TECHNOLOGIES FOR MANAGING WORKLOADS IN PROCESSOR CORES

Abstract:

Techniques for managing workloads in processor cores are disclosed. High priority or mission critical workloads may be assigned to processor cores of a processor. When a power limited throttling condition is met, the processor may throttle some of its cores while not throttling the cores with the high priority or mission critical workloads assigned to it. Such an approach can ensure that mission critical workloads continue even upon throttling of the processor cores.
