Abstract: A processor is described comprising: instruction failure logic to perform a plurality of operations in response to a detected instruction execution failure, the instruction failure logic to be used for instructions which have complex failure modes and which are expected to have a failure frequency above a threshold, wherein the operations include: detecting an instruction execution failure and determining a reason for the failure; storing failure data in a destination register to indicate the failure and to specify details associated with the failure; and allowing application program code to read the failure data and responsively take one or more actions responsive to the failure, wherein the instruction failure logic performs its operations without invocation of an exception handler or switching to a low level domain on a system which employs hierarchical protection domains.

Abstract: A method and apparatus to reduce the idle link power in a platform. In one embodiment of the invention, the host and its coupled endpoint(s) in the platform each has a low power idle link state that allows disabling of the high speed link circuitry in both the host and its coupled endpoint(s). This allows the platform to reduce its idle power as both the host and its coupled endpoint(s) are able to turn off their high speed link circuitry in one embodiment of the invention.
