Introduction
------------
Laptop mode is used to minimize the time that the hard disk needs to be spun up,
to conserve battery power on laptops. It has been reported to cause significant
power savings.

Installation
------------
To use laptop mode, you don't need to set any kernel configuration options
or anything. Simply install all the files included in this document, and
laptop mode will automatically be started when you're on battery. For
your convenience, a tarball containing an installer can be downloaded at:
http://www.samwel.tk/laptop_mode/laptop_mode/
To configure laptop mode, you need to edit the configuration file, which is
located in /etc/default/laptop-mode on Debian-based systems, or in
/etc/sysconfig/laptop-mode on other systems.
Unfortunately, automatic enabling of laptop mode does not work for
laptops that don't have ACPI. On those laptops, you need to start laptop
mode manually. To start laptop mode, run "laptop_mode start", and to
stop it, run "laptop_mode stop". (Note: The laptop mode tools package now
has experimental support for APM, you might want to try that first.)
Caveats
-------
* The downside of laptop mode is that you have a chance of losing up to 10
minutes of work. If you cannot afford this, don't use it! The supplied ACPI
scripts automatically turn off laptop mode when the battery almost runs out,
so that you won't lose any data at the end of your battery life.
* Most desktop hard drives have a very limited lifetime measured in spindown
cycles, typically about 50.000 times (it's usually listed on the spec sheet).
Check your drive's rating, and don't wear down your drive's lifetime if you
don't need to.
* If you mount some of your ext3 filesystems with the -n option, then
the control script will not be able to remount them correctly. You must set
DO_REMOUNTS=0 in the control script, otherwise it will remount them with the
wrong options -- or it will fail because it cannot write to /etc/mtab.
* If you have your filesystems listed as type "auto" in fstab, like I did, then
the control script will not recognize them as filesystems that need remounting.
You must list the filesystems with their true type instead.
* It has been reported that some versions of the mutt mail client use file access
times to determine whether a folder contains new mail. If you use mutt and
experience this, you must disable the noatime remounting by setting the option
DO_REMOUNT_NOATIME to 0 in the configuration file.
The Details
-----------
Laptop mode is controlled by the knob /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode. This knob is
present for all kernels that have the laptop mode patch, regardless of any
configuration options. When the knob is set, any physical disk I/O (that might
have caused the hard disk to spin up) causes Linux to flush all dirty blocks. The
result of this is that after a disk has spun down, it will not be spun up
anymore to write dirty blocks, because those blocks had already been written
immediately after the most recent read operation. The value of the laptop_mode
knob determines the time between the occurrence of disk I/O and when the flush
is triggered. A sensible value for the knob is 5 seconds. Setting the knob to
0 disables laptop mode.
To increase the effectiveness of the laptop_mode strategy, the laptop_mode
control script increases dirty_expire_centisecs and dirty_writeback_centisecs in
/proc/sys/vm to about 10 minutes (by default), which means that pages that are
dirtied are not forced to be written to disk as often. The control script also
changes the dirty background ratio, so that background writeback of dirty pages
is not done anymore. Combined with a higher commit value (also 10 minutes) for
ext3 filesystem (also done automatically by the control script),
this results in concentration of disk activity in a small time interval which
occurs only once every 10 minutes, or whenever the disk is forced to spin up by
a cache miss. The disk can then be spun down in the periods of inactivity.
Configuration
-------------
The laptop mode configuration file is located in /etc/default/laptop-mode on
Debian-based systems, or in /etc/sysconfig/laptop-mode on other systems. It
contains the following options:
MAX_AGE:
Maximum time, in seconds, of hard drive spindown time that you are
comfortable with. Worst case, it's possible that you could lose this
amount of work if your battery fails while you're in laptop mode.
MINIMUM_BATTERY_MINUTES:
Automatically disable laptop mode if the remaining number of minutes of
battery power is less than this value. Default is 10 minutes.
AC_HD/BATT_HD:
The idle timeout that should be set on your hard drive when laptop mode
is active (BATT_HD) and when it is not active (AC_HD). The defaults are
20 seconds (value 4) for BATT_HD and 2 hours (value 244) for AC_HD. The
possible values are those listed in the manual page for "hdparm" for the
"-S" option.
HD:
The devices for which the spindown timeout should be adjusted by laptop mode.
Default is /dev/hda. If you specify multiple devices, separate them by a space.
