System and method for managing multi-core accesses to shared ports

A port is provided that utilized various techniques to manage contention for the same by controlling data that is written to and read from the port in multi-core assembly within a usable computing system. When the port is a sampling port, the assembly may include at least two cores, a plurality of buffers in operative communication with the at least one sampling ports, a non-blocking contention management unit comprising a plurality of pointers that collectively operate to manage contention of shared ports in a multi-core computing system. When the port is queuing port, the assembly may include buffers in communication with the queuing port and the buffers are configured to hold multiple messages in the queuing port. The assembly may manage contention of shared queuing ports in a multi-core computing system.

DYNAMIC L2P CACHE
20210406187 · 2021-12-30 ·

Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and machine readable mediums that dynamically adjust the size of an L2P cache in a memory device in response to observed operational conditions. The L2P cache may borrow memory space from a donor memory location, such as a read or write buffer. For example, if the system notices a high amount of read requests, the system may increase the size of the L2P cache at the expense of the write buffer (which may be decreased). Likewise, if the system notices a high amount of write requests, the system may increase the size of the L2P cache at the expense of the read buffer (which may be decreased).

Memory-based synchronization of distributed operations

A network device in a communication network includes a controller and processing circuitry. The controller is configured to manage execution of an operation whose execution depends on inputs from a group of one or more work-request initiators. The processing circuitry is configured to read one or more values, which are set by the work-request initiators in one or more memory locations that are accessible to the work-request initiators and to the network device, and to trigger execution of the operation in response to verifying that the one or more values read from the one or more memory locations indicate that the work-request initiators in the group have provided the respective inputs.

METHOD TO ORCHESTRATE A CONTAINER-BASED APPLICATION ON A TERMINAL DEVICE
20210406127 · 2021-12-30 ·

Provided is a method for orchestrating a container-based application that is executed on a terminal device, in which implementation information is received in an orchestration slave unit on the terminal device via a communication connection from an orchestration master unit, and the application is configured and/or controlled by the orchestration slave unit based on the implementation information, wherein the received implementation information is additionally saved persistently in a memory unit in the terminal device, and if the communication connection to the orchestration master unit is interrupted, the most recently saved implementation information is retrieved from the orchestration slave unit and the application is configured and/or controlled based on the most recently saved implementation information.

Technology For Moving Data Between Virtual Machines Without Copies

A processor comprises a core, a cache, and a ZCM manager in communication with the core and the cache. In response to an access request from a first software component, wherein the access request involves a memory address within a cache line, the ZCM manager is to (a) compare an OTAG associated with the memory address against a first ITAG for the first software component, (b) if the OTAG matches the first ITAG, complete the access request, and (c) if the OTAG does not match the first ITAG, abort the access request. Also, in response to a send request from the first software component, the ZCM manager is to change the OTAG associated with the memory address to match a second ITAG for a second software component. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
