  • Shared memory workloads using existing network fabrics
    Patent number: 11853209
    Abstract: Shared memory workloads using existing network fabrics, including: presenting, by a Memory Mapped Input/Output (MMIO) translator, memory of the MMIO translator as a portion of a memory space of a host; receiving, by the MMIO translator, a first interrupt from an input/output (I/O) adapter; and storing, by the MMIO translator, without sending the first interrupt to an operating system, data associated with the first interrupt from the I/O adapter into the memory of the MMIO translator.
    Type: Grant

  • Data exchange using fan unit signal lines
    Patent number: 11474578
    Abstract: Data exchange using fan unit signal lines is disclosed, including receiving a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal on a PWM signal line of a fan unit; detecting that a frequency of the PWM signal is outside a frequency range used to control a fan speed of a fan in the fan unit; selecting a data output based on the frequency of the PWM signal; and sending the data output on a tachometric signal line of the fan unit.
