    摘要: Apparatus, systems, and methods to manage memory operations are described. In one example, a controller comprises logic to receive a first transaction to operate on a first data element in a volatile memory, determine whether the first data element is to be stored in a nonvolatile memory, and in response to a determination that the first data element is to be stored in a nonvolatile memory, to forward the first transaction to the memory controller coupled to the nonvolatile memory. Other examples are also disclosed and claimed.

    摘要: Technologies for system management interrupt (“SMI”) handling include a number of processor cores configured to enter a system management mode (“SMM”) in response to detecting an SMI. The first processor core to enter SMM and acquire a master thread lock sets an in-progress flag and executes a master SMI handler without waiting for other processor cores to enter SMM. Other processor cores execute a subordinate SMI handler. The master SMI handler may direct the subordinate SMI handlers to handle core-specific SMIs. The multi-core processor may set an SMI service pending flag in response to detecting the SMI, which is cleared by the processor core that acquires the master thread lock. A processor core entering SMM may immediately resume normal execution upon determining the in-progress flag is not set and the service pending flag is not set, to detect and mitigate spurious SMIs. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    摘要: Embodiments of apparatus, computer-implemented methods, systems, devices, and computer-readable media are described herein for a computing device with a platform entity such as an interrupt handier configured to notify an operating system or virtual machine monitor executing on the computing device of an input/output error-containment event. In various embodiments, the interrupt handler may be configured to facilitate recovery of a link to an input/output device that caused the input/output error-containment event, responsive to a directive from the operating system or virtual machine monitor.

    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: Memory reconfiguration during system run-time is described. In one example, a system includes a memory slot to carry a memory board and to connect the memory board to a memory controller for read and write operations, a logic device having a plurality of status registers to record the status of the memory slot and a plurality of control registers to control the operation of the memory slot, and a bus interface coupled through direct signal lines to the memory slot to communicate status and control signals with the memory slot and coupled through a serial bus to the logic device to communicate status and control signals with the logic device.
