[SOLVED] Help with script

Hello:

My /proc/acpi/wakeup file reads thus:

groucho@devuan:/proc/acpi$ cat wakeup
Device	S-state	  Status   Sysfs node
USB0	  S4	*enabled   pci:0000:00:1d.0
USB1	  S4	*enabled   pci:0000:00:1d.1
USB2	  S4	*enabled   pci:0000:00:1d.2
USB5	  S4	*disabled
EUSB	  S4	*enabled   pci:0000:00:1d.7
USB3	  S4	*enabled   pci:0000:00:1a.0
USB4	  S4	*enabled   pci:0000:00:1a.1
USB6	  S4	*enabled   pci:0000:00:1a.2
USBE	  S4	*enabled   pci:0000:00:1a.7

BR13	  S4	*disabled
P0P4	  S4	*disabled  pci:0000:00:1c.4
BR15	  S4	*disabled
P0P5	  S4	*disabled  pci:0000:00:1e.0
GBE	  S4	*enabled   pci:0000:00:19.0
SLPB	  S4	*disabled
groucho@devuan:/proc/acpi$ 

I have no use for anything being enabled there and found a script to set everything to 'disabled':

See: https://gist.github.com/npcardoso/47d8f … wakeups-sh

#!/bin/bash
 
if [[ $# > 1 || ($1 != "enable" && $1 != "disable") ]]; then
         echo "Usage: $0 <enable|disable>"
         exit 1
fi

if [[ $1 == "enable" ]]; then
        TOGGLE=grep '\*disabled' /proc/acpi/wakeup | cut -d ' ' -f1

else

        TOGGLE=grep '\*enabled' /proc/acpi/wakeup | cut -d ' ' -f1

fi

for DEV in $TOGGLE; do
        echo $DEV 
        echo $DEV > /proc/acpi/wakeup

done

For some reason it is not running properly.

groucho@devuan:~$ ./acpi_wakeups.sh disable
./acpi_wakeups.sh: line 14: \*enabled: command not found
groucho@devuan:~$ 

groucho@devuan:~$ ./acpi_wakeups.sh enable
./acpi_wakeups.sh: line 10: \*disabled: command not found
groucho@devuan:~$ 

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

A.

Re: [SOLVED] Help with script

I believe that script would need to be run as the root user ?

Re: [SOLVED] Help with script

Hello:

... need to be run as the root user?

Yes, of course.

groucho@devuan:~$ sudo ./acpi_wakeups.sh enable
./acpi_wakeups.sh: line 10: \*disabled: command not found
groucho@devuan:~$ 

groucho@devuan:~$ sudo ./acpi_wakeups.sh disable
./acpi_wakeups.sh: line 14: \*enabled: command not found
groucho@devuan:~$ 

Just in case ...

[root@devuan ~]# /home/groucho/acpi_wakeups.sh enable
/home/groucho/acpi_wakeups.sh: line 10: \*disabled: command not found
[root@devuan ~]# 

[root@devuan ~]# /home/groucho/acpi_wakeups.sh disable
/home/groucho/acpi_wakeups.sh: line 14: \*enabled: command not found
[root@devuan ~]# 

Thanks for your input.

Best,

A.

Re: [SOLVED] Help with script

https://gist.github.com/npcardoso/47d8f … wakeups-sh has backticks round grep '\*disabled' /proc/acpi/wakeup | cut -d ' ' -f1 and grep '\*enabled' /proc/acpi/wakeup | cut -d ' ' -f1. Those tell bash to run the command inside the backticks and assign the output from it to TOGGLE.

You could use $(...) instead, it's easier to read if you don't get muddled about what sort of brackets to use.

Re: [SOLVED] Help with script

Use https://www.shellcheck.net/ to test scripts. That would have identified the problem along with several other issues.

Better version:

#!/bin/sh
 
if [ $# -gt 1 ] || [ "$1" != enable ] && [ "$1" != disable ]; then
         echo "Usage: $0 <enable|disable>"
         exit 1
fi

if [ "$1" = enable ]; then
        TOGGLE=$(grep '\*disabled' /proc/acpi/wakeup | cut -d ' ' -f1)

else

        TOGGLE=$(grep '\*enabled' /proc/acpi/wakeup | cut -d ' ' -f1)

fi

for DEV in $TOGGLE ; do
        echo "$DEV" 
        echo "$DEV" > /proc/acpi/wakeup

done

POSIX sh ftw!

It can be simplified further if all you want to do is disable everything:

#!/bin/sh

dev=$(awk '/*enabled/{print $1}' /proc/acpi/wakeup)

for i in $dev ; do
   echo "$i" > /proc/acpi/wakeup
done

I am not the author of the script.
Unfortunately, I don't have a clue as to how this all works.

Thanks for your input.

Re: [SOLVED] Help with script

Hello:

Use https://www.shellcheck.net/ to test scripts.

Thanks for the heads up.
Will bookmark that one for the next time.

Being a script from github, I assumed an error of some sort at my end.
As it seemed harmess enough, I just copied it, made it executable and tried it.
Never thought it would have a problem.

Better version:

#!/bin/sh
 
if [ $# -gt 1 ] || [ "$1" != enable ] && [ "$1" != disable ]; then
         echo "Usage: $0 <enable|disable>"
         exit 1
fi

if [ "$1" = enable ]; then
        TOGGLE=$(grep '\*disabled' /proc/acpi/wakeup | cut -d ' ' -f1)

else

        TOGGLE=$(grep '\*enabled' /proc/acpi/wakeup | cut -d ' ' -f1)

fi

for DEV in $TOGGLE ; do
        echo "$DEV" 
        echo "$DEV" > /proc/acpi/wakeup

done

Right.

POSIX sh ftw!

Don't quite follow you, but I'll take your word for it.  8^)

... simplified further if all you want to do is disable everything:

Yes, that would be much better.
These /proc/acpi/wakeup settings are from S4, which my box doesn't ever/won't ever go into.
And seeing how flaky ACPI tables can be, it's better to keep this disabled.

#!/bin/sh

dev=$(awk '/*enabled/{print $1}' /proc/acpi/wakeup)

for i in $dev ; do
   echo "$i" > /proc/acpi/wakeup
done

Works a charm!  8^D

Re: [SOLVED] Help with script

The script on GitHub does actually have the backticks, you must have missed them when you copied it.

POSIX sh ftw!

Don't quite follow you

The original script used bash but didn't contain anything that actually needed bash. The tests ([[...]]) were the bash version but the /bin/sh (POSIX) test ([...]) works just as well. I always prefer /bin/sh over /bin/bash because it's faster, lighter and less buggy. The Debian developers also prefer /bin/sh for the same reasons and went to quite some effort replacing all of the bash system scripts with /bin/sh versions. Ubuntu also did this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh

Hello:

Painted short, probably?
Have to be more careful.

... script used bash but didn't contain anything that actually needed bash.

I see.

... prefer /bin/sh over /bin/bash because it's faster, lighter and less buggy.
The Debian developers also prefer /bin/sh for the same reasons and went to quite some effort replacing all of the bash system scripts with /bin/sh versions.

Kudos to them.
Thanks for taking the time to explain.
