MECHANISM TO MIGRATE THREADS ACROSS OPERATING SYSTEMS IN A DISTRIBUTED MEMORY SYSTEM

A method of migrating threads across a first node running a first operating system and a second node running a second operating system that is a different instance than the first operating system.

Zusammenfassung:A method of migrating threads across a first node running a first operating system and a second node running a second operating system that is a different instance than the first operating system. The method includes a task of receiving, by a thread daemon of the first node, a request from a process on the first node to migrate a thread of the process to the second node. The method also includes a task of sending, by the thread daemon of the first node, the request to a thread daemon of the second node, a task of creating, by the thread daemon of the second node, a thread entry in a thread proxy of the second node and a proxy process on the second node, and a task of instantiating the thread within the proxy process.
