20170364377 · 2017-12-21 ·

Application code is obtained at a compiler toolchain, which accesses a package manager that tracks dependencies for a set of software components including application-level components represented as application-level packages, hypervisor interface-level components represented as hypervisor interface-level packages, and hypervisor-level components represented as hypervisor-level packages. A dependency solver is employed to select a sub-set of the set of packages that satisfy the dependencies. The sub-set of packages is assembled into an executable bundle, including a statically-linked binary built entirely from the sub-set of the selected packages that contains no external dependencies except calls to an interface defined entirely by the hypervisor interface-level packages, and a specialized monitor built entirely from the sub-set of the selected packages that runs on a standard operating system, loads and executes the statically-linked binary, and interacts with the statically-linked binary only through the interface defined by the hypervisor interface-level packages.

Multiplatform microservice connection techniques

Inter-microservice communications are managed through in-memory connection routing. A sending microservice writes a message over a port associated with the connection. The message is routed directly to one or more receiving microservices associated with the connection over their ports associated with the connection. The message may be converted to a different format or multiple different formats through plugins processed when the message is received over the sending microservice's port and before the converting messages are routed over the receiving microservices' ports. The inter-microservice communications are hardware and platform independent or agnostic, such that the microservices associated with the connection can be processed on different hardware and different platforms from one another.

Compressing micro-operations in scheduler entries in a processor

An electronic device includes a processor having a micro-operation queue, multiple scheduler entries, and scheduler compression logic. When a pair of micro-operations in the micro-operation queue is compressible in accordance with one or more compressibility rules, the scheduler compression logic acquires the pair of micro-operations from the micro-operation queue and stores information from both micro-operations of the pair of micro-operations into different portions in a single scheduler entry. In this way, the scheduler compression logic compresses the pair of micro-operations into the single scheduler entry.
