Technologies 3 Technologies This chapter provides a high-level description of Intel technologies implemented in the processor. The implementation of the features may vary between the processor SKUs. Details on the different technologies of Intel processors and other relevant external notes are located at the Intel technology web site: http://www.intel.com/technology/ 3.
Technologies • More secure: The use of hardware transitions in the VMM strengthens the isolation of VMs and further prevents corruption of one VM from affecting others on the same system.
Technologies to translate the linear address), the resulting guest-physical address is executable under EPT only if the XS bit is set in every EPT pagingstructure entry used to translate the guest-physical address —The XU and XS bits are used only when translating linear addresses for guest code fetches.
Technologies • DMA remapping: for supporting independent address translations for Direct Memory Accesses (DMA) from devices. • Interrupt remapping: for supporting isolation and routing of interrupts from devices and external interrupt controllers to appropriate VMs. • Reliability: for recording and reporting to system software DMA and interrupt errors that may otherwise corrupt memory or impact VM isolation.
Technologies Intel VT-d functionality, often referred to as an Intel VT-d Engine, has typically been implemented at or near a PCI Express* host bridge component of a computer system. This might be in a chipset component or in the PCI Express functionality of a processor with integrated I/O. When one such VT-d engine receives a PCI Express transaction from a PCI Express bus, it uses the B/D/F number associated with the transaction to search for an Intel VT-d translation table.
Technologies • Intel VT-d superpage – support of Intel VT-d superpage (2 MB, 1 GB) for default Intel VT-d engine (that covers all devices except IGD) IGD Intel VT-d engine does not support superpage and BIOS should disable superpage in default Intel VT-d engine when iGfx is enabled. Note: Intel VT-d Technology may not be available on all SKUs. 3.2 Security Technologies 3.2.
Technologies For the above features, BIOS should test the associated capability bit before attempting to access any of the above registers. For more information, refer to the Intel® Trusted Execution Technology Measured Launched Environment Programming Guide Note: Intel TXT Technology may not be available on all SKUs. 3.2.
Technologies 3.2.5 Execute Disable Bit The Execute Disable Bit allows memory to be marked as non executable when combined with a supporting operating system. If code attempts to run in nonexecutable memory, the processor raises an error to the operating system. This feature can prevent some classes of viruses or worms that exploit buffer overrun vulnerabilities and can, thus, help improve the overall security of the system.
Technologies 3.2.9 Intel® Memory Protection Extensions (Intel® MPX) Intel® MPX provides hardware accelerated mechanism for memory testing (heap and stack) buffer boundaries in order to identify buffer overflow attacks. An Intel MPX enabled compiler inserts new instructions that tests memory boundaries prior to a buffer access. Other Intel MPX commands are used to modify a database of memory regions used by the boundary checker instructions.
Technologies 3.2.11 Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT) for Directed I/O (Intel® VT-d) Refer to Section 3.1.2 Intel VT-d for detail. 3.3 Power and Performance Technologies 3.3.1 Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel® HT Technology) The processor supports Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel® HT Technology) that allows an execution processor IA core to function as two logical processors.
Technologies active if the operating system is requesting the P0 state. If turbo frequencies are limited the cause is logged in IA_PERF_LIMIT_REASONS register. For more information on P-states and C-states, see Power Management. 3.3.3 Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions 2 (Intel® AVX2) Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions 2.0 (Intel® AVX2) is the latest expansion of the Intel instruction set.
Technologies The key enhancements provided by the x2APIC architecture over xAPIC are the following: • Support for two modes of operation to provide backward compatibility and extensibility for future platform innovations: — In xAPIC compatibility mode, APIC registers are accessed through memory mapped interface to a 4K-Byte page, identical to the xAPIC architecture. — In x2APIC mode, APIC registers are accessed through Model Specific Register (MSR) interfaces.
Technologies 3.3.6 Intel® Transactional Synchronization Extensions (Intel® TSX-NI) Intel® Transactional Synchronization Extensions (Intel® TSX-NI) provides a set of instruction set extensions that allow programmers to specify regions of code for transactional synchronization. Programmers can use these extensions to achieve the performance of fine-grain locking while actually programming using coarse-grain locks.

Power Management Table 4-6. 4.
Power Management 4.2.1.2 Intel® Speed Shift Technology Intel Speed Shift Technology is an energy efficient method of frequency control by the hardware rather than relying on OS control. OS is aware of available hardware P-states and request a desired P-state or it can let Hardware determine the P-state. The OS request is based on its workload requirements and awareness of processor capabilities.
Power Management 4.2.3 Requesting Low-Power Idle States The primary software interfaces for requesting low-power idle states are through the MWAIT instruction with sub-state hints and the HLT instruction (for C1 and C1E). However, software may make C-state requests using the legacy method of I/O reads from the ACPI-defined processor clock control registers, referred to as P_LVLx.
