Latest Patents

Among his latest patents are "Secure and efficient access to host memory for guests" and "Direct access to host memory for guests." The first patent describes a system that includes a processor, host memory, hypervisor with a filesystem daemon, and a guest with a storage controller. This system allows the storage controller to receive a file request, translate it, and add it to a filesystem queue. The filesystem daemon then retrieves the request and provides access to the identified file in the host memory. The second patent outlines a system where the storage controller forwards a file retrieval request to the filesystem daemon, which maps the host memory address to a guest memory address, allowing the guest to access the file directly.
