Abstract
Systems and methods may provide for assuming control over a processor in response to an operating system (OS) request to transition the processor into a sleeping state and transitioning the processor into an intermediate state that has a shorter wake latency than the sleeping state. Additionally, the processor may be maintained in the intermediate state until a wake event is detected. In one example, one or more power lowering operations may be reversed in response to the wake event.
