    摘要: Data is transmitted between a first device and a second device connected by the communications channel in a computer system. The first device generates a first clock and the second device generates a second clock. The first clock is provided to the second device and the second clock is provided to the first device. Data received by the first device over the communications channel from the second device is synchronized to the first clock. The receiving logic in the first device includes a first-in-first-out buffer The received data is stored in a first-in-first-out buffer until the data is synchronized to the first clock. The first and second clocks have the same frequency.

    摘要: Access to a bus in a computer system having a CPU and bus devices capable of running cycles on a bus is controlled by an arbiter. The arbiter grants access to the bus according to an arbitration scheme that depends on whether a request for the bus is pending from the CPU, in which a first arbitration scheme arbitrates between the bus devices, and wherein a second arbitration scheme arbitrates between the CPU and at least one other bus device if the CPU request is present.

    摘要: A computer system includes a first device on the first data bus, a second device on the second data bus, and a bridge device that delivers requests for data from the first device to the second device and returns the requested data to the first device. The bridge device includes a first data storage buffer that stores data requested by the first device during the first request, and a second data buffer that simultaneously stores data requested by the first device during a second request.

    摘要: Performance of a bus in a computer system is monitored. A predetermined total period is counted, and usage of the bus for data transfers during the total period is measured. The bus is monitored for active cycles and a period is counted in which the active cycles are present during the total period. The bus is monitored for data transfer cycles and a period is counted in which the data transfer cycles are present during the total period. Bus efficiency is measured based on the active period and data transfer period. Read data usage on the bus is also measured. A first amount of data read by a first device is monitored, and a second amount of read data used by a second bus device is monitored. The read efficiency is determined based on the first and second amounts.

    摘要: Dynamically managing power consumption in a computer system having at least two parallel power converters in order to improve efficiency. A maximum power capacity for each of the power converters is determined and then power consumption of the computer system is monitored. If the power consumption of the computer system can be provided by less than all of the parallel power converters then one or more of the power converters is turned off, such that a reduced number of parallel power converters remains turned on. A reduced maximum power capacity of the reduced number of parallel power converters is determined and a power cap value is set for the computer system that is less than or equal to the reduced maximum power capacity. The computer system is throttled at the power cap to prevent power consumption of the computer system from exceeding the power cap value.
