What is AMD's AGESA?

I'm updating my BIOS and a new AGESA version is being included as part of it. I tried searching it on Google but the information about it isn't all that clear. Is AGESA simply there to help the BIOS recognize new CPUs?
 
"...The AMD Generic Encapsulated Software Architecture (AGESA) is a library of validated processor procedures designed to aid customers with quick adoption of AMD technology into their products. AMI?s drop-in support of AGESA allows minimal time-to-market for APTIO® customers to integrate AMD Processor Solutions into their products. AMI?s integration in APTIO® indicates that AGESA? code is versatile enough that it can be dropped in totally new architecture (UEFI) with minimal build changes...."

I think it has to do more with boot-up code and the P-state of the CPU.
