In one embodiment, handling the event may include substituting for the application by the secondary processor by executing the rule set, and controlling a peripheral hardware device that is peripheral to the primary processor according to the rule set. Handling an event may also include waking the primary processor from sleep mode by the secondary processor and passing control back to the primary processor. | 07-02-2015 |
20150277545 | Apparatus and Method for Awakening a Primary Processor Out of Sleep Mode - One disclosed method includes communicating with a kernel running on a primary processor, by a second processor, in response to detection of a state change; performing a hardware operation, in response to the state change, using the kernel without waking user space on the primary processor, where the user space remains suspended; and resuming a sleep mode of the primary processor by suspending the kernel after the hardware operation is completed. One example of a hardware operation is modification of display data on a touchscreen display. The method of operation may perform the hardware operation using the kernel without waking hardware drivers other than a hardware driver related to the hardware operation. | 10-01-2015 |
