Abstract

Techniques are described herein that are capable of reducing latency of changing an operating state of a processor from a low-power state to a normal-power state. For example, providing a notification from a hardware system to the processor or receiving the notification at the processor, indicating that a transaction layer packet will be provided to the processor at a future time, may trigger the processor to change the operating state from the low-power state to the normal-power state. In another example, receipt of a transaction layer packet at the processor from a hardware system may trigger the processor to change the operating state from the low-power state to the normal-power state.