READAHEAD:
Disk readahead, in 512-byte sectors, while laptop mode is active. A large
readahead can prevent disk accesses for things like executable pages (which are
loaded on demand while the application executes) and sequentially accessed data
(MP3s).
DO_REMOUNTS:
The control script automatically remounts any mounted journaled filesystems
with appropriate commit interval options. When this option is set to 0, this
feature is disabled.
DO_REMOUNT_NOATIME:
When remounting, should the filesystems be remounted with the noatime option?
Normally, this is set to "1" (enabled), but there may be programs that require
access time recording.
DIRTY_RATIO:
The percentage of memory that is allowed to contain "dirty" or unsaved data
before a writeback is forced, while laptop mode is active. Corresponds to
the /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio sysctl.
DIRTY_BACKGROUND_RATIO:
The percentage of memory that is allowed to contain "dirty" or unsaved data
after a forced writeback is done due to an exceeding of DIRTY_RATIO. Set
this nice and low. This corresponds to the /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio
sysctl.
Note that the behaviour of dirty_background_ratio is quite different
when laptop mode is active and when it isn't. When laptop mode is inactive,
dirty_background_ratio is the threshold percentage at which background writeouts
start taking place. When laptop mode is active, however, background writeouts
are disabled, and the dirty_background_ratio only determines how much writeback
is done when dirty_ratio is reached.
DO_CPU:
Enable CPU frequency scaling when in laptop mode. (Requires CPUFreq to be setup.
See Documentation/admin-guide/pm/cpufreq.rst for more info. Disabled by default.)
CPU_MAXFREQ:
When on battery, what is the maximum CPU speed that the system should use? Legal
values are "slowest" for the slowest speed that your CPU is able to operate at,
or a value listed in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies.
Tips & Tricks
-------------
* Bartek Kania reports getting up to 50 minutes of extra battery life (on top
of his regular 3 to 3.5 hours) using a spindown time of 5 seconds (BATT_HD=1).
* You can spin down the disk while playing MP3, by setting disk readahead
to 8MB (READAHEAD=16384). Effectively, the disk will read a complete MP3 at
once, and will then spin down while the MP3 is playing. (Thanks to Bartek
Kania.)
* Drew Scott Daniels observed: "I don't know why, but when I decrease the number
of colours that my display uses it consumes less battery power. I've seen
this on powerbooks too. I hope that this is a piece of information that
might be useful to the Laptop Mode patch or its users."
* In syslog.conf, you can prefix entries with a dash `-` to omit syncing the
file after every logging. When you're using laptop-mode and your disk doesn't
spin down, this is a likely culprit.
* Richard Atterer observed that laptop mode does not work well with noflushd
(http://noflushd.sourceforge.net/), it seems that noflushd prevents laptop-mode
from doing its thing.
* If you're worried about your data, you might want to consider using a USB
memory stick or something like that as a "working area". (Be aware though
that flash memory can only handle a limited number of writes, and overuse
may wear out your memory stick pretty quickly. Do _not_ use journalling
filesystems on flash memory sticks.)
Configuration file for control and ACPI battery scripts
-------------------------------------------------------
This allows the tunables to be changed for the scripts via an external
configuration file
It should be installed as /etc/default/laptop-mode on Debian, and as
/etc/sysconfig/laptop-mode on Red Hat, SUSE, Mandrake, and other work-alikes.
Config file::
# Maximum time, in seconds, of hard drive spindown time that you are
# comfortable with. Worst case, it's possible that you could lose this
# amount of work if your battery fails you while in laptop mode.
#MAX_AGE=600
# Automatically disable laptop mode when the number of minutes of battery
# that you have left goes below this threshold.
MINIMUM_BATTERY_MINUTES=10
# Read-ahead, in 512-byte sectors. You can spin down the disk while playing MP3/OGG
# by setting the disk readahead to 8MB (READAHEAD=16384). Effectively, the disk
# will read a complete MP3 at once, and will then spin down while the MP3/OGG is
# playing.
#READAHEAD=4096
# Shall we remount journaled fs. with appropriate commit interval? (1=yes)
#DO_REMOUNTS=1
# And shall we add the "noatime" option to that as well? (1=yes)
#DO_REMOUNT_NOATIME=1
# Dirty synchronous ratio. At this percentage of dirty pages the process
# which
# calls write() does its own writeback
#DIRTY_RATIO=40
#
# Allowed dirty background ratio, in percent. Once DIRTY_RATIO has been
# exceeded, the kernel will wake flusher threads which will then reduce the
# amount of dirty memory to dirty_background_ratio. Set this nice and low,
# so once some writeout has commenced, we do a lot of it.
#
#DIRTY_BACKGROUND_RATIO=5
# kernel default dirty buffer age

