  • Publication number: 20200252393
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, in response to a request received at a host agent of a server from a user device of a user over a network to process user data, a system transmits a token representing the request to an executor pool having a pool of a number of executors. The system receives by the host agent executable image(s) of an executor from the executor pool, where the executor pool allocated the executor from the pool of executors in response to successfully verifying the token. The system launches a restricted operating environment within the server, including providing the executable image(s) of the executor and the user data to the restricted operating environment. The system executes the executable image(s) of the executor within the restricted operating environment, where the executor, when executed, is to process the user data without accessing an external component external to the restricted operating environment.

  • Publication number: 20200218821
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a system establishes a secure connection between a host system and a data processing (DP) accelerator over a bus, the secure connection including one or more data channels. The system transmits a first instruction from the host system to the DP accelerator over a command channel, the first instruction requesting the DP accelerator to perform a data preparation operation. The system receives a first request to read a first data from a first memory location of the host system from the DP accelerator over one data channel. In response to the request, the system transmits the first data to the DP accelerator over the data channel, where the first data is utilized for a computation or a configuration operation. The system transmits a second instruction from the host system to the DP accelerator over the command channel to perform the computation or the configuration operation.

  • Publication number: 20190286544
    Abstract: The application provides a method, a device, and a server for checking a defective function that are applied to the defective functions in multiple versions. The method comprises: determining a preset defective function; checking whether there is an exception in a parameter of the preset defective functions; returning information indicating the exception of the parameter to an upper-layer function for calling the preset defective function, in a case that there is the exception of the parameter; and executing the preset defective function in a case that there is no exception of the parameter. In the technical solution of the embodiment of present application, filtering out a preset defective function in which there is an exception in a parameter is performed, and the preset defective function may be executed in a case that there is no exception of the parameter, and thus repairing of the kernel or application may be performed without obtaining the source code of the preset defective function.
