TRACKING MISSED PERIODIC ACTIONS ACROSS STATE DOMAINS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- a memory controller;
a memory coupled to the memory controller; and
a power management subsystem that manages a state of the memory controller, the power management subsystem comprising a scheduler apparatus that includes;
a state interface to determine that the memory controller is in the state,a missed action detector to determine that a periodic action has been scheduled to occur in the memory controller while the memory controller is in the state, anda missed action tracker to document the periodic action as a missed event with respect to the memory controller.

Abstract
Systems and methods may provide for determining, in a first domain that manages a state of a second domain, that the second domain is in the state and determining, in the first domain, that a periodic action has been scheduled to occur in the second domain while the second domain is in the state. Additionally, the periodic action may be documented as a missed event with respect to the second domain. In one example, documenting the periodic action as a missed event includes incrementing a missed event counter.

19. At least one computer readable storage medium comprising a set of instructions, which when executed by a computing system, cause the computing system to:
-
determine, in a first domain that manages a state of a second domain, that the second domain is in the state; determine, in the first domain, that a periodic action has been scheduled to occur in the second domain while the second domain is in the state; and documenting the periodic action as a missed event with respect to the second domain. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