#DEF_DIRTY_RATIO=40
#DEF_XFS_AGE_BUFFER=15
#DEF_XFS_SYNC_INTERVAL=30
#DEF_XFS_BUFD_INTERVAL=1
# This must be adjusted manually to the value of HZ in the running kernel
# on 2.4, until the XFS people change their 2.4 external interfaces to work in
# centisecs. This can be automated, but it's a work in progress that still
# needs# some fixes. On 2.6 kernels, XFS uses USER_HZ instead of HZ for
# external interfaces, and that is currently always set to 100. So you don't
# need to change this on 2.6.
#XFS_HZ=100
# Should the maximum CPU frequency be adjusted down while on battery?
# Requires CPUFreq to be setup.
# See Documentation/admin-guide/pm/cpufreq.rst for more info
#DO_CPU=0
# When on battery what is the maximum CPU speed that the system should
# use? Legal values are "slowest" for the slowest speed that your
# CPU is able to operate at, or a value listed in:
# /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies
# Only applicable if DO_CPU=1.
#CPU_MAXFREQ=slowest
# Idle timeout for your hard drive (man hdparm for valid values, -S option)
# Default is 2 hours on AC (AC_HD=244) and 20 seconds for battery (BATT_HD=4).
#AC_HD=244
#BATT_HD=4
# The drives for which to adjust the idle timeout. Separate them by a space,
# e.g. HD="/dev/hda /dev/hdb".
#HD="/dev/hda"
# Set the spindown timeout on a hard drive?
#DO_HD=1

to Kiko Piris).
Control script::
#!/bin/bash
# start or stop laptop_mode, best run by a power management daemon when
# ac gets connected/disconnected from a laptop
#
# install as /sbin/laptop_mode

ACPI integration

Dax Kelson submitted this so that the ACPI acpid daemon will
kick off the laptop_mode script and run hdparm. The part that
automatically disables laptop mode when the battery is low was
written by Jan Topinski.

