Abstract: A hardware controller within a core of a processor is described. The hardware controller includes telemetry logic to generate telemetry data that indicates an activity state of the core; core stall detection logic to determine, based on the telemetry data from the telemetry logic, whether the core is in an idle loop state; and a power controller that, in response to the core stall detection logic determining that the core is in the idle loop state, is to decrease a power mode of the core from a first power mode associated with a first set of power settings to a second power mode associated with a second set of power settings.

Abstract: Hierarchical Power Management (HPM) architecture considers the limits of scaling on a power management controller, the autonomy at each die, and provides a unified view of the package to a platform. At a simplest level, HPM architecture has a supervisor and one or more supervisee power management units (PMUs) that communicate via at least two different communication fabrics. Each PMU can behave as a supervisor for a number of supervisee PMUs in a particular domain. HPM addresses these needs for products that comprise a collection of dice with varying levels of power and thermal management capabilities and needs. HPM serves as a unified mechanism than can span collection of dice of varying capability and function, which together form a traditional system-on-chip (SoC). HPM provides a basis for managing power and thermals across a diverse set of dice.
