APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR A USER CONFIGURABLE RELIABILITY CONTROL LOOP |
摘要 |
An apparatus and method for a user configurable reliability control loop. For example, one embodiment of a processor comprises: a reliability meter to track accumulated stress on components of the processor based on measured processor operating conditions; and a controller to receive stress rate limit information from a user or manufacturer and to responsively specify a set of N operating limits on the processor in accordance with the accumulated stress and the stress rate limit information; and performance selection logic to output one or more actual operating conditions for the processor based on the N operating limits specified by the controller. |
