Appl. No.:

13/405957

Inventors:

Xiao Gang Zheng - Sunnyvale CA, US
Ming L. So - Danville CA, US

Assignee:

ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES, INC. - Sunnyvale CA

International Classification:

G06F 12/00
G06F 3/00
G06F 13/36

US Classification:

711103, 710306, 710 10, 711E12008

Abstract:

A circuit for use in a computing system including and a bus interface unit and an autoload controller. The autoload controller has an input to receive an initialization signal. In response to receiving the initialization signal, autoload controller searches for a signature using the bus interface unit and, in response to finding the signature at a signature address, loads a plurality of base addresses corresponding to a plurality of controllers from memory locations having a predetermined relationship to the address, and provides the plurality of base addresses to a control output thereof.

Inventors:

Xiao Gang Zheng - Sunnyvale CA, US

Assignee:

ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES, INC. - Sunnyvale CA

International Classification:

G06F 13/26

US Classification:

710264

Abstract:

Methods and apparatuses are provided for servicing an interrupt in a computer system. The method includes a device driver receiving an interrupt request. The device driver is responsive to the interrupt request to store interrupt data in a portion of the memory. The interrupt data includes identification of at least one processor of the plurality of processors capable of servicing the interrupt request; priority of the interrupt request; a thread context; and an address for instructions to service the interrupt request. The device driver then instructs the peripheral device to issue a memory write to the plurality of processors so that each may determine if it can use the thread context and the instructions to service the interrupt. A computer system is provided with the hardware needed to perform the method.

International Classification:

G06F 1/32

Abstract:

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for aligning active and idle phases of components in a computing system are disclosed. A computing system includes components that can be forced into an active or idle phase and components that cannot be forced into an active or idle phase. The system implements schemes for aligning the active and idle phases of the components within the system. For example, a timer starts counting when a processor and memory subsystem go from a low power state to an operational state. If the amount of time spent by the processor and memory subsystems in the operational state without transitioning to the low power state exceeds a threshold, the system forces active-to-idle and idle-to-active phase transitions of components in the system in order to cause a realignment of active and idle phases of the various components within the system.

Abstract:

Current computer systems support sleep states such as sleep state S and sleep state S A system in sleep state S utilizes more power than one in sleep state S however, a system in sleep state S can resume function substantially faster than a system in sleep state S An idle system is often put into sleep state S rather than sleep state S because of the shorter resume time even though sleep state S utilizes more power. Embodiments include a reduced-power sleep state S that uses less power than sleep state S yet resumes function faster than sleep state S Embodiments reduce the power consumed by compressing and consolidating system context to fewer memory modules, and powering down unused memory modules. Embodiments thus avoid storing system content to non-volatile memory. Embodiments include waking the system by restoring system context in the reverse order to respective memory modules.
