    摘要: According to one embodiment, a processor includes an instruction decoder to decode instruction and a execution unit to execute instructions, the execution unit being associated with a capture logic to periodically capture operating heuristics of the execution unit, a detection logic coupled to the execution unit to evaluate the captured operating heuristics to determine whether there is a need to adjust an operating point of the execution unit, and a control logic coupled to the detection logic and the execution unit to adjust the operating point of the execution unit based on the evaluation of the operating heuristics.

    摘要: In an embodiment, a processor includes a first processor core, a second processor core, a first voltage regulator to provide a first voltage to the first processor core with a first active value when the first processor core is active, and a second voltage regulator to provide a second voltage to the second processor core with a second active value when the second processor core is active. Responsive to a request to place the first processor core in a first low power state with an associated first low power voltage value, the first voltage regulator is to reduce the first voltage to a second low power voltage value that is less than the first low power voltage value, independent of the second voltage regulator. First data stored in a first register of the first processor core is retained at the second low power value. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
