System parameter trace and test coverage optimization in a computer system

摘要

In an example, a computer system includes: a hardware platform including a processor, system memory, and a plurality of input/output (IO) devices, the processor including a controller having a trace and optimize function controller (TOF); and a software platform including an operating system (OS) executing on the hardware platform; wherein the TOF is configured to communicate with the processor, the system memory, and the plurality of IO devices to obtain current settings thereof and to determine final settings for the processor, the system memory, and the plurality of IO devices based on the current settings; and wherein the controller is configured to control the processor, the system memory, and the plurality of IO devices based on the final settings.
