Publication number: 20040186921Abstract: A processor is disclosed that can map a request from a central processing unit that uses memory-mapped input-output space to a second processing domain, such as a multithreaded processing domain. A request addressed to the input-output space of the central processing unit is converted to a corresponding command that simulates an operation between components in the multithreaded processing domain. The command is executed in the multithreaded processing domain. Information is accessed according to the request in response to executing the command.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 17, 2004Publication date: September 23, 2004Applicant: Intel Corporation, a California corporationInventors: Gilbert Wolrich, Debra Bernstein, Daniel Cutter, Christopher Dolan, Matthew J.

Publication number: 20030172313Abstract: A system has a processor with multiple states, including an awake state and a sleep state, a memory subsystem including a memory controller and memory devices, and a second memory. The system uses software in the second memory to initialize the memory controller upon a transition from a sleep state to an awake state. The system detects a wake event trigger, and in response to the wake event trigger, executes software stored in the second memory to initialize the memory controller, and then executes software out of the first memory after the initialization.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 12, 2003Publication date: September 11, 2003Applicant: Intel Corporation, a California corporationInventors: Satchit Jain, Sung-Soo Cho
