    摘要: A mechanism is provided for automatically detecting and locating equipment within an intelligent equipment rack. The intelligent equipment rack comprises a rack controller that determines whether a signal has been received indicating that a rack space in a plurality of rack spaces in the intelligent equipment rack has been occupied by a piece of electronic equipment. Responsive to receiving the signal indicating that the rack space has been occupied by the piece of electronic equipment, the rack controller updates a rack information table in the memory with occupation information related to the rack space occupied by the piece of electronic equipment.

    摘要: A method, processor and processing system provide management of per-thread pipeline resource allocation in a simultaneous multi-threaded (SMT) processor by counting indications of instruction completion for each of the threads. The indication may be the commit phase of the pipeline, which indicates results of the pipeline instruction execution are ready for write-back. The completion counts are used in a relative or absolute form to control the pipeline resource allocation. The decode or fetch rates of instructions for the threads can be controlled from the relative or absolute completion counts, providing control of scheduling instructions among the threads for execution by execution pipeline(s). Alternatively, or in combination, the thread priority registers in any thread priority management scheme can be controlled by comparison and/or scaling of the completion counts.

    摘要: A mechanism is provided for dynamically changing power caps for a set of powered elements. Current being consumed by the set of powered elements P on a branch circuit is measured and available current on the branch circuit is determined. A new total power cap for a current time period t is identified based on a current total power cap and the measured current. A difference in total power caps (ΔTPC) is determined and, for each powered element p in the set of powered elements P at the current time period, a new power cap PC (p,t) is determined based on the previous power cap PC(p,t−1) and the difference of the total power caps to the set of powered elements P. A power cap of each powered element p is then dynamically set to the new power cap PC (p,t).
