Abstract
In one or more embodiments, one or more systems, one or more methods, and/or one or more processes may determine that a platform reset signal from a processor of an information handling system has been asserted; may determine that a power conservation state from the processor was not asserted within an amount of time; may determine that an operating system restart occurred; may notify a hardware root of trust device to authenticate information handling system firmware; may assert a resume reset signal to the processor; may authenticate the information handling system firmware; may de-assert a power OK signal to the processor; may remove power from the processor; may determine that the resume reset signal to the processor is de-asserted and that the processor is out of the power conservation state; and may provide power to the processor.
