Abstract: A method of controlling a positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy device involves iteratively performing the actions of receiving at least one biosensor data from at least one biosensor system from a subject utilizing a PAP therapy device during a therapy session. The method receives air pressure reading from a pressure sensor of the PAP therapy device. The method converts the at least one biosensor data into sliding window time-series data. The method packages the sliding window time-series data and air pressure reading into a training set for a classification model to identify sleep quality biomarkers. The method generates an air pressure control through operation of a heuristic model configured by the sleep quality biomarkers. The method adjusts positive airway pressure generated by a blower motor. The method assigns a sleep quality score to the therapy session upon detecting the conclusion of the therapy session and retrains the heuristic model.

Abstract: A processing system includes one or more storage encryption circuits (SIECs) interconnected with one or more input/output (I/O) devices and a system memory. Each SIEC is configured to encrypt and decrypt data as the data passes between the I/O devices and the system memory. To this end, an SIEC includes slots each associated with respective memory addresses of the system memory. Each slot provides an aperture to the associated memory addresses such that the I/O devices use these apertures to indirectly target the associated memory addresses. As the data targeting the memory addresses associated with an aperture passes through an SIEC, the SIEC encrypts or decrypts the data using cryptographic keys stored on the SIEC.

Abstract: A/D bit storage, processing, and mode management techniques through use of a dense A/D bit representation are described. In one example, a memory management unit employs an A/D bit representation generation module to generate the dense A/D bit representation. In an implementation, the A/D bit representation is stored adjacent to existing page table structures of the multilevel page table hierarchy. In another example, memory management unit supports use of modes as part of A/D bit storage.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing a metadata tweak for channel encryption differentiation are disclosed. A memory controller retrieves a device-unique identifier (ID) from a memory device coupled to a given memory channel slot. The memory controller uses the device-unique ID to generate a tweak value used for encrypting data stored in the device. In one scenario, the device-unique ID is embedded in the address bits of the tweak process. In this way, the memory device can be migrated to a different memory channel since the data can be decrypted independently of the channel. This is possible since the device-unique ID used for the tweak operation is retrieved from the metadata stored locally on the memory device. In one implementation, the memory device is a persistent dual in-line memory module (DIMM). In some implementations, the link between memory controller and memory device is a compute express link (CXL) compliant link.

Abstract: A system-on-chip with runtime global push to persistence includes a data processor having a cache, an external memory interface, and a microsequencer. The external memory interface is coupled to the cache and is adapted to be coupled to an external memory. The cache provides data to the external memory interface for storage in the external memory. The microsequencer is coupled to the data processor. In response to a trigger signal, the microsequencer causes the cache to flush the data by sending the data to the external memory interface for transmission to the external memory.

An information handling system separately transmits to a remote console controller of the information handling system screen images without a cursor and cursor images.

Abstract: An information handling system authenticates a key manifest of a memory with a hash of a key associated with the key manifest. When the key manifest is authentic, the system authenticates a boot policy manifest with the hash of first public key associated with the boot policy manifest. When the boot policy manifest is authentic, the system validates a pre-boot block of the memory based upon the hash of the pre-boot block stored in the boot policy manifest and directs a processor to execute the pre-boot code when the pre-boot block is valid. A processor executes the pre-boot code to execute a reset vector and to determine if the boot block is valid with hash of the boot block, and executes the boot code when the boot block is valid.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a memory with a cache, and a processor to execute pre-operating system (pre-OS) code before the processor executes boot loader code. The pre-OS code sets up a Memory Type Range Register (MTRR) to define a first memory type for a memory region of the memory, sets up a page attribute table (PAT) with an entry to define a second memory type for the memory region, disables the PAT, and pass execution by the processor to the boot loader code. The first memory type specifies a first cacheability setting on the processor for data from the memory region, and the second memory type specifies a second cacheability setting on the processor for data from the memory region.

Abstract: A system and method for efficient dynamic scheduling of tasks. A scheduler within an operating system assigns software threads of program code to computation units. A computation unit may be a microprocessor, a processor core, or a hardware thread in a multi-threaded core. The scheduler receives measured data values from performance monitoring hardware within a processor as the one or more processors execute the software threads. The scheduler may be configured to reassign a first thread assigned to a first computation unit coupled to a first shared resource to a second computation unit coupled to a second shared resource. The scheduler may perform this dynamic reassignment in response to determining from the measured data values a first measured value corresponding to the utilization of the first shared resource exceeds a predetermined threshold and a second measured value corresponding to the utilization of the second shared resource does not exceed the predetermined threshold.