laptop mode 소개
1-29문서 작성자: Bart Samwel ([email protected])
작성일: 2004년 1월 2일, 마지막 수정: 2004년 12월 6일
laptop mode는 laptop의 battery 전력을 절약하기 위해 hard disk가 spin-up 상태로 있어야 하는 시간을 최소화합니다. 상당한 절전 효과가 있다는 보고가 있습니다.
문서는 소개, 설치, 주의 사항, 세부 동작, 팁과 요령, control script, ACPI 통합, monitoring tool 순서로 구성됩니다.
설치와 수동 시작
30-50laptop mode를 사용하기 위해 별도의 kernel configuration option을 설정할 필요는 없습니다. 이 문서에 포함된 파일을 모두 설치하면 battery로 동작할 때 laptop mode가 자동으로 시작됩니다.
installer가 들어 있는 tarball은 다음 위치에서 받을 수 있습니다.
설정 파일은 Debian 계열에서는 `/etc/default/laptop-mode`, 그 밖의 시스템에서는 `/etc/sysconfig/laptop-mode`에 있습니다.
ACPI가 없는 laptop에서는 자동 enable이 동작하지 않습니다. 이 경우 `laptop_mode start`로 수동 시작하고 `laptop_mode stop`으로 중지합니다. laptop mode tools package에는 experimental APM 지원도 있으므로 먼저 시험할 수 있습니다.
데이터·drive·filesystem 주의 사항
51-78laptop mode의 단점은 최대 10분 분량의 작업을 잃을 가능성이 있다는 것입니다. 이를 감당할 수 없다면 사용하지 마십시오. 함께 제공되는 ACPI script는 battery가 거의 소진되면 laptop mode를 자동으로 꺼서 battery 수명 끝에 데이터가 손실되지 않게 합니다.
대부분의 desktop hard drive는 spindown cycle로 측정하는 수명이 매우 제한적이며 보통 약 50,000회입니다. specification sheet에서 drive 등급을 확인하고, 필요하지 않다면 불필요한 cycle로 수명을 줄이지 마십시오.
일부 ext3 filesystem을 `-n` option으로 mount했다면 control script가 올바르게 remount할 수 없습니다. `DO_REMOUNTS=0`으로 설정해야 합니다. 그렇지 않으면 잘못된 option으로 remount하거나 `/etc/mtab`에 쓸 수 없어 실패합니다.
`fstab`에 filesystem type을 `auto`로 기록하면 control script가 remount 대상 filesystem으로 인식하지 못합니다. 실제 filesystem type을 적어야 합니다.
일부 `mutt` mail client 버전은 folder에 새 mail이 있는지 판단할 때 file access time을 사용한다고 보고되었습니다. 이 문제가 있다면 configuration file에서 `DO_REMOUNT_NOATIME=0`으로 설정하여 `noatime` remount를 disable해야 합니다.
dirty page writeback 집중 원리
79-104laptop mode는 `/proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode` knob으로 제어합니다. 이 knob은 configuration option과 무관하게 laptop mode patch가 적용된 모든 kernel에 있습니다.
knob을 설정하면 hard disk를 spin-up시킬 수 있는 physical disk I/O가 발생할 때 Linux가 모든 dirty block을 flush합니다. 따라서 disk가 spin-down된 뒤에는 dirty block을 쓰려고 다시 spin-up할 필요가 없습니다. 그 block은 가장 최근 read operation 직후 이미 기록되었기 때문입니다.
`laptop_mode` knob 값은 disk I/O 발생과 flush trigger 사이의 시간을 정합니다. 합리적인 값은 5초이며, 0으로 설정하면 laptop mode를 disable합니다.
효과를 높이기 위해 control script는 `/proc/sys/vm`의 `dirty_expire_centisecs`와 `dirty_writeback_centisecs`를 기본적으로 약 10분으로 늘려 dirty page가 disk에 강제로 기록되는 빈도를 낮춥니다. dirty background ratio도 바꾸어 background dirty-page writeback이 더 이상 일어나지 않게 합니다.
ext3 filesystem의 commit 값도 10분으로 늘립니다. 그 결과 disk activity는 10분마다 한 번 또는 cache miss 때문에 disk를 강제로 spin-up할 때만 짧은 시간에 집중되며, 비활성 구간에는 disk를 spin-down할 수 있습니다.
Configuration option
105-186configuration file은 Debian 계열의 `/etc/default/laptop-mode` 또는 다른 시스템의 `/etc/sysconfig/laptop-mode`에 있으며 다음 option을 포함합니다.
| option | 설명 |
|---|---|
| MAX_AGE | 허용할 hard drive spindown 시간의 최댓값(초)입니다. battery가 laptop mode 중 실패하면 최악의 경우 이 시간만큼 작업을 잃을 수 있습니다. |
| MINIMUM_BATTERY_MINUTES | 남은 battery 시간이 이 값보다 작으면 laptop mode를 자동 disable합니다. 기본값은 10분입니다. |
