  • Publication number: 20240346152
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system for limiting the rate at which system management interrupts can suspend normal execution of a central processing unit (CPU) by switching the operating mode of the CPU from one of the real mode or the protected mode to the system management mode. The rate limits imposed by the system provides a protective layer against cyberattacks (e.g., a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack) from malicious actors and ensures the CPU can be more efficient regarding the execution of workloads (e.g., processing threads).

  • Patent number: 11469956
    Abstract: Techniques to facilitate the provision of server-management microservices for baseboard management controllers from a storehouse of such microservices are described herein. A technique described herein includes a server-management microservice storehouse obtaining a request for a server-management microservice for a baseboard management controller (BMC) of a server of a communications network. Further, the storehouse delivers the microservice to the BMC over the communication network. The server-management microservice is a modularized application that interacts with the operating system of the BMC while the microservice executes on the BMC, and the server-management microservice cause management of operations of the server or monitoring of the status of the server.

  • Patent number: 11144326
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media are provided for parallel initiating of devices in a system. The method includes generating an affinity table that stores option ROM execution data including first data associated with a first device and second data associated with a second device and triggering, based on the affinity table, a first initialization of the first device and executing a first option ROM code during a pre-boot phase and triggering, based on the affinity table, a second initialization of the second device and executing a second option ROM code during the pre-boot phase. Triggering the first initialization of the first device and triggering the second initialization of the second device during the pre-boot phase is performed such that at least a part of the first initialization of the first device and at least part of the second initialization of the second device are executed in parallel.
