Multi-threaded low-level startup for system boot efficiency
Abstract:
Methods, computer-readable media and devices for executing a plurality of startup instructions are disclosed. For example, a method includes a first processor of a device accessing a plurality of startup instructions in response to a startup of the device. The first processor then executes a first startup instruction of the plurality of startup instructions to perform a first task and executes a second startup instruction of the plurality of startup instructions. The executing the second startup instruction causes the first processor to send a further instruction to a second processor of the device to perform a second task. At least a portion of the first task and at least a portion of the second task are performed at a same time.
