Abstract: Methods and apparatuses provide for incremental provisioning of software for a processing system. For instance, a processing system may include a machine accessible medium and a processor in communication with the machine accessible medium. In addition, instructions encoded in the machine accessible medium may cause the processing system to automatically determine whether a storage device in the processing system includes modified blocks, based at least in part on a write log file that identifies blocks that were modified during a user session on the processing system. In response to identifying at least one modified block in the storage device, the processing system may automatically replace data in the modified block with backup data from a different storage device. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system in which a two or more execution contexts of threads are maintained simultaneously using stack switching in an operating environment in which merely one thread can be executed at a given point in time. Execution of instructions in a callee thread is suspended and the execution context including a return address location of a pointer of the callee stack is maintained while instructions are being executed in a caller thread.

Abstract: Technologies for dynamic loading of integrity protected modules into a secure enclave include a computing device having a processor with secure enclave support. The computing device divides an executable image into multiple chunks, hashes each of the chunks with corresponding attributes that affect security to generate a corresponding hash value, and generates a hash tree as a function of the hash values. The computing device generates an initial secure enclave memory image that includes the root value of the hash tree. At runtime, the computing device accesses a chunk of the executable image from within the secure enclave, which generates a page fault. In response to the page fault, the secure enclave verifies the associated chunk based on the hash tree and accepts the chunk into the secure enclave in response to successful verification. The root value of the hash tree is integrity-protected. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A method and system for remote configuration of a computing device includes generating initialization code configured to initialize a memory and/or processor of the computing device dependent on initialization data. The initialization data is generated based on platform data, which is validate based on predetermined criteria. The platform data identifies platform-specific parameters and may be received over a network from a platform manufacturer. In response to validation of the platform data, the initialization data is generated and transmitted to the platform manufacturer for incorporation into the computing device. Upon a processor reset, the initialization code is configured to use the initialization data to perform initialization procedures to initialize the memory and/or processor of the computing device. The platform data may be updated periodically by an end-user of the computing device.

Abstract: A method of transmitting data through network stack choosing one of a synchronous and an asynchronous mode depending on requests of applications. The method may involve changing frequencies of a timer, for example, adjusting the frequency in the asynchronous Application Programming Interface (API) according to a load of network traffic and even stopping the timer for the synchronous API. In the asynchronous API, as heavier network traffic load is expected, the timer may increase its frequency. Accordingly, the timer decreases its frequency detecting the lighter network traffic and the remaining Central Processing Unit (CPU) cycles may be used to execute the foreground task, while the network stack still may respond to Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) and Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) requests. As the application tries to receive packets, for example, downloading a large volume of data, such as the kernel of an Operating System (OS), the network stack may even shut down the timer temporarily and switch to a synchronous mode to improve overall system performance. Here, the network stack may use a busy waiting signal to notify its status.

Abstract translation: 根据应用的请求，通过选择同步和异步模式之一的网络堆栈传输数据的方法。 该方法可以包括改变定时器的频率，例如，根据网络流量的负载调整异步应用编程接口（API）中的频率，甚至停止用于同步API的定时器。 在异步API中，由于预期更大的网络流量负载，定时器可能会增加其频率。 因此，定时器降低其检测较轻网络流量的频率，并且剩余的中央处理单元（CPU）周期可用于执行前台任务，而网络栈仍然可以响应因特网控制消息协议（ICMP）和地址解析协议 （ARP）请求。 当应用程序尝试接收数据包时，例如下载大量数据，例如操作系统（OS）的内核，网络堆栈甚至可以临时关闭定时器，并切换到同步模式以改善整个系统 性能。 这里，网络堆栈可以使用忙等待信号来通知其状态。
