  • Patent number: 6745296
    Abstract: Computer systems and methods that provide for cacheable above one megabyte system management random access memory (SMRAM). The systems and methods comprise a central processing unit (CPU) having a processor and a system management interrupt (SMI) dispatcher, a cache coupled to the CPU, and a chipset memory controller that interfaces the CPU to a memory. The memory includes system memory and the system management random access memory. The systems and methods un-cache the SMRAM while operating outside of system management mode, transfer CPU operation to system management mode upon execution of a system management interrupt (SMI), and change cache settings to cache the extended memory and system management random access memory with write-through. The systems and methods then change cache settings to cache the extended memory with write-back and un-cache the SMRAM upon execution of an resume instruction.
