Abstract: A host system initiates an abort of a command that has been placed into a submission queue (SQ) of the host system. The host system identifies at least one of a first outcome and a second outcome. When the first outcome indicates that the command is not completed and the second outcome indicates that the SQ entry has been fetched from the SQ, the host system sends an abort request to a storage device, and issues a cleanup request to direct the host controller to reclaim host hardware resources allocated to the command. The host system adds a completion queue (CQ) entry to a CQ and sets an overall command status (OCS) value of the CQ entry based on at least one of the first outcome and the second outcome.

Abstract: A semiconductor device including a substrate, a low-k dielectric layer, a cap layer, and a conductive layer is provided. The low-k dielectric layer is disposed over the substrate. The cap layer is disposed on the low-k dielectric layer, wherein a carbon atom content of the cap layer is greater than a carbon atom content of the low-k dielectric layer. The conductive layer is disposed in the cap layer and the low-k dielectric layer.

Abstract: One of a pair of alternate key planes of a virtual keyboard is presented. Each key plane includes a partial set of phonetic symbols from a phonetic alphabet. A first key plane includes a set of initial phonetic symbols. A second key plane includes a set of final phonetic symbols and a set of tone marks. The virtual keyboard automatically switches between the first key plane and the second key plane upon receiving a predetermined set of user input triggers. A sequence of Zhuyin phonetic symbol input is received from a user interface, where the sequence of Zhuyin phonetic symbols represents phonetic spellings of a plurality of Chinese characters. User input to select one of a list of Chinese character combinations is received. The selected Chinese character combination is entered as text input in the user interface.
