  • Publication number: 20230401081
    Abstract: Isolating resources of a virtual machine (VM) guest from a host operating system. A computer system receives an acceptance request from a guest partition corresponding to an isolated VM. The acceptance request identifies a guest memory page that is mapped into a guest physical address space of the guest partition, and a memory page visibility class. The computer system determines whether a physical memory page that is mapped to the guest memory page meets the memory page visibility class. The computer system sets a page acceptance indication for the guest memory page from an unaccepted state to an accepted state based on the physical memory page meeting the memory page visibility class.

  • Patent number: 10436013
    Abstract: A wellbore assembly is provided that can include a first motor housing assembly member and a second motor housing assembly member that can bend relative to the first motor housing assembly at a bend location. The assembly can also include a first inclinometer positioned on assembly side of the bend location to determine a first inclination and a second inclinometer positioned on a second side of the bend location to determine a second inclination. Based on the first and second inclinations, the amount of bend or bend direction of the second motor housing assembly member relative to the first motor housing assembly member can be determined.

  • Patent number: 9932821
    Abstract: A bend angle sensing assembly for determining a downhole bend angle of a downhole adjustable bent housing. The bend angle sensing assembly includes a flow diverter having a plurality of diverter apertures for receiving drilling fluid, the flow diverter orientable to a plurality of diverter configurations in dependence on the bend angle of the associated downhole adjustable bent housing. Each of the plurality of diverter configurations have one or more of the plurality of diverter apertures opening or closing to form a corresponding flow path configuration, each flow path configuration having a different flow area whereby the pressure of the drilling fluid changes for each flow path configuration. Additionally, a pressure sensor is communicatively coupled to the drilling fluid.

    Abstract: A vehicle light system is provided for use with a vehicle having a rear window with a periphery defined by a linear top edge, a linear bottom edge, and a pair of side edges formed therebetween. Provided is a plurality of spaced red light emitting diodes formed along the top edge of the rear window. The red light emitting diodes include a first set of diodes situated to the left of a central extent of the rear window and a second set of diodes situated to the right of the central extent thereof. In use, the red light emitting diodes are adapted to illuminate only during the actuation thereof. Finally, a brake relay control mechanism is adapted to actuate the red light emitting diodes in sequence upon the braking of the vehicle with a short delay therebetween, wherein the red light emitting diodes are actuated in sequence from the central extent of the top edge of the rear window to a side extent thereof.
