Abstract:
Methods and apparatus relating to Priority Based Application Event Control (PAEC) to reduce application events are described. In one embodiment, PAEC may determine which applications (and their corresponding sub-system(s)) may cause a processor or platform to exit a low power consumption state. In an embodiment, PAEC may determine which applications (and their corresponding sub-system(s)) may resume operations after a processor or platform exit a low power consumption state. Other embodiments are also claimed and disclosed.

Abstract:
A method and device that implements communication over an interconnect to support improved power distribution over the interconnect. The device includes a controller to implement a device policy manager (DPM) to manage power allotment over the interconnect, and a battery feedback mechanism coupled to the controller, the battery feedback mechanism to detect a low or dead battery condition of a connected device over the interconnect and to indicate to the DPM to advertise a higher power charging level to the connected device.
Abstract:
Technologies for execution trace with automatic event triggering include a computing device that includes an execution trace hub. The trace hub observes execution trace packets and determines whether the execution trace packets match one or more event trigger rules. If an execution packet matches an event trigger rule, the trace hub invokes an event callback. The event callback may be a predefined hardware function of the computing device or a software function. The trace hub may be configured with event trigger rules and associated event callbacks, for example by writing to one or more corresponding configuration space registers. In response to invoking the event callback, the computing device may, for example, output state information of the computing device to a data storage device, halt execution, activate a debug mode of the processor, or execute a software recovery function. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract:
Power governance circuitry is provided to control a performance level of a processing unit of a processing platform. The power governance circuitry comprises measurement circuitry to measure a current utilization of the processing unit at a current operating frequency and to determine any change in utilization or power and frequency control circuitry is provided to update the current operating frequency to a new operating frequency by determining a new target quantified power expenditure to be applied in a subsequent processing cycle depending on the determination of any change in utilization or power. A new operating frequency is selected to satisfy the new target quantified power based on a scalability function specifying a variation of a given value of utilization or power with the operating frequency. A processing platform and machine readable instructions are provided to set a new quantified target power of a processing unit.
