## Restoring BO content in parallel | ||
|
||
Restoring the BO content is an important part in the restore of GPU state and | ||
usually takes a significant amount of time. A possible location for this | ||
procedure is the `cr_plugin_restore_file` plugin. However, restoring in this | ||
plugin blocks the target process from performing other restore operations, which | ||
hinders further optimization of the restore process. | ||
|
||
Therefore, a new plugin that runs in the master restore process is introduced, | ||
and it interacts with the `cr_plugin_restore_file` plugin to complete the | ||
restore of BO content. Specifically, the target process only needs to send the | ||
relevant BOs to the master restore process, while this new plugin handles all | ||
the restore of buffer objects. Through this method, during the restore of the BO | ||
content, the target process can perform other restore operations, thus | ||
accelerating the restore procedure. It is an implementation of gCROP from the | ||
ACM SoCC'24 paper: [On-demand and Parallel Checkpoint/Restore for GPU | ||
Applications](https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3698038.3698510). | ||
