    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to improving remote traffic performance on cluster-aware processors. An embodiment of a system includes at least one processor package comprising a plurality of processor ports and a plurality of system agents; and a memory device to store platform initialization firmware to cause the processing system to: determine first locations of the plurality of processor ports in the at least one processor package; determine second locations of the plurality of system agents in the at least one processor package; associate each of the processor ports with a set of the plurality of system agents based on the determined first and second locations; and program the plurality of system agents with the associated processor port for the respective system agent.

    Abstract: A method and system for error check and scrub (ECS) error data collection and reporting for a memory device. A controller includes circuitry and a buffer. The circuitry may be configured to read ECS error data from a register of a memory device and calculate an ECS error increase rate based on the ECS error data. The circuitry may be configured to inform basic input output system (BIOS) by interrupt if a total number of ECS errors reaches or exceeds an ECS error number threshold or if the ECS error increase rate reaches or exceeds an ECS error rate threshold. The controller may be an out-of-band device, e.g., a baseboard management controller or a memory micro controller.

    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that initializes a host-managed device memory (HDM) as a temporary proxy for a system memory, wherein the HDM is associated with an accelerator. The technology also creates a shadow copy of boot firmware code in the HDM and executes one or more boot instructions in the shadow copy of the boot firmware code. In one example, the one or more boot instructions are to be one or more of executed before an initialization of the system memory or executed in parallel with the initialization of the system memory.

    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a central processing unit (CPU) that includes at least two cores, at least two caching agents (CAs), and circuitry to monitor a workload mapped to a CA of the at least two CAs and adjust the workload allocated to the CA to allocation among the CA and at least one other CA of the at least two CAs based on the monitored workload.

    Abstract: A method includes modifying a basic input/output system (BIOS) to load a virtual general purpose input/output (GPIO) driver in an operating system, the virtual GPIO driver comprising at least one control method to monitor a system control interrupt (SCI) (202). The method can also include detecting the system control interrupt invoking the virtual GPIO driver (204) and executing the control method corresponding to the system control interrupt, the control method to be identified in the modified BIOS (206). Furthermore, the method can include detecting an error from the execution of the control method (208) and modifying an operating system to prevent the error (208), the modification Execute the Control Method Corresponding to the System Control comprising a modification to the control method.
