Interface and hot reset path for memory device firmware upgrade

Systems, devices, and methods may provide a technique. The technique exchanges activation information between system firmware and an operating system (OS), wherein the activation information includes one or more of state information, activation state information, function information, activation time information, or silence time information. The technique also performs a runtime upgrade on the device firmware based on the activation information, where the runtime upgrade bypasses a restart of the computing system. 系统、设备和方法可以提供一种技术，该技术在系统固件与操作系统(OS)之间交换激活信息，其中激活信息包括状态信息、激活状态信息、功能信息、激活时间信息或静默时间信息中的一者或多者。该技术还基于激活信息来对设备固件进行运行时升级，其中，运行时升级绕过计算系统的重启。
