A method for detecting a processor comprises: determining a parameter stored in a first-type register in a detected processor, which is used to detect changes in the data processed by the detected processor, wherein the parameter relates to the a number of the data that needs to be processed currently by the detected processor, and relates to the a processing mode of the data that needs to be processed currently by the detected processor which can be characterized by using information of instructions or functions called during processing; determining a working state of the detected processor based on the parameter, and performing an interrupt missing handling operation if the working state is a first type of working state being an interrupt missing state. The method can conveniently and reliably realize the detection of interrupt loss, thereby effectively monitoring the situation of interrupt loss.

Method for detecting a processor, a computer-readable storage medium and an electronic device

Disclosed are a method and apparatus for controlling a hardware module, electronic device and storage medium. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method may include: timing a waiting state of the hardware module to obtain a current waiting duration of the hardware module when it enters a first waiting state; generating an interrupt signal based on the current waiting duration; determining program information corresponding to the current waiting duration under triggering from the interrupt signal; executing an action corresponding to the program information for the hardware module, and controlling it to enter a second waiting state. In the present disclosure, the hardware module is controlled to execute actions corresponding to different programs based on different waiting durations through an interrupt mechanism, thus controlling the hardware module to switch between waiting states with different power consumption, and achieving a good balance between energy saving and performance.

Method and apparatus for controlling hardware device, electronic device and storage medium

Method and apparatus for expedited virtual machine (VM) launch in VM cluster environment. In one embodiment, at least one VM is launched within a host platform. Once initialized, a VM may issue a hypercall to a VM monitor (VMM) of a VM host platform. In response, the VMM may capture a runtime image of the VM. In one embodiment, the VMM loads the runtime image of the VM within a node of the host platform as a child VM. In an alternative embodiment, the VMM issues a VM clone command to a VMM of a next host platform including the runtime image of the VM. In response, the VMM of the next platform loads the runtime image of the first VM within a node of the second host platform as a cloned VM. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Apparatus and method for expedited virtual machine (VM) launch in VM cluster environment

Machine-readable media, methods, apparatus and system are described. In some embodiments, a client platform may determine that an input/output operation related to a hardware device may happen in a virtual machine of the client platform and request a server platform via the network to handle the input/output operation related to the hardware. The server platform may receive the request from the client platform through the network; and identify a software device from a plurality of software devices in the server platform to handle the request, wherein the identified software device corresponds to the hardware device related to the input/output operation.
