摘要:
A computing system can include a platform firmware to monitor hardware errors and to notify an operating system when a corrective action is to be performed to address a hardware error. The computing system can also include an extended error log to describe a hardware error. The computing system can further include an action record to direct the operating system to perform the corrective action to address the hardware error.
摘要:
A non-volatile random access memory (NVRAM) is used in a computer system to perform multiple roles in the platform storage hierarchy. The NVRAM is byte-rewritable and byte-erasable by the processor. The NVRAM is coupled to the processor to be directly accessed by the processor without going through an I/O subsystem. The NVRAM stores a Basic Input and Output System (BIOS). During a Pre-Extensible Firmware Interface (PEI) phase of the boot process, the cache within the processor can be used in a write-back mode for execution of the BIOS.
摘要:
A firmware assisted error handling scheme in a computer system has been disclosed. In one embodiment, firmware is used to access one or more hardware-specific error registers within the computer system in response to a system management interrupt (SMI) trap. Using the firmware, an error record in a common error record format is constructed. The error record is made available to an operating system (OS) within the computer system.
摘要:
In some embodiments, a PPM interface may be provided with functionality to facilitate to an OS memory power state management for one or more memory nodes, regardless of a particular platform hardware configuration, as long as the platform hardware is in conformance with the PPM interface.

A system of ranking e-mail threads is disclosed. The system receives e-mail messages, and determines e-mail threads in response to the e-mail messages. The system determines an e-mail rank associated with each e-mail message in the e-mail threads, where an e-mail rank associated with an e-mail message is determined in response to a sender identifier related to the e-mail message. The system also determines a thread rank for each e-mail thread, where a thread rank associated with an e-mail thread is determined in response to e-mail ranks of each e-mail message associated with each respective e-mail thread. The system then determines an ordering of the e-mail threads based on the thread rank associated with each e-mail thread.
