Abstract: An initialization data memory space allocation system includes a memory system having a memory space that includes an initialization data bucket that reserves a contiguous subset of the memory space for initialization data. Each initialization engine that is coupled to the memory system is configured during initialization operations to allocate, for that initialization engine, a portion of the contiguous subset of the memory space reserved by the initialization data bucket, and then store initialization data in that portion of the contiguous subset of the memory space reserved by the initialization data bucket. A runtime engine that is coupled to the memory system is configured, during runtime operations, to claim the contiguous subset of the memory space reserved for initialization data by the initialization data bucket for runtime data, and store runtime data in at least a portion of the contiguous subset of the memory space.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method for managing a smart network interface controller includes: sending a request for estimated resource requirements associated with the smart network interface controller to a baseboard management controller of the information handling system, the estimated resource requirements indicating estimated system resources likely to be required by emulated devices of the smart network interface controller; receiving the estimated resource requirements from the baseboard management controller; initializing the estimated system resources based on the estimated resource requirements; enumerating system resources for one or more additional devices of the information handling system; determining that the smart network interface controller is in a ready state; identifying actual resource requirements associated with the smart network interface controller indicating actual system resources required by the emulated devices of the smart network interface controller; and enumerating the actual system
