Publication number: 20240104193Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for direct assignment of physical devices to confidential virtual machines (VMs). At a first guest privilege context of a guest partition, a direct assignment of a physical device associated with a host computer system to the guest partition is identified. The guest partition includes the first guest privilege context and a second guest privilege context, which is restricted from accessing memory associated with the first guest privilege context. The guest partition corresponds to a confidential VM, such that a memory region associated with the guest partition is inaccessible to a host operating system. It is determined, based on a policy, that the physical device is allowed to be directly assigned to the guest partition. Communication between the physical device and the second guest privilege context is permitted, such as by exposing the physical device on a virtual bus and/or forwarding an interrupt.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Jin LIN, Jason Stewart WOHLGEMUTH, Michael Bishop EBERSOL, Aditya BHANDARI, Steven Adrian WEST, Emily Cara CLEMENS, Michael Halstead KELLEY, Dexuan CUI, Attilio MAINETTI, Sarah Elizabeth STEPHENSON, Carolina Cecilia PEREZ-VARGAS, Antoine Jean Denis DELIGNAT-LAVAUD, Kapil VASWANI, Alexander Daniel GREST, Steve Michel PRONOVOST, David Alan HEPKIN

Patent number: 11914923Abstract: Techniques for computer system-based conversations are described. In an example, a system receives, from a first device, first data corresponding to a first interaction in a conversation that requests a function. The system causes the first device to output a first response to the first interaction. Prior to an execution of the function, the system determines that the conversation is to be paused and causes the first device to output a first indication that the conversation is paused. Upon determining that the conversation is to be resumed, the system causes a second device to output a second indication that the conversation is resumed. The second device can be the same or different from the first device. The system receives, from the second device, second data corresponding to a second interaction in the conversation and causes the execution of the function based at least in part on the second data.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2021Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Shiveesh Fotedar, Saurabh Rathi, Steven Bishop
