Abstract: A data processing system includes a runtime processor and a pool of reconfigurable data flow resources with memory units, busses, and arrays of physical configurable units. The runtime processor is operatively coupled to the pool of reconfigurable data flow resources and configured to load first and second configuration files for executing first and second user applications on first and second subsets of the arrays of physical configurable units and to assign first and second subsets of the memory units to the first and second user applications. The runtime processor starts execution of the first and second user applications on the first and second subsets of the arrays of physical configurable units, prevents the first user application from accessing the resources allocated to the second user application, and prevents the second user application from accessing resources allocated to the first user application.

Abstract: A fault management system, executed by one or more coarse grained reconfigurable processors (CGRPs), is provided to perform fault event notification. Before an application begins executing, the CGRPs receive data from the application, determine resources assigned to the application, and determine events associated with the resources. After the application begins executing, the CGRPs when receiving a notification of an event occurring using the fault management system determine that the event is associated with a particular resource and provide notification to the application of the occurrence of the event associated with the particular resource.

Abstract: A data processing system includes a pool of reconfigurable data flow resources having plurality of reconfigurable processors interconnected via a bus, controller, and runtime processor. The controller monitors ports of the bus connected to respective reconfigurable processors and generates hot-plug events in response to detecting disconnection or addition of reconfigurable processors. The runtime processor includes a kernel module with device abstraction module that presents all reconfigurable processors as a single virtual device file to user space, maintaining this unified presentation transparent to changes in the pool. Hot-plug events are transmitted as interrupts to a daemon module, which executes initialization of clocks, bus interfaces, and memory resources for added processors. The system supports distributed hot-plug controllers at each bus port communicating with controller service and driver.

Abstract: A data processing system comprises a pool of reconfigurable data flow resources with arrays of physical configurable units, a controller, and a runtime processor. The controller is configured to generate a hot-plug event in response to detecting a removal of an unallocated array of physical configurable units from the pool of reconfigurable data flow resources. The runtime processor is configured to execute user applications on a subset of the arrays of physical configurable units and to receive the hot-plug event from the controller. The runtime processor is further configured to make the removed unallocated array of physical configurable units unavailable for subsequent allocations of subsequent virtual data flow resources and subsequent executions of subsequent user applications, while the subset of the arrays of physical configurable units continues the execution of the user applications.

Abstract: A fault management system (FMS) receives events indicating an issue with a component in the system and determines, based on an inventory database, the component associated with the events. The FMS creates, based at least in part on the events, an error report that includes: (i) an error type identifying a type of error described in the error report, (ii) a timestamp indicating when the error report was created, and (iii) a universal unique identifier (UUID) to uniquely identify the error report. The FMS determines, based at least in part on the error report, a policy associated with the events and classifies the events, based at least in part on the policy, as either a threshold event or a discrete event. The FMS performs one or more actions to address the events.
