  • P-state feedback to operating system with hardware coordination
    Patent number: 7360103
    Abstract: A mechanism for P-state feedback to operating system (OS) with hardware coordination is described herein. In one embodiment, an example of a process includes, but is not limited to, receiving data from a processor representing an average performance over a previous period of time, and determining a performance state (P-state) for a next period of time based in part on the data representing the average performance over the previous period of time. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 21, 2004
    Date of Patent: April 15, 2008
    Assignee: Intel Corporation
    Inventors: Bernard J. Lint, Alon Naveh, Shivnandan D. Kaushik, Jeffrey R. Wilcox, Lance E. Hacking, Ping Sager, Kushagra Vaid, Todd A. Dutton
  • Determining target operating frequencies for a multiprocessor system
    Patent number: 7146514
    Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention, a method includes determining utilization values for a plurality of processors having power utilization dependencies, and identifying a target frequency for the plurality of processors based on the utilization values.

    Abstract: A mechanism for P-state feedback to operating system (OS) with hardware coordination is described herein. In one embodiment, an example of a process includes, but is not limited to, receiving data from a processor representing an average performance over a pervious period of time, and determining a performance state (P-state) for a next period of time based in part on the data representing the average performance over the previous period of time. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.
