Publication number: 20230236844Abstract: System settings for an information handling system are updated based on the operating system version of an information handling system that is installed or updated on the information handling system. An operating system template to the version of the operating system is retrieved and staged to a shared memory access/partition accessible by a basic input/output system (BIOS) of information handling system. A system policy enforcer of the BIOS accesses configuration settings from the staged corresponding operating system template and applies the accessed accessing configuration settings to the information handling system.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 21, 2022Publication date: July 27, 2023Applicant: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Karthik Sethu, Anusha Bhaskar, Harsha D.

Patent number: 11429166Abstract: An asset includes physical computing resources and a physical computing resources manager. The physical computing resources manager obtains a resource update for the asset; makes a determination that the resource update requires a reset of a portion of the physical computing resources; and, based on the determination, resets the portion of the physical computing resources during a low resource consumption reboot of the asset without resetting a second portion of the physical computing resources, the second portion of the physical computing resources are not reset as part of the low resource consumption reboot.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2020Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Anusha Bhaskar, Raveendra Madala, Krishnakumar Narasimhan, Santosh Gore, Muniswamy Setty

Publication number: 20220214965Abstract: A memory device defines portions of the storage space as memory mode memory or storage mode memory. Memory mode memory is represented as a portion of a system physical address space of an information handling system, and storage mode memory is represented as a storage device in the information handling system. An operating system instantiates a paged virtual memory architecture on the information handling system. The information handling system determines a page miss rate for pages stored in the first portion of the storage space, receives a request to increase a first size of the first portion of storage space in response to determining the page miss rate, and increases the first size of the first portion of storage space to a second size in response to the request.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 5, 2021Publication date: July 7, 2022Inventors: Parmeshwr Prasad, Anusha Bhaskar

Patent number: 11314521Abstract: An asset includes physical computing resources and a physical computing resources manager. The physical computing resources manager obtains a power management update for a physical computing resource of the physical computing resources of the asset; in response to obtaining the power management update: obtains, using an out-of-band manager, a power management descriptor for the asset; updates the power management descriptor based on the power management update; stages the power management descriptor at a location; and performs a low resource consumption reboot using the location to implement the power management update.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2020Date of Patent: April 26, 2022Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Anusha Bhaskar, Raveendra Madala, Krishnakumar Narasimhan, Santosh Gore

Patent number: 11269614Abstract: Systems and methods for transferring firmware updates using an in-band interface are described. In an embodiment, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to: receive a firmware update package having a payload; create a namespace in a persistent memory; copy the payload to a segment of the persistent memory associated with the namespace; and write, to an Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) variable, an Emulator Device Path (EDP) pointing to the payload.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2020Date of Patent: March 8, 2022Assignee: Dell Products, L.P.Inventors: Krishnakumar Narasimhan, Anusha Bhaskar, Muniswamy Setty K S, Parmeshwr Prasad

Patent number: 11263023Abstract: An information handling system includes a basic input/output system (BIOS) that performs a firmware boot operation. During the firmware boot operation, the BIOS determines whether a driver pack management controller setting is enabled within a baseboard management controller of the information handling system. In response to the driver pack management controller setting being enabled, the BIOS copies a binary utility from the baseboard management controller to a system memory, and creates an operating system specific platform binary table to point to the binary utility on the baseboard management controller. In response to the operating system being initialized, a processor invokes the binary utility, mounts a memory partition of the baseboard management controller as a virtual drive of the operating system, and executes the operating system specific binary stage under a fixed globally unique identifier to install a driver pack.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2020Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Anusha Bhaskar, Praveen S. Lalgoudar, Santosh Gore, Muniswamy Setty K S

Patent number: 10558453Abstract: A serial attached small computer system interface system improves shared device firmware version consistency. The system includes servers connected to one of a plurality of controllers, and an expander connected to each of the controllers. A shared device connected to the expander receives a command from a server to be executed at the shared device, and transmits a first broadcast asynchronous event to the expander. The shared device is a serial attached small computer system interface target, and the first broadcast asynchronous event identifies a configuration change in the serial attached small computer system interface target. The expander, in response to receiving the first broadcast asynchronous event, transmits a second broadcast asynchronous event to the controllers.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2018Date of Patent: February 11, 2020Assignee: Dell Products, LPInventors: Anusha Bhaskar, Santosh Hanamant Gore, Chandrashekar Nelogal, Raveendra Babu Madala, Muniswamy Setty K S, Sujit Dagadu Jadhav
