摘要:
Technologies for providing manageability redundancy for micro server and clustered System-on-a-Chip (SoC) deployments are presented. A configurable multi-processor apparatus may include multiple integrated circuit (IC) blocks where each IC block includes a task block to perform one or more assignable task functions and a management block to perform management functions with respect to the corresponding IC block. Each task block and each management block may include one or more instruction processors and corresponding memory. Each IC block may be controllable to perform a function of one or more other IC blocks. The IC blocks may communicate with each other via a management communication infrastructure that may include a communication path from each of the management blocks to each of the other management blocks. Via the management communication infrastructure, the management blocks may bridge communication paths between pairs of management blocks.

Technologies for facilitating inter-system-on-a-chip (SoC) communication include a first SoC, a second SoC, and a dedicated manageability controller network. The first SoC includes a first main processor, a first manageability controller, and a memory dedicated to the first manageability controller and having manageability controller firmware stored thereon. The first manageability controller is different from the first main processor and to control functions of the first SoC. The second SoC is different from the first SoC and includes a second main processor and a second manageability control, which is different from the second main processor and to control functions of the second SoC. The second SoC is to access the manageability controller firmware of the memory of the first SoC over the dedicated manageability network.
摘要:
An apparatus and system for throttling I/O devices in a computer system is provided. In an example, a method for throttling device power demand during critical power events. The method includes detecting a critical power event and issuing a signal to system devices to defer optional transactions during the critical power event.

The present invention is in the field of embedded systems. More particularly, some embodiments initialize, reconfigure, and shut down a module function to provide a unified solution for software development.
摘要:
A system and method for software modularization and automatic code generation for embedded systems is disclosed. An embedded systems software application module is disclosed comprising an initialization/shutdown unit that allows for shutdown and initialization of the module, and a module proper that provides the functionality of the module and having a management/configuration manager interface used to communicate between the module proper and a configuration manager and one or more configuration management units such that the module proper is management access type independent. Optionally, the module may further comprise one or more configuration management units that provide specific management of and interaction with the module proper. There is also provided a toolset to facilitate code generation and development for creating an embedded systems software application from one or more such modules.
