certain devices). In this document, S5 means the function to shut down the

**User VMs**, **the Service VM**, the hypervisor, and the hardware. In most cases,
directly shutting down the power of a computer system is not advisable because it can
damage some components. It can cause corruption and put the system in an unknown or
unstable state. On ACRN, the User VM must be shut down before powering off the Service VM.

How to trigger User VM's S5?
============================
Trigger the User VM's S5
========================
On Service VM side, it uses the ``acrnctl`` tool to trigger the User VM's S5 flow:
``acrnctl stop user-vm-name``. Then Device Model will send a ``shutdown`` command
to User VM through channel, if User VM receives the command, it will send an "ACK"
to Device Model. It is the responsibility of Service VM to check if the User VMs
On the Service VM side, it uses the ``acrnctl`` tool to trigger the User VM's S5 flow:
``acrnctl stop user-vm-name``. Then, the Device Model sends a ``shutdown`` command
to the User VM through a channel. If the User VM receives the command, it will send an "ACK"
to the Device Model. It is the Service VM's responsibility to check if the User VMs
shutdown successfully or not, and decides when to power off itself.
What does "life cycle manager" in User VM do?
=============================================
User VM "life-cycle manager"
============================
As current S5 reference design, there is a life-cycle manager daemon (life_mngr) running in
User VM to implement S5. It will wait for the command from Service VM on the
paired serial port, there is a simple protocol between Service VM and User VM:
when it receives ``shutdown``, then send "acked" to Service VM, then it can power off
User VM.
However, if the User VM is not ready to power off, it can ignore the ``shutdown`` command.
