Abstract: Duplicating memory content with chipset attached memory is described. In accordance with the described techniques, contents of a system memory are duplicated on a chipset attached memory over a chipset link. Memory requests are serviced using the contents of the system memory and the contents on the chipset attached memory. Servicing the memory requests includes servicing a first portion of a read request using the contents of the system memory and a second, remaining portion of the read request using the contents on the chipset attached memory. Servicing the memory requests further includes communicating a write request to the system memory and to the chipset attached memory.

Abstract: User configurable hardware settings for overclocking is described. In accordance with the described techniques, user input to adjust hardware settings for operating a processing unit in an overclocking mode is received. The user input, for example, adjusts at least one of a voltage droop threshold or a frequency adjustment of the clock rate. A voltage droop is detected while operating the processing unit in the overclocking mode. Responsive to detecting the voltage droop, a clock rate of the processing unit is adjusted based at least in part on the adjusted hardware settings.

Abstract: System memory training with chipset attached memory is described. In accordance with the described techniques, a request is received to train a system memory of a device. Responsive to the request, contents of the system memory are transferred to a chipset attached memory. The device is operated using the contents from the chipset attached memory. While the device is being operated using the contents from the chipset attached memory, the system memory is dynamically trained. After the training is complete, the contents are transferred back from the chipset attached memory to the trained system memory.

Abstract: Profile switching for memory overclocking is described. In accordance with the described techniques, a memory is operated according to a first memory profile. During operation of the memory according to the first memory profile, a request is received to operate the memory according to a second memory profile. Responsive to the request, operation of the memory is switched to operate according to the second memory profile without rebooting. In one or more implementations, at least one of the first memory profile or the second memory profile comprises an overclocking memory profile that configures the memory to operate in an overclocking mode. In one or more implementations, the memory is trained to operate according to the overclocking memory profile prior to operating the memory according to the first memory profile.

Abstract: Induced signal marginality for random number generation is described. In accordance with the described techniques, a pseudorandom number is transmitted across an interface while the interface is operated with settings configured to cause instability in the interface. A random number is received as an output of the interface. The settings configured to cause instability in the interface include overclocked settings of interface operating parameters.

Abstract: Physical adjustment to system memory with chipset attached memory is described. In accordance with the described techniques, an indication for making one or more physical adjustments to system memory of a device is received. Contents of the system memory are transferred via a chipset link to a chipset attached memory. The device is operated using the contents from the chipset attached memory while the one or more physical adjustments are made to adjust the system memory. After the one or more physical adjustments, the contents are transferred back from the chipset attached memory to the adjusted system memory via the chipset link.

Abstract: Real time workload-based system adjustment is described. In accordance with the described techniques, a processor and a memory are operated according to first settings associated with a first workload. A second workload configured to utilize the processor and the memory is detected. The second workload is associated with second settings. Responsive to detecting the second workload, operation of the processor and the memory are adjusted to operate according to the second settings without rebooting.

Abstract: Core activation and deactivation for a multi-core processor is described. In accordance with the described techniques, a processor having multiple cores operates using a first core configuration. A request to switch from the first core configuration to a second core configuration is received. Responsive to the request, a switch from the first core configuration to the second core configuration occurs by adjusting a number of active cores of the processor without rebooting.

Abstract: Package lids with carveouts configured for processor connection and alignment are described. Lid carveouts are configured to align and mechanically secure a cooling device to the package lid by receiving protrusions of the cooling device. Because the lid carveouts ensure precise alignment and orientation of a cooling device relative to a package lid, the lid design enables targeted cooling of discrete portions of the lid. Lid carveouts are further configured to expose one or more connectors disposed on a surface that supports package internal components. When contacted by corresponding connectors of a cooling device, the lid carveouts enable direct connections between the package and the attached cooling device. By creating a direct connection between package components and an attached cooling device, the lid carveouts enable a high-speed connection for proactive and on-demand cooling actuation.

Abstract: Task scheduling based on component margins is described. In accordance with the described techniques, a scheduler of an operating system accesses a margin table when a request to perform tasks is received. The scheduler schedules tasks on various components of a system based on margins of those components. When a request to perform a task is received, for example, the scheduler accesses the margin table and selects a component to perform the task based on the margin information included in the margin table as well as based on the task, such as whether the task benefits more from being performed fast or being performed accurately. The scheduler then schedules the task using the selected component.
