摘要: Methods, apparatus, and systems for power management of clustered computing platforms. Firmware provided on each platform is loaded operating system runtime availability. The firmware traps change events corresponding to a in state component or device associated with platform, such as processor peripheral device. In response the event, sends data arbiter using an out-of-band (OOB) communication network/channel. determines appropriate reallocation consumption allotments various platforms under its control based policy. Updated allocation information then sent selected via OOB Upon receipt updated allotments, registers and/or tables are effectuate one more components/devices platform.
