# acpi\_rapidstart(4freebsd)

Intel rapid start technology ACPI driver

## NAME

**acpi\_rapidstart** – Intel rapid start technology ACPI driver

## SYNOPSIS

To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file:

**device acpi\_rapidstart**

Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in [loader.conf(5)](/loader.conf/5.md):

```
acpi_rapidstart_load="YES"
```

## DESCRIPTION

The **acpi\_rapidstart** driver provides support for Intel Rapid Start technology ACPI device interface. Note that this is only for the ACPI device interface. This has \_CID PNP0C02 so it should be loaded at boot time to avoid attaching to the acpi\_sysresource driver.

## SYSCTLS

The following [sysctl(8)](/sysctl/8.md) nodes are currently implemented:

- *dev.acpi\_rapidstart.0.ffs*

  Rapid start flag. It is a bitwise OR of the following:

  - 1

    Enter Fast Flash Standby in RTC wake.

  - 2

    Enter Fast Flash Standby in Critical Battery Wake enable

- *dev.acpi\_rapidstart.0.ftv*

  Fast Flash Standby timer value in minutes.

## SEE ALSO
