Methods, systems and apparatus to improve boot efficiency

A method to improve platform efficiency, comprising:

• retrieving, with an instruction by a processor, a firmware support package (FSP) reset (FSP-R) component from a platform memory;
• assigning, with an instruction by the processor, an entry to a firmware interface table (FIT) for the FSP-R component;
• assigning, with an instruction by the processor, respective entries to the FIT for auxiliary FSP components;
• and
• transferring, with an instruction by the processor, platform control to the FSP-R component to control execution of the auxiliary FSP components in response to a platform reset vector.

At least one tangible computer-readable medium comprising instructions which, when executed, cause a processor to at least:

• retrieve a firmware support package (FSP) reset (FSP-R) component from a platform memory;
• assign an entry to a firmware interface table (FIT) for the FSP-R component;
• assign respective entries to the FIT for auxiliary FSP components;
• and
• transfer platform control to the FSP-R component to control execution of the auxiliary FSP components in response to a platform reset vector.
