Abstract:
Systems and methods for scheduling virtual processors via memory monitoring are disclosed. An example method comprises: detecting, by a hypervisor of a host computer system, an event associated with a virtual processor running on a physical processor of the host computer system; testing a polling flag residing in a memory accessible by guest software running on the virtual processor, wherein a first state of the polling flag indicates that the virtual processor is monitoring modifications to a memory region comprising a waiting task flag, and wherein the waiting task flag indicates whether a task has been queued for the virtual processor; setting the polling flag to a second state, wherein testing the polling flag and setting the polling flag to the second state is performed in an atomic operation; and processing the detected event.

Claim (Index 8):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the detected event involves preempting a processing thread implementing the virtual processor.
