    Abstract: A method and apparatus for per core performance states in a processor. Per Core Performance States (PCPS) refer to the parallel operating of individual cores at different voltage and/frequency points. In one embodiment of the invention, the processor has a plurality of processing cores and a power control module that is coupled with each of the plurality of processing cores. The power control module facilitates each processing core to operate at a different performance state from the other processing cores. By allowing its cores to have per core performance state configuration, the processor is able to reduce its power consumption and increase its performance.

    Abstract: A processor is described that includes a processing core and a plurality of counters for the processing core. The plurality of counters are to count a first value and a second value for each of multiple threads supported by the processing core. The first value reflects a number of cycles at which a non sleep state has been requested for the first value's corresponding thread, and, a second value that reflects a number of cycles at which a non sleep state and a highest performance state has been requested for the second value's corresponding thread. The first value's corresponding thread and the second value's corresponding thread being a same thread.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a multicore processor includes cores that can independently execute instructions, each at an independent voltage and frequency. The processor may include a power controller having logic to provide for configurability of power management features of the processor. One such feature enables at least one core to operate at an independent performance state based on a state of a single power domain indicator present in a control register. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
