The (gnu services pm) module provides a Guix service definition for
the Linux Power Profiles Daemon, which makes power profiles handling
available over D-Bus.
The available profiles consist of the default ‘balanced’ mode, a ‘power-saver’ mode and on supported systems a ‘performance’ mode.
Important: The
power-profiles-daemonconflicts with other power management tools liketlp. Using both together is not recommended.
This is the service type for the
Power
Profiles Daemon. The value for this service is a
power-profiles-daemon-configuration.
To enable the Power Profiles Daemon with default configuration add this line to your services:
(service power-profiles-daemon-service-type)
Data type representing the configuration of
power-profiles-daemon-service-type.
power-profiles-daemon (default: power-profiles-daemon) (type: file-like)Package object of power-profiles-daemon.
The (gnu services pm) module provides a Guix service definition for
the Linux power management tool TLP.
TLP enables various powersaving modes in userspace and kernel. Contrary to
upower-service, it is not a passive, monitoring tool, as it will
apply custom settings each time a new power source is detected. More
information can be found at TLP
home page.
The service type for the TLP tool. The default settings are optimised for
battery life on most systems, but you can tweak them to your heart’s content
by adding a valid tlp-configuration:
(service tlp-service-type
(tlp-configuration
(cpu-scaling-governor-on-ac (list "performance"))
(sched-powersave-on-bat? #t)))
Each parameter definition is preceded by its type; for example,
‘boolean foo’ indicates that the foo parameter should be
specified as a boolean. Types starting with maybe- denote parameters
that won’t show up in TLP config file when their value is left unset, or is
explicitly set to the %unset-value value.