Power Management A System Management Interrupt (SMI) handler returns execution to either Normal state or the C1/C1E state. See the Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual for more information. While a processor IA core is in C1/C1E state, it processes bus snoops and snoops from other threads. For more information on C1E, see Section 4.2.5.
Power Management This feature is disabled by default. BIOS should enable it in the PMG_CST_CONFIG_CONTROL register. The auto-demotion policy is also configured by this register. 4.2.5 Package C-States The processor supports C0, C2, C3, C6, C7, C8 package states. The following is a summary of the general rules for package C-state entry.
Power Management Figure 4-4. Package C-State Entry and Exit Package C0 Package C2 Package C3 Package C6 Package C7 Package C8 Package C0 This is the normal operating state for the processor. The processor remains in the normal state when at least one of its processor IA cores is in the C0 or C1 state or when the platform has not granted permission to the processor to go into a low-power state. Individual processor IA cores may be in deeper power idle states while the package is in C0 state.
Power Management In package C3-state, the LLC shared cache is valid. Package C6 State A processor enters the package C6 low-power state when: • At least one processor IA core is in the C6 state. • The other processor IA cores are in a C6 or deeper power state, and the processor has been granted permission by the platform. • The platform has not granted a package C7 or deeper request but has allowed a C6 package state.
Power Management • Single or multiple displays • Native or non-native resolution • Panel Self Refresh (PSR) technology Note: Display resolution is not the only factor influencing the deepest Package C-state the processor can get into. Device latencies, interrupt response latencies, and core Cstates are among other factors that influence the final package C-state the processor can enter. The following table lists display resolutions and deepest available package C-State.
Power Management 4.3 Integrated Memory Controller (IMC) Power Management The main memory is power managed during normal operation and in low-power ACPI C-states. 4.3.1 Disabling Unused System Memory Outputs Any system memory (SM) interface signal that goes to a memory in which it is not connected to any actual memory devices (such as SODIMM connector is unpopulated, or is single-sided) is tri-stated. The benefits of disabling unused SM signals are: • Reduced power consumption.
Power Management better than APD, but less than DLL-off. Power consumption is defined by IDD2P. Exiting this mode is defined by tXP. The difference from APD mode is that when waking-up, all page-buffers are empty.) The LPDDR does not have a DLL. As a result, the power savings are as good as PPD/DDL-off but will have lower exit latency and higher performance. The CKE is determined per rank, whenever it is inactive. Each rank has an idle counter.
Power Management When entering the S3 – Suspend-to-RAM (STR) state or S0 conditional self-refresh, the processor IA core flushes pending cycles and then enters SDRAM ranks that are not used by the processor graphics into self-refresh. The CKE signals remain LOW so the SDRAM devices perform self-refresh. The target behavior is to enter self-refresh for package C3 or deeper power states as long as there are no memory requests to service. Table 4-8. Targeted Memory State Conditions State 4.3.2.
Power Management In C7 or deeper power state, the processor internally gates VCCIO for all non-critical state to reduce idle power. In S3 or C-state transitions, the DDR does not go through training mode and will restore the previous training information. 4.3.4 Power Training BIOS MRC performing Power Training steps to reduce DDR I/O power while keeping reasonable operational margins, still ensuring platform operation.
Power Management 4.6 Processor Graphics Power Management 4.6.1 Memory Power Savings Technologies 4.6.1.1 Intel® Rapid Memory Power Management (Intel® RMPM) Intel® Rapid Memory Power Management (Intel® RMPM) conditionally places memory into self-refresh when the processor is in package C3 or deeper power state to allow the system to remain in the deeper power states longer for memory not reserved for graphics memory.
Power Management 4.6.2.3 Smooth Brightness The Smooth Brightness feature is the ability to make fine grained changes to the screen brightness. All Windows* 10 system that support brightness control are required to support Smooth Brightness control and it should be supporting 101 levels of brightness control. Apart from the Graphics driver changes, there may be few System BIOS changes required to make this feature functional. 4.6.2.4 Intel® Display Power Saving Technology (Intel® DPST) 6.
Power Management 4.6.3 Processor Graphics Core Power Savings Technologies 4.6.3.1 Intel® Graphics Dynamic Frequency Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 is the ability of the processor IA cores and graphics (Graphics Dynamic Frequency) cores to opportunistically increase frequency and/or voltage above the guaranteed processor and graphics frequency for the given part.
Thermal Management 5 Thermal Management 5.1 Processor Thermal Management The thermal solution provides both component-level and system-level thermal management. To allow optimal operation and long-term reliability of Intel processorbased systems, the system/processor thermal solution should be designed so that the processor: • Bare Die Parts: Remains below the maximum junction temperature (TjMAX) specification at the maximum thermal design power (TDP).
