Abstract:
Process isolation for a PIM device through exclusive locking includes receiving, from a process, a call requesting ownership of a PIM device. The request includes one or more PIM configuration parameters. The exclusive locking technique also includes granting the process ownership of the PIM device responsive to determining that ownership is available. The PIM device is configured according to the PIM configuration parameters.
