ABSTRACT:
A mechanism for simulating the existence of hardware in a configuration and power management system is described. In one aspect, a simulator interfaces with the configuration and power management system to generate simulated events. In another aspect, accesses to hardware registers are simulated by registering the simulator with the configuration and power management system to handle accesses to a simulated hardware device. A component within the configuration and power management system may define the simulated hardware device such that accesses to the simulated hardware device occur with respect to a defined I/O space.