Thermal Management • The processor may exceed the TDP for short durations to utilize any available thermal capacitance within the thermal solution. The duration and time of such operation can be limited by platform runtime configurable registers within the processor. • Graphics peak frequency operation is based on the assumption of only one of the graphics domains (GT/GTx) being active.
Thermal Management Note: Implementation of Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 only requires configuring PL1, PL1 Tau, and PL2. Note: PL3 and PL4 are disabled by default. Figure 5-1. Package Power Control 5.1.3.2 Platform Power Control The processor supports Psys (Platform Power) to enhance processor power management. The Psys signal needs to be sourced from a compatible charger circuit and routed to the IMVP8 (voltage regulator).
Thermal Management • The Psys signal and associated power limits / Tau are optional for the system designer and disabled by default. • The Psys data will not include power consumption for charging. 5.1.3.3 Turbo Time Parameter (Tau) Turbo Time Parameter (Tau) is a mathematical parameter (units of seconds) that controls the Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 algorithm. During a maximum power turbo event, the processor could sustain PL2 for a duration longer than the Turbo Time Parameter.
Thermal Management Table 5-1. Configurable TDP Modes (Sheet 2 of 2) Mode Description TDP-Up The SKU-specific processor IA core frequency where manufacturing confirms logical functionality within the set of operating condition limits specified for the SKU segment and Configurable TDP-Up configuration in Table 5-2, Table 5-3 and Table 5-5. The Configurable TDP-Up Frequency and corresponding TDP is higher than the processor IA core Base Frequency and SKU Segment Base TDP.
Thermal Management active as long as the package temperature remains at its specified limit. Therefore, the Adaptive Thermal Monitor will continue to reduce the package frequency and voltage until the TCC is de-activated. TjMAX is factory calibrated and is not user configurable. The default value is software visible in the TEMPERATURE_TARGET (0x1A2) MSR, bits [23:16]. The Adaptive Thermal Monitor does not require any additional hardware, software drivers, or interrupt handling routines.
Thermal Management 5.1.5.1.2 Frequency / Voltage Control Upon Adaptive Thermal Monitor activation, the processor attempts to dynamically reduce processor temperature by lowering the frequency and voltage operating point. The operating points are automatically calculated by the processor IA core itself and do not require the BIOS to program them as with previous generations of Intel processors.
Thermal Management 5.1.5.2 Digital Thermal Sensor Each processor has multiple on-die Digital Thermal Sensor (DTS) that detects the processor IA, GT and other areas of interest instantaneous temperature. Temperature values from the DTS can be retrieved through: • A software interface using processor Model Specific Register (MSR). • A processor hardware interface as described in Platform Environmental Control Interface (PECI).
Thermal Management 5.1.5.4 Bi-Directional PROCHOT# By default, the PROCHOT# signal is set to input only. When configured as an input or bi-directional signal, PROCHOT# can be used for thermally protecting other platform components should they overheat as well. When PROCHOT# is driven by an external device: • The package will immediately transition to the lowest P-State (Pn) supported by the processor IA cores and graphics cores.
Thermal Management 5.1.5.7 Low-Power States and PROCHOT# Behavior Depending on package power levels during package C-states, outbound PROCHOT# may de-assert while the processor is idle as power is removed from the signal. Upon wake up, if the processor is still hot, the PROCHOT# will re-assert. Although, typically package idle state residency should resolve any thermal issues.
Thermal Management 5.1.5.12 I/O Emulation-Based On-Demand Mode I/O emulation-based clock modulation provides legacy support for operating system software that initiates clock modulation through I/O writes to ACPI defined processor clock control registers on the chipset (PROC_CNT). Thermal throttling using this method will modulate all processor IA cores simultaneously. 5.1.

Note Definition 1 The TDP and Configurable TDP values are the average power dissipation in junction temperature operating condition limit, for the SKU Segment and Configuration, for which the processor is validated during manufacturing when executing an associated Intel-specified high-complexity workload at the processor IA core frequency corresponding to the configuration and SKU.

Thermal Management The DTS 1.1 implementation consists of two points: a ΨCA at TCONTROL and a ΨCA at DTS = -1. The ΨCA point at DTS = -1 defines the minimum ΨCA required at TDP considering the worst case system design TAMBIENT design point: ΨCA = (TCASE-MAX – TAMBIENT-TARGET) / TDP For example, for a 91 W TDP part, the TCASE maximum is 63.7 °C and at a worst case design point of 40 °C local ambient this will result in: ΨCA = (63.7 – 40) / 91 = 0.
