Abstract: A serial communication bus system with dynamic address assignment and its control method are provided in this invention. The system allows the master device to directly assign device addresses to slave devices without the need for additional signals. This assignment is determined by whether the slave device returns a confirmation (ACK) signal, enabling the next address allocation. Slave devices can also obtain unique device addresses through this allocation process. Therefore, with this invention's serial communication bus system and control method featuring dynamic address assignment, existing I2C bus signals can dynamically assign device addresses, facilitating the identification of a plurality of slave devices and preventing address conflicts among them, thereby improving communication transmission.

Abstract: The disclosed technologies provide functionality for non-volatile memory device-assisted live migration of virtual machine (“VM”) data. A host computing device (the “host”) requests that a source non-volatile memory device track changes to a namespace by a VM. In response thereto, the source device tracks changes made by the VM to the namespace and stores one or more data structures that identify the changed portions of the namespace. The host requests the data structures from the source device and requests the contents of the changed portions from the source device. The host then causes the data changed by the VM in the namespace to be written to a namespace on a target non-volatile memory device. The host can also retrieve the device internal state of a child physical function on the source device. The host migrates the retrieved device internal state to a child physical function on the target device.
