  • Publication number: 20220129527
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to maintaining device security associated with reduced power modes. In some embodiments, a computing device receives a request to place the computing device in a reduced power mode in which a first memory of the computing device is powered off. Based on the request, the computing device offloads a memory page from the first memory to a second memory such that the offloading includes encrypting the memory page. Based on a request to resume from the reduced power mode, the computing device restores the memory page from the second memory to the first memory such that the restoring includes decrypting the encrypted memory page. After initiating the restoring, the computing device presents a user authentication prompt asking for a user credential.

  • Publication number: 20210341317
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a system on a chip (SOC) includes a component that remains powered when the remainder of the SOC is powered off. The component may include a sensor capture unit to capture data from various device sensors, and may filter the captured sensor data. Responsive to the filtering, the component may wake up the remainder of the SOC to permit the processing. The component may store programmable configuration data, matching the state at the time the SOC was most recently powered down, for the other components of the SOC, in order to reprogram them after wakeup. In some embodiments, the component may be configured to wake up the memory controller within the SOC and the path to the memory controller, in order to write the data to memory. The remainder of the SOC may remain powered down.

  • Patent number: 10831700
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for managing connections between multiple internal integrated circuits (ICs) of, for example, a high-speed internal device interface. Improved schemes for coordination of connection and disconnection events, and/or suspension and resumption of operation for a High-Speed Inter-Chip™ (HSIC) interface are disclosed. In one exemplary embodiment, a “device”-initiated and “host”-initiated connect/disconnect procedure is disclosed, that provides improved timing, synchronization, and power consumption.
