Abstract: A mechanism where the locked pages are saved and restored by a hardware accelerator which is transparent to the OS. Prior to standby entry, the OS puts all DMA capable devices in the lowest-powered device low-power state after disabling bus mastering. The OS flushes all pageable memory to an NVM (in segments that are kept in self-refresh) and provides a list of pinned and locked pages in the DRAM to a power management controller (p-unit). The p-unit checks for all Bus Mastering DMA to be turned off and checks if a next OS timer wake event (TNTE) is greater than a threshold, to decide whether to enable or disable PASR or MPSM in Standby. If the conditions are met, the p-unit triggers a hardware accelerator to consolidate the pinned and locked pages in the DRAM to certain segment(s) of the DRAM during standby states, making it transparent to the OS.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to operate closed-lid portable computers are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a camera input analyzer to analyze image data captured by a world facing camera on a portable computer when a lid of the portable computer is in a closed position. The world facing camera is on a first side of the lid. The portable computer includes a primary display on a second side of the lid opposite the first side. The example apparatus further includes a secondary display controller to render content via a secondary display of the portable computer in response to the analysis of the image data. The secondary display controller is to render the content on the secondary display while the lid of the portable computer is in the closed position and the primary display is turned off.

Abstract: Embodiments are generally directed to sharing of environmental data for client device usage. An embodiment of a client device includes a processor; an environmental sensor to sense an environmental condition, an output of the sensor being a local environmental sensor value; and a wireless receiver to receive environmental data for a certain proximity area from a second client device according to an environmental data sharing protocol via a wireless network. The environmental data sharing protocol allows receipt of the environmental data without requiring pairing, bonding, or other relationship of client devices.

Abstract: In one example an electronic device comprises a power supply comprising an operating power rail and a standby power rail, a processing platform capable to switch between an operating power state and at least one low power state, a switch to selectively couple a power input of the processing platform to one of the operating power rail or the standby power output rail and logic, at least partially including hardware logic, to activate the switch based at least in part on the operating state of the processing platform. Other examples may be described.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a processor includes multiple cores and a power controller. The power controller may include a hardware duty cycle (HDC) logic to cause at least one logical processor of one of the cores to enter into a forced idle state even though the logical processor has a workload to execute. In addition, the HDC logic may cause the logical processor to exit the forced idle state prior to an end of an idle period if at least one other logical processor is prevented from entry into the forced idle state. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: With embodiments of the invention, a more robust solution is provided using a storage driver that may already be used for the platforms operating system. This is efficient because the storage driver typically already monitors storage drive access requests, and thus knows when traffic is outstanding (performance may be critical) or when it's not outstanding (and power may be saved).
