摘要:
Embodiments of apparatuses, methods, and systems for providing multiple virtual device controllers by redirecting an interrupt from a physical device controller are disclosed. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a processor, a physical device controller, and virtualization logic. The virtualization logic is to receive a first interrupt from the physical device controller, and in response, send a second interrupt to the processor from one of a plurality of virtual device controllers.

A system and method to determine a presence of devices coupled to one a more peripheral buses in a system, and dynamically reducing power consumption of a subset of the devices that are present, based on correlating application/device association and a predetermined power source budget. In one embodiment, the reducing of the power consumption is performed dynamically by having an agent reduce the power limit in a device register(s) corresponding to the subset of devices. Furthermore, in one embodiment, the power resource budget is based at least in part on a user-selected power/performance level.

An ACPI (Non-Volatile Sleeping) NVS memory region is allocated and defined so that a system BIOS can allocate a placeholder for the different parameters that are passed from the ACPI ASL code to the system management mode (SMM) handler for execution of real mode calls. The different parameters will be updated by runtime ACPI ASL code depending on what needs to be passed to the SMM handler. The SMM handler invokes appropriate calls based on retrieving of different parameters in the ACPI NVS memory region that have been passed from the ACPI ASL code.
摘要:
Methods, apparatus and machine readable medium are described in which BIOS initialization code divides one or more storage devices into two or more portions. Further, a BIOS device handler may use the portions of the divided storage devices to implement a storage array that provides attributes of one or more RAID levels.

An embodiment for modifying the contents of a revision identification register includes a revision identification register that is both readable and writable (the contents of the revision identification register are modifiable). A revision identification modification bit is also included. The contents of the revision identification register are only modifiable when the revision identification modification bit is set to indicate that writes to the revision identification register will be accepted.
