摘要： A computer system includes a CPU and a memory device coupled by a North bridge logic unit to an expansion bus, such as a PCI bus. A South bridge logic connects to the expansion bus and couples various secondary busses and peripheral devices to the expansion bus. The South bridge logic includes internal control devices that are targets for masters on the expansion bus. The target devices couple to the expansion bus through a common expansion target interface, which monitors and translates master cycles on the expansion bus on behalf of the target devices. The South bridge also includes an internal modular target expansion bus coupling the internal target devices to the common target interface. The internal modular target expansion bus permits the target devices to receive master cycles from any expansion bus by understanding a standardized group of signals represented by the internal modular target expansion (IMAX) bus. The target interface then is responsible for understanding the protocol of the expansion bus and converting the expansion bus signals to IMAX target bus signals. The IMAX target bus includes both an inbound bus and an outbound data bus for driving out data requested as part of a read cycle to an internal target device.

摘要： A computer system includes a CPU and a memory device coupled by a North bridge logic unit to an expansion bus, such as a PCI bus. A South bridge logic connects to the expansion bus and couples various secondary busses and peripheral devices to the expansion bus. The South bridge logic includes internal control devices or master devices that are designed to run master cycles on the expansion bus. The master devices couple to the expansion bus through a common expansion master interface, which executes master cycles on the expansion bus on behalf of the master devices. The South bridge also includes an internal modular master expansion bus coupling the internal master devices to the common master interface. The internal modular master expansion bus permits the master devices to run master cycles to any expansion bus by understanding a standardized group of signals represented by the internal modular master expansion (IMAX) bus. The master interface then is responsible for understanding the protocol of the expansion bus and converting the IMAX master bus signals to signals compatible with the expansion bus. In addition, a dedicated target IMAX bus may also be provided for coupling internal targets within the South bridge to masters on the expansion bus through a common expansion target interface.

摘要： A computer system includes a secondary bus bridge device in a portable computer and a another secondary bus bridge device in an expansion base to which the portable computer connects (docks). A peripheral in the expansion base may initiate a delayed cycle to read or write data to memory through a primary bus bridge device that also couples to a CPU. Both secondary bus bridge devices include an arbiter for controlling arbitration of a peripheral bus that connects both secondary bridge devices. The arbiter in the secondary bridge of the portable computer determines which of the arbiters will have arbitration control of the expansion bus to run cycles. When read data is available, in the case of a delayed read cycle initiated by a peripheral device in the expansion base, the primary bridge strobes a delayed cycle control signal to the arbiter in the portable computer which then gives arbitration control to the arbiter in the expansion base.

摘要： A hot spare boot circuit that automatically switches from a non-operational CPU to an operational CPU for powering up the computer system. In the multiprocessor computer system, a first CPU is designated to perform power on operations. If the first CPU fails, which is determined when a dead man counter in the hot spare boot circuit times out, the hot spare circuit ensures that the first CPU is in a disabled state. Next, the hot spare boot circuit identifies an operational second CPU, reinitializing certain ID information as necessary such that the second CPU can properly perform power on operations. The hot spare boot then awakens the second CPU, using a startup interprocessor interrupt in one embodiment, or simply negating the hard reset of the second CPU in a second embodiment. The second CPU then proceeds to perform the power on functions.

摘要： A process is disclosed for using the existing Universal Resource Identifier (URI) history feature of browsers to maintain user preference settings, or other state information, used by one or more web sites or other systems. In one embodiment, when a user makes a particular preference selection on a web site, the user's selection is recorded in the browser's URI history by causing the browser to access a URI (or a set of URIs) representing the particular selection. The same or a different web site may subsequently test the browser's URI history for this particular URI by including appropriate JavaScript or other executable code in a page requested by the browser. Depending upon the outcome of this test, the web site and/or the page's executable code may take an appropriate action or inaction consistent with the preference selection.
