Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for management of processor thread used in support of workspaces operating on an IHS (Information Handling System), where the workspaces operate in isolation from the operating system of the IHS. A remote workspace orchestration service manages deployment of workspaces on the IHS. The workspaces are instantiated and operate according to a workspace definition provided by the workspace orchestration service. A remote access controller of the IHS determine one or more processor threads of the IHS used in support of the workspaces. The remote access controller monitors memory utilization by the processor threads used in support of the workspaces in order to detect memory thrashing resulting from the operation of a particular workspace. Based on the monitored memory utilization, the processor threads used in support of the workspaces are modified in order to reduce memory thrashing during the operation of the workspaces.

Abstract: A computer system with a first messaging application communicates a message to another computer system with a second messaging application via a coupling facility storage device. If the message does not exceed a predetermined threshold, the message is put onto the queue in the coupling facility. If the message does exceed a predetermined threshold, the message is put onto a log associated with the first messaging application and readable by the second messaging application. A pointer to the message is put onto the queue in the coupling facility. The pointer can be used to access the message in the log.

Abstract: A task in an application node is managed. For instance, based on a type of a predetermined task that is to be executed on a data object in the application node, an address range of a group of objects on which the predetermined task is to be executed is determined in the data object. The predetermined task is executed on the group of objects in an order of addresses of the group of objects. A progress indicator is created for indicating an address of an object that is currently being processed in the group of objects. The predetermined task is managed based on the progress indicator. Thus, an address of an object that is currently being processed may be indicated based on the progress indicator, so that the predetermined task may be managed more easily and effectively based on the progress indicator in subsequent operations.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a kernel of an operating system receives a request to store a message in a message buffer, which includes a plurality of chunks. Each chunk of the message buffer is associated with a message-occupancy indicator. The kernel determines a start and end position of the message when stored in the message buffer. The kernel determines, based on the start and end positions, whether the message, when stored, will occupy more than one chunk. Responsive to determining that the message will occupy more than one chunk, the kernel determines each chunk that will contain the message when stored. If a message occupancy-indicator associated with each chunk indicates that at least each chunk after a first chunk associated with the start position is unoccupied, the kernel stores the message in the message buffer and updates the message-occupancy indicator for each chunk containing the stored message.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method that includes monitoring execution of program code by first and second processor components. A computing system detects that a trigger condition is satisfied by: i) identifying an operand in a portion of the program code; or ii) determining that a current time of a clock of the computing system indicates a predefined time value. The operand and the predefined time value are used to initiate trace events. When the trigger condition is satisfied the system initiates trace events that generate trace data identifying respective hardware events occurring across the computing system. The system uses the trace data to generate a correlated set of trace data. The correlated trace data indicates a time ordered sequence of the respective hardware events. The system uses the correlated set of trace data to analyze performance of the executing program code.

Abstract: At a cloud platform, a class of feed is received for an external feed corresponding to an information source, as are an instruction corresponding to a create operation for the external feed, and a dictionary input corresponding to parameters expected by the information source. The external feed produces a corresponding class of events. At the cloud platform, a handler is selected based on the received class of feed and the received create operation; the input dictionary is transferred to the handler; and the handler generates a unique destination to receive events for the class of events. The handler on the cloud platform generates a unique request to the information source to generate events of the class of feed to the unique destination and sends the request to the information source. Events generated from the information source responsive to the unique request are received at the unique destination.
