Platform agnostic power management

摘要

In an embodiment, a processor includes at least one functional block and a central power controller. The at least one functional block may include at least one block component and block power logic. The block power logic may be to: receive a first request to initiate a first reduced power mode in the at least one functional block, and in response to the first request, send a notification signal to a central power controller. The central power controller may be to, in response to the notification signal: store a first state of the at least one functional block, and initiate the first reduced power mode in the at least one functional block. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
