    摘要: A method and apparatus for intelligent power management for low power link states. Some embodiments include methods, apparatuses, and systems for a device coupled to a controller via a link; a link power management engine to alter a power state of the link based on a transaction and some knowledge of future transactions between the device and the controller; and a memory or logic to store the link power management engine. In some embodiments, the memory stores information about at least one of the following: the power state of the link, the device buffering, the controller or device state or a history of transactions. In some embodiments, the device is a peripheral of a computer system. In some embodiments, the method may include transitioning the device to various link states. Other embodiments are described.

    摘要: A method and system to perform a fast reset or restart of a platform by minimizing the hardware initialization of IO devices in the platform during a restart of the platform. The basic input/output system (BIOS) of the platform traps any software initiated reset request (SIRR) or warm reset. The BIOS restores the input/output (IO) devices coupled with the platform to their previous hardware state to avoid the full platform initialization when the SIRR is trapped. The restart of the platform can be performed in a fast manner as the full platform initialization is minimized.

    摘要: A demand-based method and system of a processor power management is described. A processor is caused to enter a particular performance mode based on a first and a second utilization threshold. The particular performance mode includes at least a first performance mode, a second performance mode, and a third performance mode. The processor is caused to operate with a clock frequency in the third performance mode that is lower than the clock frequency of the processor in the first and second performance modes.

    摘要: In some embodiments, the method and apparatus to provide for the detection of processor transition states is described. Some embodiments include at least two threads which provide detection for high and low priority states, which provide for power state transitions by the operating system: The low priority thread runs just prior to entry into an idle or low power state; the high priority thread runs when the idle state is ended or the highest power state is reached. In some embodiments, the use of these threads provides for the detection of processor state transitions and idle times independently of the operating system. Other embodiments are described.
