VIRTUAL MACHINE INPUT/OUTPUT THREAD MANAGEMENT

摘要

A method performed by a physical computing system includes detecting an interrupt signal sent to a virtual processor being managed by the hypervisor, creating a map between the virtual processor and an Input/Output (I/O) thread associated with the interrupt signal, determining that the virtual processor is idle, finding the I/O thread associated with the idle virtual processor based on the map, and moving the I/O thread associated with the idle virtual processor up in a processing queue, the processing queue being for processes to be executed on a physical processor.

1. A method performed by a physical computing system, the method comprising:
with a hypervisor, detecting an interrupt signal sent to a virtual processor being managed by the hypervisor; creating a map between the virtual processor and an Input/Output (I/O) thread associated with the interrupt signal; and in response to determining that the virtual processor is idle;
finding the I/O thread associated with the idle virtual processor based on the map; andmoving the I/O thread associated with the idle virtual processor up in a processing queue, the processing queue being for processes to be executed on a physical processor.
