Stuffing of roadie knocked out, set for sleep (6)

I believe the answer is:

repose

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'for sleep' is the definition.
(I know that catch some Z\\u0027s is a type of rest)

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for repose that I've seen before include "take it easy" , "Relaxation" , "calm" , "Lie at rest" , "State of tranquillity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
