摘要： A method and system for remote configuration of a computing device includes generating initialization code configured to initialize a memory and/or processor of the computing device dependent on initialization data. The initialization data is generated based on platform data, which is validate based on predetermined criteria. The platform data identifies platform-specific parameters and may be received over a network from a platform manufacturer. In response to validation of the platform data, the initialization data is generated and transmitted to the platform manufacturer for incorporation into the computing device. Upon a processor reset, the initialization code is configured to use the initialization data to perform initialization procedures to initialize the memory and/or processor of the computing device. The platform data may be updated periodically by an end-user of the computing device.

摘要： A method and system for handling a management interrupt, such as a system management interrupt (SMI) and/or a platform management interrupt (PMI), includes allocating two or more processor cores from a plurality of processor cores to form a group of management interrupt handling processor cores. Generated management interrupts are directed to this first group of processor cores and not to remaining processor cores, which forma second group. At least one of the processor cores in the first group handles the management interrupt without disrupting the current operation of the processor cores in the second group.

摘要： A method and apparatus is described herein for performing parallel memory migration, as well as execution of management tasks over a plurality of management window. Handlers are dispatched to multiple resources, such as cores or threads, to determine a proper memory migration handler. Each resource, during a management mode, executes a designated memory migration handler or an instance of a memory migration handler to perform a portion of a memory migration task in parallel. A task data structure is capable of supporting tracking of portions of memory migrated. In addition the task data structure is potentially also capable of tracking management tasks through plurality of management windows to support servicing of management tasks through multiple management windows.

摘要： In some embodiments, the invention involves reducing the time required for a platform to boot to its target application/operating-system using parallelization of firmware image content decompression and loading. An embodiment dispatches alternate processing agents as a means to intelligently assist in off-loading some of the initialization tasks so that the main processor may share the burden of boot tasks. In at least one embodiment, it is intended to build firmware images that facilitate parallelization, utilizing co-processing agents that can split these transactions across various processing agents. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要： A system and method for maintaining computer platform components in an optimal state. The method determines whether a platform includes an out-of-band processor, and if the platform includes an out-of-band processor, then the out-of-band processor is enabled to passively or proactively obtain firmware and/or option ROM (Read Only Memory) updates for add-in cards on the platform. Once the out-of-band processor has obtained the updates for the add-in cards on the platform, the out-of-band processor will place the updates in a platform mailbox and send an interrupt to the in-band processor indicating that firmware and/or option ROM updates are available in a platform mailbox. The in-band processor will launch the firmware and/or option ROM updates on the platform.