| AC_HD / BATT_HD | laptop mode가 비활성일 때와 활성일 때의 hard-drive idle timeout입니다. 기본값은 AC에서 2시간(`244`), battery에서 20초(`4`)입니다. 가능한 값은 `hdparm -S` manual을 따릅니다. |
| HD | laptop mode가 spindown timeout을 조정할 device입니다. 기본값은 `/dev/hda`이며 여러 device는 space로 구분합니다. |
| READAHEAD | laptop mode 중 disk readahead 크기이며 단위는 512-byte sector입니다. 큰 값은 demand-load executable page나 MP3 같은 sequential data 때문에 생기는 disk access를 줄일 수 있습니다. |
| DO_REMOUNTS | journaled filesystem을 적절한 commit interval로 자동 remount합니다. `0`이면 disable합니다. |
| DO_REMOUNT_NOATIME | remount할 때 `noatime`을 추가할지 정합니다. 보통 `1`이지만 access-time 기록이 필요한 program이 있을 수 있습니다. |
| DIRTY_RATIO | 강제 writeback 전까지 dirty 또는 미저장 data가 차지해도 되는 memory 비율입니다. `/proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio`에 대응합니다. |
| DIRTY_BACKGROUND_RATIO | `DIRTY_RATIO` 초과로 강제 writeback한 뒤 남겨 둘 dirty memory 비율입니다. 낮게 설정하며 `/proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio`에 대응합니다. |
| DO_CPU | laptop mode에서 CPU frequency scaling을 enable합니다. CPUFreq 설정이 필요하며 기본적으로 disable입니다. `Documentation/admin-guide/pm/cpufreq.rst`를 참조하십시오. |
| CPU_MAXFREQ | battery 사용 중 허용할 최대 CPU speed입니다. CPU 최저 속도를 뜻하는 `slowest` 또는 `/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies`에 나열된 값을 사용합니다. |
`dirty_background_ratio`의 동작은 laptop mode 활성 여부에 따라 크게 다릅니다. 비활성일 때는 background writeout을 시작하는 threshold 비율입니다. 활성일 때는 background writeout이 disable되므로 `dirty_ratio`에 도달했을 때 얼마만큼 writeback할지만 정합니다.
팁과 요령
187-217Bartek Kania는 5초 spindown time(`BATT_HD=1`)으로 평소 3~3.5시간에 최대 50분의 battery 사용 시간을 더 얻었다고 보고했습니다.
disk readahead를 8MB(`READAHEAD=16384`)로 설정하면 MP3를 재생하면서 disk를 spin-down할 수 있습니다. disk가 MP3 하나를 한 번에 읽고 재생 중에는 spin-down하는 방식입니다.
Drew Scott Daniels는 display 색상 수를 줄였을 때 battery 소비가 감소했으며 PowerBook에서도 이를 보았다고 보고했습니다.
`syslog.conf` entry 앞에 dash `-`를 붙이면 logging할 때마다 file을 sync하지 않습니다. laptop mode에서 disk가 spin-down하지 않는다면 이것이 원인일 가능성이 큽니다.
Richard Atterer는 laptop mode와 `noflushd`가 잘 동작하지 않으며, noflushd가 laptop mode의 동작을 방해하는 것으로 보인다고 관찰했습니다.
데이터가 걱정된다면 USB memory stick 등을 작업 영역으로 사용할 수 있습니다. 다만 flash memory는 write 횟수가 제한되어 과도하게 사용하면 빠르게 마모될 수 있습니다. flash memory stick에 journalling filesystem을 사용하지 마십시오.
Control·ACPI script용 configuration file
218-304이 외부 configuration file을 사용하면 control script와 ACPI battery script의 tunable을 바꿀 수 있습니다. Debian에서는 `/etc/default/laptop-mode`, Red Hat·SUSE·Mandrake 및 유사 시스템에서는 `/etc/sysconfig/laptop-mode`로 설치합니다.
아래 원문 configuration은 `MAX_AGE`, battery threshold, readahead, remount·noatime, dirty ratio 기본값, XFS timer, CPUFreq, `hdparm` timeout과 대상 drive를 정의합니다. Kernel 2.4의 XFS external interface는 `HZ`를 수동 반영해야 하지만 2.6은 항상 100인 `USER_HZ`를 사용합니다.
# Maximum time, in seconds, of hard drive spindown time that you are
# comfortable with. Worst case, it's possible that you could lose this
# amount of work if your battery fails you while in laptop mode.
#MAX_AGE=600

