摘要： An integrated circuit device, such as a processor initiates a transition to a first power management state. The device then receives a request to exit the first power management state and, in response exits the first power management state at the highest of a reference operating voltage, such as a minimum operating voltage, and a current voltage. For one aspect, an analog to digital converter may be used to determine the current voltage level. Further, for one aspect the first power management state may be a deeper sleep (C4) state, and the processor may quickly exit to a C2 state in response to a bus event such as a bus snoop.

摘要： A protected configuration space is implemented as at least one range of memory addresses that are mapped to logic external to system memory. The memory addresses access logic that performs control and status operations pertaining to a protected operating environment. Some of the addresses may access protected configuration registers. Commands having destination addresses within the protected configuration space may not be completed if the commands are not issued by a processor, or if the commands are not part of a group of one or more designated protected commands. A separately addressable non-protected configuration space may also be implemented, accessible by processors, non-processors and/or non-protected commands.

摘要： A system management interrupt (SMI) generation circuitry is provided to a universal serial bus (USB) complaint personal computer (PC) for generating a SMI whenever the USB controller attempts to generate a data-in interrupt received response to data in from a USB compatible keyboard/pointing device, and whenever an application attempts to perform a direct data-out to the AT keyboard controller. Additionally, a SMI handler is provided to service the SMIs, rerouting the data in to the appropriate input port of the AT keyboard controller, simulating receipt of data from an attached keyboard, thereby providing the data-in to the non-USB cognition application, and rerouting the data-out to the USB controller, thereby providing the data to the targeted USB keyboard/pointing device. As a result, compatibility is maintained between a USB compatible keyboard/pointing device, and non-USB cognition applications that perform direct data-in and data-out against the keyboard controllers.

摘要： A method and apparatus for controlling accesses to DMA control registers, specifically operating according to a Distributed Direct Memory Access (DDMA) protocol. When an access to a peripheral device ends in a Master Abort due to the failure of the peripheral device to respond to the DDMA Master component during a DDMA transaction, a System Management Interrupt (SMI#) is generated to the central processing unit. In the resulting execution of the System Management Mode code by the CPU, the cause of the peripheral component not responding (e.g., that the peripheral is in a low power mode, the connection between the DDMA master and the peripheral is interrupted, etc.) is determined. The CPU, executing SMM code, takes steps to correct the problem. For example, if the peripheral is powered down, the CPU will power it up so that the DDMA transaction can subsequently occur. Alternatively, when BIOS is used to power down a peripheral device, the DDMA Master component can determine the peripheral's power status prior to trying the DMA access. If the peripheral device is powered down, the DDMA Master component issues an SMI# to the CPU to cause the peripheral to be powered up prior to the DDMA transaction.
