摘要： A processing node tracks probe activity level associated with its cache. The processing node and/or processing system further predicts an idle duration. If the probe activity level increases above a threshold probe activity level, and the idle duration prediction is above a threshold idle duration threshold, the processing node flushes its cache to prevent probes to the cache. If the probe activity level is above the threshold probe activity level but the predicted idle duration is too short, the performance state of the processing node is increased above its current performance state to provide enhanced performance capability in responding to the probe requests.

摘要： A method for power management is disclosed. The method may include monitoring requests for access to a memory of a memory subsystem by one or more processor cores; and monitoring requests for access to the memory conveyed by an input/output (I/O) unit. The method may further include determining if at least a first amount of time has elapsed since any one of the processor cores has asserted a memory access request and determining if at least a second amount of time has elapsed since the I/O unit has conveyed a memory access request. A first signal may be asserted if the first and second amounts of time have elapsed. A memory subsystem may be transitioned from operating in a full power state to a first low power state responsive to assertion of the first signal.