# that you have left goes below this threshold.
MINIMUM_BATTERY_MINUTES=10
# Read-ahead, in 512-byte sectors. You can spin down the disk while playing MP3/OGG

# This must be adjusted manually to the value of HZ in the running kernel
# on 2.4, until the XFS people change their 2.4 external interfaces to work in
# centisecs. This can be automated, but it's a work in progress that still
# needs# some fixes. On 2.6 kernels, XFS uses USER_HZ instead of HZ for
# external interfaces, and that is currently always set to 100. So you don't
# need to change this on 2.6.
#XFS_HZ=100
# Should the maximum CPU frequency be adjusted down while on battery?
# Requires CPUFreq to be setup.
# See Documentation/admin-guide/pm/cpufreq.rst for more info
#DO_CPU=0
# When on battery what is the maximum CPU speed that the system should
# use? Legal values are "slowest" for the slowest speed that your
# CPU is able to operate at, or a value listed in:
# /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies
# Only applicable if DO_CPU=1.
#CPU_MAXFREQ=slowest
# Idle timeout for your hard drive (man hdparm for valid values, -S option)
# Default is 2 hours on AC (AC_HD=244) and 20 seconds for battery (BATT_HD=4).
#AC_HD=244
#BATT_HD=4

# Set the spindown timeout on a hard drive?
#DO_HD=1
Control script 초기화와 기본값
305-400이 control script는 Kiko Piris의 기여로 Linux 2.4와 2.6 series에서 동작합니다. AC 전원 연결 상태가 바뀔 때 power-management daemon이 `/sbin/laptop_mode`를 `start` 또는 `stop`으로 실행하는 용도입니다.
script는 배포판별 configuration file을 source하고, 빠진 값에는 기본값을 설정합니다. writeback age·ratio, XFS 기본 timer, disk timeout, readahead와 CPU frequency 값을 준비합니다. Kernel 2.4의 XFS에는 `HZ`, 2.6 external interface에는 `USER_HZ=100`을 사용합니다.
#!/bin/bash
# start or stop laptop_mode, best run by a power management daemon when
# ac gets connected/disconnected from a laptop

Kernel 검사와 mount option helper
401-537script는 `uname -r`에서 major.minor를 읽어 Linux 2.4 또는 2.6만 허용합니다. `/proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode`의 존재와 write 권한도 확인합니다.
`parse_mount_opts()`와 `parse_nonumber_mount_opts()`는 숫자형·boolean mount option을 제거합니다. `parse_yesno_opts_wfstab()`과 `parse_mount_opts_wfstab()`은 `/etc/fstab`의 원래 설정을 조회해 `atime/noatime`과 `commit=NNN`을 복구합니다. `deduce_fstype()`은 `/etc/mtab`에서 type이 `unknown`일 때 `/etc/fstab`에서 실제 type을 찾습니다.

ext3·XFS mount option은 `/etc/fstab`을 기준으로 `commit`과 `atime` 상태를 되돌리고 readahead는 256으로 설정합니다. `hdparm -S $AC_HD -B 255`로 AC용 disk 설정을 적용하고 CPU maximum frequency도 hardware 최댓값으로 복원합니다. 인수가 `start|stop`이 아니면 usage를 출력하고 실패합니다.

ACPI event 통합과 low-battery 보호
686-765Dax Kelson은 ACPI `acpid` daemon이 `laptop_mode` script와 `hdparm`을 실행하도록 이 통합 예제를 제출했습니다. battery가 부족할 때 laptop mode를 자동 disable하는 부분은 Jan Topinski가 작성했습니다.
/etc/acpi/events/ac_adapter
AC adapter event를 `/etc/acpi/actions/ac.sh`로 전달합니다.
event=ac_adapter
action=/etc/acpi/actions/ac.sh %e
/etc/acpi/events/battery
battery event를 `/etc/acpi/actions/battery.sh`로 전달합니다.
event=battery.*
action=/etc/acpi/actions/battery.sh %e
/etc/acpi/actions/ac.sh
AC 상태가 `on-line`이면 `/sbin/laptop_mode stop`, `off-line`이면 `/sbin/laptop_mode start`를 실행합니다.
#!/bin/bash
# ac on/offline event handler
status=`awk '/^state: / { print $2 }' /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/$2/state`
case $status in
"on-line")
/sbin/laptop_mode stop
exit 0

laptop mode가 활성이고 battery state 파일이 있으면 configuration을 읽고, remaining capacity와 present rate로 남은 시간을 계산합니다. 남은 시간이 `MINIMUM_BATTERY_MINUTES`보다 작으면 laptop mode를 중지합니다. battery interface가 없으면 데이터 손실 가능성을 알리는 daemon warning을 기록합니다.
#! /bin/bash
# Automatically disable laptop mode when the battery almost runs out.
