摘要:
In one embodiment, the present invention includes a cache, compute engines connected to the cache, and a way mask disposed between the cache and the compute engines. This way mask may be partitioned into ways. Some of the ways may be dedicated to only one of the compute engines and other ways can be shared among more than one of the compute engines. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
The present invention discloses a method comprising: sending cache request; monitoring power state; comparing said power state; allocating cache resources; filling cache; updating said power state; repeating said sending, said monitoring, said comparing, said allocating, said filling, and said updating until workload is completed.
摘要:
Embodiments described herein vary an amount of cache available for use by a processor, and an amount of power supplied to the cache and to the processor, based on the amount of cache actually being used by the processor to process data. For example, a power control unit (PCU) may monitor a last level cache (LLC) to identify if the size or amount of the cache being used by a processor to process data and to determine heuristics based on that amount. Based on the monitored amount of cache being used and the heuristics, the PCU causes a corresponding decrease or increase in an amount of the cache available for use by the processor, and a corresponding decrease or increase in an amount of power supplied to the cache and to the processor.
摘要:
According to one embodiment of the invention, an integrated circuit device at least one compute engine and a control unit. Coupled to the compute engine(s), the control unit is adapted to dynamically control an energy-efficient operating setting of at least one power management parameter for the integrated circuit device after execution of Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) has already completed.

Embodiments of an apparatus for improving performance for events handling are presented. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a number of processing elements and task routing logic. If at least one of the processing elements is in a turbo mode, the task routing logic selects a processing element for executing a task based at least on a comparison of performance losses.
摘要:
In an embodiment, a processor includes a core domain with a plurality of cores and a power controller having a first logic to receive a first request to increase an operating voltage of a first core of the core domain to a second voltage, to instruct a voltage regulator to increase the operating voltage to an interim voltage, and to thereafter instruct the voltage regulator to increase the operating voltage to the second voltage. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
In one embodiment, the present invention includes a processor having a first domain with a first compute engine and a second domain with a second compute engine, where each of these domains can operate at an independent voltage and frequency. A first logic may be present to update a power bias value used to control dynamic allocation of power between the first and second domains based at least in part on a busyness of the second domain. In turn, a second logic may dynamically allocate at least a portion of a power budget for the processor between the domains based at least in part on this power bias value. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
