1. A method of context swapping in a multitasking operating system for a processor, comprising: providing a plurality of context blocks for storing context information for a plurality of processes; providing an
For example, instead of using raw pointers, developers may access memory buffers through a <BufferHandle>. Whenever the application uses the <BufferHandle> to access an allocation, previously evicted pages may be restored to a (potentially different) virtual address. This may guarantee that the al...
Theswap(int*a, int*b)function utilizes two pointers, which store the memory addresses of two integers. Thus, it has the capability to [1] reserve a duplicate of the initial integer, [2] replicate the second integer in the memory location previously occupied by the first integer, and [3]...
determining that all messages referencing the buffer have been queued, allocating a new buffer and performing a swap of the oldest in-use buffer and the new buffer, performing a free message block operation and updating a message block by updating a set of read and write pointers to point to...
the storage controller108places the entries corresponding to the available data extents into the mapping table for the first storage tier202in place of the entries that previously corresponding to the write data that has now been migrated. As a result, the pointers in the tables corresponding to ...
Table, the more natural way to swap references is to overwrite the entry pointers in a coordinated fashion. Several distributed systems have examined ways to dynamically configure the location of components, requiring much of the same support. One such distributed system is disclosed in “A ...
21.The non-transitory computer readable media of claim 20, wherein each of the blocks of the predetermined size in the low latency memory are linked via a first plurality of pointers, and wherein each of the blocks of the predetermined size in the high latency memory are linked via a seco...
element. The completion queue element contains sufficient information to determine the queue pair and specific work queue element that completed. A completion queue context is a block of information that contains pointers to, length, and other information needed to manage the individual completion ...
