Abstract: Apparatus, systems, and methods provide an interface between a plurality of hardware resources of a node and a power manager. The interface is configured to define one or more resource groups to expose to the power manager for power measurement and control, assign the plurality of hardware resources to the one or more resource groups, and provide a power allowance to each resource group.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for balancing power between discrete components, such as processing units (e.g., CPUs) and accelerators in a compute node or platform. Power consumption of the compute platform is monitored to detect for conditions under which a threshold (e.g., power supply capacity threshold) is exceeded. In response, the operating frequencies of a processing unit and/or other platform components such as accelerators, are adjusted to reduce the power consumption of the platform to return below the threshold. Power limit biasing hints (scaling weights) are provided to platform components, along with a power violation index, which are used to adjust the operating frequencies of the platform components. Optionally, a processing unit can calculate the power violation index and the scaling weights and directly control the frequencies of itself and platform components. Embodiments of multi-socket platforms are also provided.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided which comprises: a first circuitry to receive a measurement of a first temperature of a section of a computing device during a first loading condition of the computing device, and to receive a measurement of a second temperature of the section of the computing device during a second loading condition of the computing device; and a second circuitry to detect a potential fault in a cooling system to cool the computing device, based at least in part on the first temperature and the second temperature.

Abstract: Examples are disclosed for determining or using server transaction latency information. In some examples, a network input/output device coupled to a server may be capable of time stamping information related to ingress request and egress response packets for a transaction. For these examples, elements of the server may be capable of determining transaction latency values based on the time stamped information. The determined transaction latency values may be used to monitor or manage operating characteristics of the server to include an amount of power provided to the server or an ability of the server to support one or more virtual servers. Other examples are described and claimed.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods may provide for characterizing a plurality of similar components of a distributed computing system based on a maximum safe operation level associated with each component and storing characterization data in a database and allocating non-uniform power to each similar component based at least in part on the characterization data in the database to substantially equalize performance of the components.

Abstract: Mechanisms for exposing a protected memory address are provided. A processing device may store a data value at a protected memory address. The protected memory address may be a control register or a status register. The processing device may identify a mirror relationship between the protected memory address and an unprotected memory address and copy the data value from the protected memory address to the unprotected memory address. The unprotected memory address may be directly accessible via an external interface.
