    Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products are disclosed for enhanced system boot processing that is faster to launch an operating system, as certain devices such as user input hardware devices may not be initialized unless it is determined that a user-interruption to the boot process is likely. That is, although an interface for the devices is exposed, no initialization occurs unless a call to the interface occurs. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention is a technique to process an input/output (I/O) transaction. An emulated device driver in a guest partition interacts with a virtual machine (VM) manager in processing an input/output (I/O) transaction on behalf of an application via an operating system (OS). The I/O transaction is between the application and a device. A device emulator in a service partition communicatively coupled to the emulated device driver interacts with the VM manager in processing the I/O transaction on behalf of a device specific driver via the OS. The device specific driver interfaces to the device.

    Abstract: Technologies for system management interrupt (“SMI”) handling include a number of processor cores configured to enter a system management mode (“SMM”) in response to detecting an SMI. The first processor core to enter SMM and acquire a master thread lock sets an in-progress flag and executes a master SMI handler without waiting for other processor cores to enter SMM. Other processor cores execute a subordinate SMI handler. The master SMI handler may direct the subordinate SMI handlers to handle core-specific SMIs. The multi-core processor may set an SMI service pending flag in response to detecting the SMI, which is cleared by the processor core that acquires the master thread lock. A processor core entering SMM may immediately resume normal execution upon determining the in-progress flag is not set and the service pending flag is not set, to detect and mitigate spurious SMIs. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract translation: 用于系统管理中断(“SMI”)处理的技术包括配置为响应于检测到SMI而进入系统管理模式(“SMM”)的多个处理器核心。 进入SMM并获取主线程锁的第一个处理器核心设置一个进行中的标志,并执行主SMI处理程序,而不必等待其他处理器内核进入SMM。 其他处理器核心执行从属SMI处理程序。 主SMI处理程序可以指示下级SMI处理程序处理核心特定的SMI。 响应于检测到由获取主线程锁的处理器核心清除的SMI,多核处理器可以设置SMI服务挂起标志。 进入SMM的处理器核心在确定进行中标志未被设置并且未设置服务挂起标志时,可以立即恢复正常执行,以检测和减轻虚假SMI。 描述和要求保护其他实施例。
