Abstract
Example implementations relate to operational verification. In an example, operational verification includes a processor, a shared non-volatile memory storing updated system, and an embedded controller (EC) to operationally verify the updated system instructions based on comparison of a length of time associated with a BIOS boot of the computing system using the updated system instructions to a boot time threshold.
Claims15
A computing system, comprising:
- a processor;
- a shared non-volatile memory storing updated system instructions;
- and
- an embedded controller (EC) to operationally verify the updated system instructions based on comparison of a length of time associated with a basic input/out system (BIOS) boot of the computing system using the updated system instructions to a boot time threshold.
1 more element
A non-transitory machine-readable medium including instructions executable to:
- receive updated basic input/out system (BIOS) instructions at a shared non-volatile memory of a computing system;
- initiate a BIOS boot of the computing system using the updated BIOS instructions;
- and
- operationally verify the updated BIOS instructions when an amount of time associated with the BIOS boot of the computing system using the updated BIOS instructions is less than a boot time threshold.
1 more element
A method, comprising:
- initiating a basic input/out system (BIOS) boot of a computing system using updated BIOS instructions stored in a shared non-volatile memory of the computing system;
- comparing a length of time of the BIOS boot to a boot time threshold;
- and
- operationally verify the updated BIOS instructions when the length of time of the BIOS boot is less than the boot time threshold.
