    摘要: Training of a link is performed, wherein the link is an interconnect between two devices of a computer system. A built-in self-test (BIST) of the link is performed. A result from the link training is compared to a result from the BIST. A link status of the link is posted, wherein the link status is based at least in part on the result from the link training and the result from the BIST.

    摘要: In accordance with some embodiments, a cloud service provider may operate a data center in a way that dynamically reallocates resources across nodes within the data center based on both utilization and service level agreements. In other words, the allocation of resources may be adjusted dynamically based on current conditions. The current conditions in the data center may be a function of the nature of all the current workloads. Instead of simply managing the workloads in a way to increase overall execution efficiency, the data center instead may manage the workload to achieve quality of service requirements for particular workloads according to service level agreements.

    摘要: Various embodiments described herein include one or more of systems, methods, firmware, and software to synchronize system information between processors during system boot in a links-based multi-processor system. Some embodiments synchronize data block by block through memory rather than piece by piece through registers by allowing a System Bootstrap Processor (“SBSP”) to directly access synchronization data in local memory of each of one or more Application Processors. These and other embodiments are described in greater detail below.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus to simplify configuration calculation and management of a processor system are disclosed. An example disclosed method reads system configuration data from registers of a processing system, caches the system configuration data in an allocated memory, and calculates new system configuration data for the processing system by operating on cached data. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

    摘要: Improved reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) is provided by an extensible and flexible firmware architecture. The architecture provides management for events, where an event is a response to an imminent failure of or capacity change requirement applicable to a component of the system. In response to an event, control of a system is transferred from an operating system to the firmware manager. The manager identifies an action that is specified by the event. Based on the action, the firmware manager selects a firmware handler from a plurality of firmware handlers. The firmware manager dispatches the selected firmware handler to perform the specified action. The firmware manager and the dispatched firmware handler exchange system-independent information regarding the event. The firmware manager also manages time-slices for the performance of the specified action by the dispatched firmware handler.
