Thread and Core Power State Descriptions
Individual threads may request low power states. Core power states are automatically
resolved by the processor as shown in
Notes:
1.
If enabled, state will be C1E.
7.2.1.1
C0 State
This is the normal operating state in the processor.
7.2.1.2
C1/C1E State
C1/C1E is a low power state entered when all threads within a core execute a HLT or
MWAIT(C1E) instruction. The processor thread will transition to the C0 state upon
occurrence of an interrupt or an access to the monitored address if the state was
entered using the MWAIT instruction. RESET# will cause the processor to initialize
itself.
A System Management Interrupt (SMI) handler will return execution to either Normal
state or the C1 state. See the Intel
®
64 and IA-32 Architecture Software Developer's
Manuals, Volume III: System Programmer's Guide for more information.
While in C1/C1E state, the processor will process bus snoops and snoops from the
other threads.
Figure 7-1. Power State
C0
1. No transition to C0 is needed to service a snoop when in C1 or C1E.
,
.
2. Transitions back to C0 occur on an interrupt or on access to monitored address (if state was entered via MWAIT).
