Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms to allocate functionality of a chiplet for access by one or more processor cores which are coupled to remote processor via a network switch. In an embodiment, a composite chip communicates with the switch via a Compute Express Link (CXL) link. The switch receives capability information which identifies both a chiplet of the composite chip, and a functionality which is available from a resource of that chiplet. Based on the capability information, the switch provides an inventory of chiplet resources. In response to an allocation request, the switch accesses the inventory to identify whether a suitable chiplet resource is available. Based on the access, the switch configures a chip to enable an allocation of a chiplet resource. In another embodiment, the chiplet resource is allocated at a sub-processor level of granularity, and disables access to the chiplet resource by one or more local processor cores.
