changes (hibernation and suspend-to-RAM) and
also that runtime power management is about changing the power state of
a single device or bus if no activity has happened within a certain
time.

Bart.
