摘要： Methods and systems for a low-cost high density compute environment with increased fail-over support through resource sharing and resources chaining. In one embodiment, one of a number of servers qualified to share resources is elected as a resource server. The shared resource can be firmware memory, hard-drive, co-processor, etc. The elected server responds to requests from individual requesters and provides the responses, such as firmware images. In one embodiment, all the blade servers on a rack use an image server for their firmware image so that these blade servers can automatically adopt a common personality across the entire rack. If the elected image server fails, a dynamic process elects an alternate image server. In one embodiment, among a set of qualified servers, only one is actively elected at a given time.
摘要翻译：低成本高密度计算环境的方法和系统，通过资源共享和资源链接增加故障转移支持。在一个实施例中，许多资源共享资源的服务器之一被选为资源服务器。共享资源可以是固件存储器，硬盘驱动器，协处理器等。所选服务器响应来自各个请求者的请求并提供响应，例如固件映像。在一个实施例中，机架上的所有刀片服务器使用图像服务器作为其固件图像，使得这些刀片服务器可以在整个机架上自动采用共同的个性。如果选择的映像服务器发生故障，则动态进程将选择备用映像服务器。在一个实施例中，在一组合格服务器中，在给定时间仅主动选择一个。

摘要： Methods and apparatus to facilitate fast restarts in processor systems are disclosed. An example processor restart method disclosed herein includes recording a log of pre-boot initialization actions, and replaying a portion of the log during subsequent processor restarts to shorten pre-boot initialization time. The example processor restart method disclosed herein may further include creating a log index table for easier referral to portions of the log, storing the log and the log index table in non-volatile memory, using the log index table to reorder the replaying of the log, and reordering the replay of the log to initialize the video graphics adapter earlier in a processor restart sequence.

摘要： A first partition of a processing system may use polling to communicate with a device. In addition, the first partition may provide an interface that allows a second partition of the processing system to communicate with the device without requiring the second partition to use polling. For example, the first partition may present the device to the second partition as an interrupt-driven device. In one embodiment, the first partition creates an interface that presents a universal serial bus (USB) peripheral device to the second partition as a legacy peripheral device. The second partition my therefore use the device without conducting polling, and may consume less energy than a partition that conducts polling. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要翻译：处理系统的第一分区可以使用轮询来与设备进行通信。此外，第一分区可以提供允许处理系统的第二分区与设备通信而不要求第二分区使用轮询的接口。例如，第一分区可以将设备呈现为第二分区作为中断驱动设备。在一个实施例中，第一分区创建将通用串行总线（USB）外围设备呈现为第二分区作为传统外围设备的接口。因此，我的第二个分区使用该设备而不进行轮询，并且可能比执行轮询的分区消耗更少的能量。描述和要求保护其他实施例。

摘要： When transitioning from sleep mode to active mode, a processing system loads first stage resume content and second stage resume content into a volatile memory of the processing system. The first stage resume content may contain contextual data for a first program that was in use before the processing system transitioned to sleep mode. The second stage resume content may contain contextual data for another program that was in use before the processing system transitioned to sleep mode. The processing system may provide a user interface for the first program before all of the second stage resume content has been loaded into the volatile memory. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
