Abstract: Template based automatic recovery of virtual machine guest operating systems is provided, that is configured to execute recovery operations within a virtual machine in response to generation of dial-home messages. The error recovery operations, in some embodiments, are based on error recovery templates that specify dial-home event specific sequences of diagnostic operations and actions to be taken to attempt to recover from the errors that cause the dial-home events. By enabling the virtual machine to internally recover automatically from at least a subset of dial-home errors, it is possible to greatly reduce the support cost associated with providing support services for maintaining operation of storage systems. Additionally, enabling automatic recovery of particular errors can reduce the amount of time the storage system or particular aspects of the storage system are inoperable, thus increasing the reliability of the storage system.

Abstract: An Ethernet switch and a switch microcontroller or CPU are integrated onto a system-on-a-chip (SoC). The Ethernet switch remains independently operating at full speed even though the remainder of the SoC is being reset or is otherwise nonoperational. The Ethernet switch is on a separated power and clock domain from the remainder of the integrated SoC. A warm reset signal is trapped by control microcontroller (MCU) to allow the switch CPU to isolate the Ethernet switch and save state. When the Ethernet switch is isolated and operating independently, the warm reset request is provided to the other entities on the integrated SoC. When warm reset is completed, the state is restored and the various DMA and flow settings redeveloped in the integrated SoC to allow return to normal operating condition.

Abstract: Works in the literature fail to leverage embedding access patterns and memory units' access/storage capabilities, which when combined can yield high-speed heterogeneous systems by dynamically re-organizing embedding tables partitions across hardware during inference. A method and system for optimal deployment of embeddings tables across heterogeneous memory architecture for high-speed recommendations inference is disclosed, which dynamically partitions and organizes embedding tables across fast memory architectures to reduce access time. Partitions are chosen to take advantage of the past access patterns of those tables to ensure that frequently accessed data is available in the fast memory most of the time. Partition and replication is used to co-optimize memory access time and resources.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for prefetching data by a display controller. From time to time, a performance-state change of a memory are performed. During such changes, a memory clock frequency is changed for a memory subsystem storing frame buffer(s) used to drive pixels to a display device. During the performance-state change, memory accesses may be temporarily blocked. To sustain a desired quality of service for the display, a display controller is configured to prefetch data in advance of the performance-state change. In order to ensure the display controller has sufficient memory bandwidth to accomplish the prefetch, bandwidth reduction circuitry in clients of the system are configured to temporarily reduce memory bandwidth of corresponding clients.

Abstract: Network services are deployed in a networked environment in association with a user account. Dependencies of a network service, such as other network services, may be identified based on an online analysis and an offline analysis of the network service. Further, anomalies associated with the dependencies may be identified in some situations. A call graph may include nodes corresponding to the network services and its dependencies, and may include an identifier corresponding to a part of the call path that has the anomaly. An inspection of the call graph allows software developers to readily recognize that their service depends on a potentially flawed software that may cause a service failure or outage.
