[PATCH v2 3/3] PM: hibernate: log the task that initiated the power down
From: Bradley Morgan
Date: Tue Jul 21 2026 - 11:15:30 EST
Give the hibernation power down the same treatment as the reboot
syscall commands. hibernate() runs in the context of the task that
asked for it, whether through the reboot syscall or a write to
/sys/power/disk, so when power_down() runs current is still the
initiating task.
Log it once the image has been written and the machine is committed
to going down:
reboot: initiated by systemd-sleep[812]
reboot: Power down
The line comes from kernel/reboot.c so it keeps the "reboot:" prefix
and sits right next to the final "Restarting system", "Power down"
or "System halted" line, same as a plain reboot.
The one exception is platform mode rolling back on a pending wakeup
event after the line has been printed. The existing "Wakeup event
detected during hibernation, rolling back." line follows immediately
in that case, so the log stays real about what happened.
