摘要:
Each time a currently scheduled virtual machine (VM) accesses a hardware resource over a bus for the hardware resource via the currently scheduled VM running on a processor, a hardware component adjusts a bandwidth counter associated with usage of the bus for the hardware resource, without involvement of the currently scheduled VM or a hypervisor managing the currently scheduled VM. Responsive to the bandwidth counter reaching a threshold value, the hardware component issues an interrupt for handling by the hypervisor to maintain bandwidth quality-of-service (QoS) of bus bandwidth related to the hardware resource. Upon expiration of a regular time interval prior to the bandwidth counter reaching the threshold value, the hardware component resets the bandwidth counter to a predetermined value associated with the currently scheduled VM, without involvement of the currently scheduled VM or the hypervisor; the hardware component does not issue an interrupt. The hardware resource can be memory.

摘要:
A data processing system that is capable of providing dynamically adjusted renderings of images is disclosed. The data processing system uses an operating system that provides a graphical user interface (GUI) displayable in a first color scheme. The data processing system further includes a least one, preferably more, device drivers supporting a second color scheme. More particularly, the system performs dynamically adjusted rendering from the first color scheme to the second color scheme. To perform such rendering, the system renders a graphic primitive in the first color scheme to a second color scheme and stores the rendered graphic primitive as a new second color scheme surface. This is repeated iteratively until such a time as the rendered surface has been completed. Preferably, the second color scheme is CYAN, MAGENTA, and YELLOW (CMY) and may further include BLACK (K).
