Abstract:
In one embodiment, the present invention includes a multicore processor having a power controller with logic to dynamically switch a power management policy from a power biased policy to a performance biased policy when a utilization of the processor exceeds a threshold level. Thus at low utilizations, reduced power consumption can be realized, while at higher utilizations, greater performance can be realized. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, the present invention includes a processor having a core and a power controller to control power management features of the processor. The power controller can receive an energy performance bias (EPB) value from the core and access a power-performance tuning table based on the value. Using information from the table, at least one setting of a power management feature can be updated. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
In an embodiment, a processor includes a plurality of cores each to independently execute instructions, and a power control unit coupled to the plurality of cores to control power consumption of the processor, where the power control unit includes a control logic to reduce a maximum operating frequency of the processor if a first number of forced performance state transitions occurs in a first time period or a second number of forced performance state transitions occurs in a second time period. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
