Abstract
An information handling system collects system configuration information during a boot process, and builds a bifurcation table for root ports of the information handling system. The system also initiates a bifurcation of the root ports in parallel to loading an operating system of the data processing unit, and disables one of the root ports that is associated with the data processing unit. In response to determining that the operating system of the data processing unit has finished loading, the system enables the root port associated with the data processing unit. The bifurcation of the root port associated with the data processing unit is performed later when a peripheral component interconnect-express endpoint associated with the data processing unit is ready.
