Abstract: Dynamically allocating cache in a multi-tenant infrastructure includes monitoring cache usage for multiple workloads in a multi-tenant processing infrastructure to determine a workload phase. A baseline performance level per workload is determined. The baseline performance level is dependent upon the workload phase. The workloads for each tenant are categorized based on cache utilization and the cache is allocated to each workload based on the baseline performance level, cache utilization, and system wide cache capacity.

Abstract: A memory is provided that comprises a bank of non-volatile memory cells configured into a plurality of banklets. Each banklet in the plurality of banklets can be enabled separately and independently of the other banklets in the bank of non-volatile memory cells. The memory further comprises peripheral banklet circuitry, coupled to the bank of a non-volatile memory array, that is configured to enable selected subsets of bit lines within a selected banklet within the plurality of banklets. Moreover, the memory comprises banklet select circuitry, coupled to the peripheral banklet circuitry, that is configured to select data associated with a selected banklet for reading out from the banklet or writing to the banklet.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided for statistical determination of power circuit connectivity based on signal detection in a circuit. Signal data from the circuit gathered and a determination is made as to whether a signal of interest is present in the gathered signal data from the circuit using a statistical analysis of the gathered signal data. The statistical analysis comprises using a mean current value and statistical deviation of the current value of the signal data over a predetermined period of time to compute a confidence range. The confidence range is compared to a first threshold and a second threshold. A determination is made that the signal is present in response to the confidence range being above the first threshold. A determination is made that the signal is not present in response to the confidence range being below the second threshold.

Abstract: A processor includes a processor core, a cache, and a tracker. The processor core is configured to execute persistent write instructions and receive notifications of completed persistent write instructions. The tracker is configured to track the completion state of a persistent write instruction.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided for dynamically changing power caps for a set of powered elements. Current being consumed by the set of powered elements P on a branch circuit is measured and available current on the branch circuit is determined. A new total power cap for a current time period t is identified based on a current total power cap and the measured current. A difference in total power caps (?TPC) is determined and, for each powered element p in the set of powered elements P at the current time period, a new power cap PC (p,t) is determined based on the previous power cap PC(p,t?1) and the difference of the total power caps to the set of powered elements P. A power cap of each powered element p is then dynamically set to the new power cap PC (p,t).
