    Abstract: In one embodiment, a processor includes a plurality of cores, at least two of which may execute redundantly, a configuration register to store a first synchronization domain indicator to indicate that a first core and a second core are associated with a first synchronization domain, and a power controller having a synchronization circuit to cause a dynamic adjustment to a frequency of at least one of the first and second cores to cause these cores to operate at a common frequency, based at least in part on the first synchronization domain indicator. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with current control for a multicore processor are disclosed herein. In embodiments, a multicore processor may include a plurality of analog current comparators, each analog current comparator to measure current utilization by a corresponding one of the cores of the multicore processor. The multicore processor may include one or more processors, devices, and/or circuitry to cause the cores to individually throttle based on measurements from the corresponding analog current comparators. In some embodiments, a memory device of the multicore processor may store instructions executable to operate a plurality power management agents to determine whether to send throttle requests based on a plurality of histories of the current measurements of the cores, respectively.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a processor includes: a plurality of cores; a power controller including a logic to autonomously demote a first request for at least one core of the plurality of cores to enter a first low power state, to cause the at least one core to enter a second low power state, the first low power state a deeper low power state than the second low power state; and an interface to receive an input from a system software, the input including at least one demotion control parameter, where the logic is to autonomously demote the first request based at least in part on the at least one demotion control parameter. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, a processor includes multiple cores each to independently execute instructions and a power control unit (PCU) coupled to the plurality of cores to control power consumption of the processor. The PCU may include a mapping logic to receive a performance scale value from an operating system (OS) and to calculate a dynamic performance-frequency mapping based at least in part on the performance scale value. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
