A computer-implemented method for ensuring processing unit hardware state integrity in live migration can include participating as a source, by a processing unit, in a live migration procedure by injecting, into a live migration data package containing a state of the processing unit, a signature verifying the state. The method can additionally include participating as a target, by the processing unit, in an additional live migration procedure migrating an additional live migration data package containing an additional state of an additional processing unit by performing an integrity check based on an additional signature, in the additional live migration data package, verifying the additional state. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Systems and methods for ensuring processing unit hardware state integrity in live migration

A technique for managing access to a micro engine, the method comprising: determining that a virtual function 'VF') is to be given access to direct communication with a micro engine; in response to the determining, configuring the micro engine to accept direct communication from the VF; monitoring for unpermitted communication; and after a time period has expired, configuring the micro engine to no longer accept direct communication from the VF.
