The first kernel determines that the system call is remotely executed by a second kernel of the second computer system. The system call and associated parameters are converted to be executable in the second computer system and transferred to the second computer system. The second computer system executes the system call and a result is returned to the first computer system. The result is reversely converted for the first computer system and the user application receives the result. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100162252 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SHIFTING WORKLOADS ACROSS PLATFORM IN A HYBRID SYSTEM - A system and associated method for shifting workloads across platform in a hybrid system. A first kernel governing a first platform of the hybrid system starts a process that is executable in a second platform of the hybrid system. The first kernel requests a second kernel governing the second platform to create a duplicate process of the process such that the process is executed in the second platform. The process represents the duplicate process in the first platform without consuming clock cycles of the first platform. During an execution of the duplicate process in the second platform, the first kernel services an I/O request of the duplicate process that is transferred from the second kernel to the first kernel. When the duplicate process is terminated, the process in the first platform is removed first before the duplicate process releases resources. | 06-24-2010 |
