    摘要: A processor saves micro-architectural contexts to increase the efficiency of code execution and power management. A save instruction is executed to store a micro-architectural state and an architectural state of a processor in a common buffer of a memory upon a context switch that suspends the execution of a process. The micro-architectural state contains performance data resulting from the execution of the process. A restore instruction is executed to retrieve the micro-architectural state and the architectural state from the common buffer upon a resumed execution of the process. Power management hardware then uses the micro-architectural state as an intermediate starting point for the resumed execution.
