Abstract
Disclosed methods may push a capsule update including a best known configuration-compute express link (BKC-CXL) firmware update to a boot time memory area. Following a platform reboot, BKC-CXL firmware update operations are performed. The update operations include mapping a BKC-CXL runtime memory area to a non-volatile BKC store, identifying current CXL attributes from the runtime memory area, extracting the firmware update, creating one or more BKC-CXL objects from the firmware update to enable dynamic configuration of CXL parameters, comparing current CXL attributes with stored CXL attributes to identify CXL attribute changes, and saving information indicative of the CXL attribute changes back to the non-volatile BKC store. Following a subsequent reboot, regular boot path operations are performed, including identifying existing CXL attributes indicated in the non-volatile BKC store and responsive to detecting a flag set to apply vendor pushed dynamic CXL attributes, obtaining BKC-CXL recommendations from an ML inference engine.
