  • Publication number: 20250199712
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein that are capable of converting pages written in page storage during a user session to page-embedded blocks in block storage for reading. Blocks of first data are read from block storage during a user session. Pages of second data are written to page storage during the user session. The pages of the second data indicate changes to be made with regard to at least a subset of the blocks of the first data in the block storage. At a time instance at which no pages are being written to the page storage, the pages of the second data are transferred from the page storage to the block storage by converting the pages of the second data, which are configured to have a page format associated with the page storage, to page-embedded blocks, which are configured to have a block format associated with the block storage.

  • Patent number: 12169432
    Abstract: A device suspension method and a computing device are provided. In the method, before a device enters a suspended state, memory space occupied by a background process that is unrelated to a foreground process is released. In this way, the background process unrelated to the foreground process is not saved in a memory of the device. In other words, it reduces data stored in the memory when the device is suspended. Therefore, when the device needs to be woken up, only a relatively small amount of data needs to be read from the memory, and a working state can be rapidly restored. This can reduce a delay of reading data from the memory when the device is woken up, thereby accelerating a wakeup speed of the device. In addition, the data is stored in the memory when the device is suspended.
