  • Patent number: 11954528
    Abstract: Technologies for dynamically sharing remote resources include a computing node that sends a resource request for remote resources to a remote computing node in response to a determination that additional resources are required by the computing node. The computing node configures a mapping of a local address space of the computing node to the remote resources of the remote computing node in response to sending the resource request. In response to generating an access to the local address, the computing node identifies the remote computing node based on the local address with the mapping of the local address space to the remote resources of the remote computing node and performs a resource access operation with the remote computing node over a network fabric. The remote computing node may be identified with system address decoders of a caching agent and a host fabric interface. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 11550721
    Abstract: Method and apparatus implementing smart store operations with conditional ownership requests. One aspect includes a method implemented in a multi-core processor, the method comprises: receiving a conditional read for ownership (CondRFO) from a requester in response to an execution of an instruction to modify a target cache line (CL) with a new value, the CondRFO identifying the target CL and the new value; determining from a local cache a local CL corresponding to the target CL; determining a local value from the local CL; comparing the local value with the new value; setting a coherency state of the local CL to (S)hared when the local value is same as the new value; setting the coherency state of the local CL to (I)nvalid when the local value is different than the new value; and sending a response and a copy of the local CL to the requester. Other embodiments include an apparatus configured to perform the actions of the methods.

  • Patent number: 11044210
    Abstract: Technologies for performing switch-based collective operations in a fabric architecture include a network switch communicatively coupled to a plurality of computing nodes. The network switch is configured to identify sub-operations of a collective operation of a collective operation request received from one of the computing nodes and identify a plurality of operands for each of the sub-operations. The network switch is additionally configured to request a value for each of the operands from a corresponding target computing node at which the respective value is stored, determine a result of the collective operation as a function of the requested operand values, and transmit the result to the requesting computing node. Other embodiments are described herein.

  • Patent number: 10229269
    Abstract: An anti-malware application detects and remediates ransomware. The anti-malware application monitors processes executing on a computing device and detects that a process is opening a file for editing. A portion of the original file is saved prior to being edited by the process. Once the edited file is saved, the anti-malware application compares a portion of the edited file to the portion of the original file to determine if the edited file is encrypted. The anti-malware application may determine the process is associated with ransomware based on whether the edited file is encrypted.

  • Patent number: 9886318
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses relating to translating a logical thread identification to a physical thread identification. A processor may include a plurality of cores that include a buffer, and a thread mapping hardware unit to: return a physical thread identification in response to a logical thread identification sent to a buffer of a first core when the buffer includes a logical to physical thread mapping for the logical thread identification, and send a request to the buffers of the other cores when the first core's buffer does not include the logical to physical thread mapping for the logical thread identification, wherein each of the other cores are to send an unknown identification response if their buffer does not include the logical thread identification and at least one of the other cores is to send the physical thread identification to the first core if its buffer includes the logical thread identification.

  • Publication number: 20170344283
    Abstract: Technology for an apparatus is described. The apparatus can receive a command to copy data. The command can indicate a first address, a second address and an offset value. The apparatus can determine a first non-uniform memory access (NUMA) domain ID for the first address and a second NUMA domain ID for the second address. The apparatus can identify a first computing node with memory that corresponds to the first NUMA domain ID and a second computing node with memory that corresponds to the second NUMA domain ID. The apparatus can generate an instruction for copying data in a first memory range of the first computing node to a second memory range of the second computing node. The first memory range can be defined by the first address and the offset value and the second memory range can be defined by the second address and the offset value.
