Method, system and apparatus for main memory access subsystem usage to different partitions in a socket with sub-socket partitioning

摘要

Embodiments enable sub-socket partitioning that facilitates access among a plurality of partitions to a shared resource. A round robin arbitration policy is to allow each partition, within a socket, that may utilize a different operating system, access to the shared resource based at least in part on whether an assigned bandwidth parameter for each partition is consumed. Embodiments may further include support for virtual channels.
