Abstract: An interrupt is identified from an input/output (I/O) device and an address of a particular cache line is identified associated with the interrupt. The cache line corresponds to a destination of the interrupt and represents one or more attributes of the interrupt. A request is sent to a coherency agent to acquire ownership of the particular cache line and a request is sent to perform a read-modify-write (RMW) operation on the cache line based on the interrupt.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a processor includes at least one core to initiate a hot reset, and a peripheral device that is coupled to a root complex fabric via through the root port via an peripheral component interconnect express to on-chip system fabric (PCIE to OSF) bridge. The processor also includes a power control unit that includes reset logic to decouple the peripheral device from the root complex fabric responsive to initiation of the hot reset. After the peripheral device is decoupled from the root complex fabric, the reset logic is to assert a reset of the peripheral device while a first core of the at least one core is in operation. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: In an embodiment, an apparatus comprises: a semiconductor die including but not limited to: at least one core to execute instructions; an agent to perform at least one function; a root complex including a first root port to interface to a first device to be coupled to the apparatus via a first interconnect and a second root port to interface to the agent via a bridge logic; and the bridge logic to interface the second root port to the agent, convert a first transaction from the first root port having a first format to a second format and communicate the first transaction having the second format to the agent. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
