    Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for selecting a waking process. An input module receives a specified input during the off state of a data processing device. In addition, the input module stores the input in the storage module. The storage module may be integrated within the input module. The input module activates the data processing device in response to the input. A wake module retrieves the input from the storage module. In addition, the wake module determines a process that corresponds to the input. The wake module wakes the data processing device using the process.

    Abstract: A method for updating an ISO file, e.g., to add a digital signature to the ISO file, includes adding a supplemental file composed of, e.g., all zeroes to the ISO file before recording, and then recording the ISO file with supplemental file to an optical disk using ISO format. A digital signature is computed after recording. The zeroes in the supplemental file are replaced by the values of the digital signature and the file is re-saved. Also, an ISO file that might have a common part and several unique parts, e.g., for respective languages, is deconstructed such that only a single copy of the common part is recorded to disk, avoiding multiple recordations of the same data.

    Abstract: A system, method, and program product is provided that updates the firmware on a hybrid drive by reserving a memory area within the hybrid disk drive's nonvolatile memory buffer. The firmware update is then stored in the reserved memory area. The next time the platters of the hybrid disk drive spin up, the firmware update that is stored in the reserved memory area is identified. The identified update is then written to a firmware memory of a firmware that controls the operation of the hybrid drive. In one embodiment, the update is written to the firmware memory by flashing the firmware's memory. After the firmware is updated, the hybrid drive is reset. Resetting of the hybrid drive includes executing the updated firmware.

    Abstract: A system, method, and program product is provided that has a virtualized environment provided by a hypervisor. In the virtualized environment, one or more guest operating systems operate simultaneously with a privileged operating system. One of the guest operating systems identifies a device software update, such as a device driver or firmware update, corresponding to a hardware device that is attached to the computer system. The hypervisor is used to notify the privileged operating system of the device software update. When the privileged operating system is notified of the update, the privileged operating system uses one or more techniques to deny the guest operating systems access to the device. The privileged operating system then updates the device software update. After the device software update has been applied, the privileged operating system resumes access between the guest operating systems and the hardware device.

    Abstract: When data changes in LBAs of a disk storage, the IDs of changed LBAs are written to a cache, with the LBAs being hashed to render a hash result. The hash result and contents of the cache are written to a file on the disk, the cache flushed, and the hash result written back to the cache for hashing together with subsequent changed LBAs. The process repeats. In this way, the hash result in the most current file on the disk can be compared with the hash result in cache, and if the two match, it indicates that the files on the disk contain an accurate record of changed LBAs.

    Abstract translation: 当磁盘存储器的LBA中的数据更改时,更改的LBA的ID被写入高速缓存,其中LBA被散列以呈现散列结果。 哈希结果和缓存的内容被写入磁盘上的一个文件,缓冲区被刷新,哈希结果被写回高速缓存,以及随后改变的LBA的散列。 该过程重复。 以这种方式,可以将磁盘上最新文件的哈希结果与缓存中的哈希结果进行比较,如果两者匹配,则表示磁盘上的文件包含已更改的LBA的准确记录。

    Abstract: Hacking a rental computer to use it beyond purchased rental time is prevented by plugging a time card with internal counter into a DIMM socket of the motherboard and encrypting the register locations of the time card with the private key of the motherboard to bind the time card to the motherboard. Thus, if the time card is not detected at boot or if it is removed during operation the computer is disabled. The counter counts down the rented time period as it receives clocking signals, and at the elapse of the purchased period disables the computer.
