A processing system includes an interconnect, a master processing device including processing cores coupled to the interconnect, a hypervisor coupled to the interconnect and configured to allocate the processing cores to one or more virtual machines, domain configuration information including a domain identifier for each of the one or more virtual machines, remote peripheral devices coupled to the interconnect, and a domain access controller coupled to the interconnect and configured to receive the domain identifiers for the remote peripherals directly from the hypervisor through the interconnect.

Systems and methods for assigning domain identifiers to remote peripheral devices using a hypervisor

A diagnostic data generation apparatus for a display controller comprises an underrun detector arranged to monitor, when in use, buffer depletion in order to detect an underrun condition. The underrun condition results from a data feed lag associated with a mismatch between a buffer fill rate and a predetermined output data rate. The underrun detector is arranged to generate diagnostic data in response to detection of the underrun condition, the diagnostic data identifying the underrun condition and a location in an array of pixels associated with the underrun condition.

Embodiments of the present invention related generally to communication systems. One embodiment contemplates a method for operating a communication bus where the method includes detecting a start of frame symbol on the communication bus; determining a length of the start of frame symbol; detecting a start of a synchronization field on the communication bus; determining a length of an adjusted synchronization field; determining if the length of the adjusted synchronization field is less than the length of the start of frame symbol; and if the length of the adjusted synchronization field is less than the length of the start of frame symbol, concluding that the start of frame symbol is valid and concluding that the synchronization field is valid. Embodiments of the invention may be used, for example, with the Local Interconnect Network (LIN) protocol.
