  • Patent number: 11960372
    Abstract: An information handling system includes a memory and a processor. The memory stores a basic input/output system (BIOS). The processor monitors the BIOS for a unified extensible firmware interface (UEFI) event. In response to a detection of the UEFI event, the processor reads a preauthorized event callback order. The processor compares a callback order for the UEFI event with the preauthorized event callback order. Based on the callback order for the UEFI event not matching the preauthorized event callback order, the processor detects a potential vulnerability in the UEFI event. In response to the detected potential vulnerability in the UEFI event, the processor dispatches one or more callback functions from the preauthorized event callback order.

  • Patent number: 11927950
    Abstract: A system for communicating between redundant devices balances the desired attributes of a high availability (HA) control system and a safety control system. The system includes concurrent connections as a fault tolerant mechanism for industrial protocol connections at the transport layer. The concurrent connections establish multiple paths for redundancy from a data producer to a data consumer. Concurrent connections increase availability of the HA control and safety instrumented systems. More specifically, concurrent connections and architectural redundancies eliminate a single point of failure within the control system and further reduce safety connection timeouts during fault detection and/or recovery. Concurrent connections may be used to keep a HA system operational or to provide detection of a failure in a safety system. The industrial control network may be configured to function as a HA control system, as a safety control system, or with certain degrees of both HA and safety-related operation.

  • Patent number: 11922171
    Abstract: An information handling system includes a memory subsystem and a basic/input out system (BIOS). The BIOS performs multiple trainings of the memory subsystem, and each of the trainings is performed at a different temperature. The BIOS stores multiple derating values in a derating table of the BIOS, and each of the derating values corresponds to a respective tap value at a respective temperature. During a subsequent power on self test of the information handling system, the BIOS performs a first training of the memory subsystem, and stores a first set of tap values. During a runtime of the information handling system, a memory controller determines whether a temperature of the information handling system has changed by a predetermined amount. In response to the temperature changing by the predetermined amount, the memory controller utilizes the derating values in the derating table to automatically update the tap values.
