    摘要: A system and method for achieving one or more protected regions within a computer system having multiple partitions are disclosed. In at least some embodiments, the system includes an intermediary device for use within the computer system having the multiple partitions. The intermediary device includes a fabric device, and a first firewall device capable of limiting communication of a signal based upon at least one of a source of the signal and an intended destination of the signal, the first firewall device being at least indirectly coupled to the fabric device. The intermediary device further includes a first conversion device that is one of integrated with the first firewall device and distinct from the first firewall device, and that is capable of converting between a processor address and a fabric address for use by the fabric device. In some embodiments, the various devices each include Control and Status Registers (CSRs).

    摘要: A scalable computer node includes a first central processing unit (CPU), a memory subsystem, and a socket that is configured to receive a second CPU. An expansion module is mounted in the socket instead of the second CPU, where the expansion module is socket-compatible with the second CPU. The expansion module has a CPU interface to communicate with the first CPU, a memory interface to communicate with the memory subsystem, and a fabric interface to communicate over a communications fabric with an expansion electronic subsystem to expand a capacity of the computer node.

    摘要: A method and system for handling interrupts within a computer system during hardware resource migration are disclosed. In at least some embodiments, the method includes (a) programming an address conversion component so that incoming interrupt signals are directed to a control component rather than to a source processing resource, and (b) accumulating the incoming interrupt signals at the control component. Additionally the method also includes, subsequent to the migration of the partition from the source processing resource to a destination processing resource, (c) sending the accumulated incoming interrupt signals to the destination processing resource, and (d) reprogramming the address conversion component so that further incoming interrupt signals are directed to the destination processing resource.
