Abstract
In one embodiment, a method is provided. The method of this embodiment may include the allocating of a first set of resources to a first device, and the allocating, by the first device, of a second set of resources to a second device. The first set of resources may include the second set of resources. If the first set of resources is changed, the method of this embodiment may also including the changing, by the first device, of the second set of resources. Of course, many modifications, variations, and alternatives are possible without departing from this embodiment.

5. A method comprising:
-
enabling, by a first device, a second device to perform one or more pending operations; and
prior to the enabling of the second device to perform the one or more pending operations, determining, by the first device, whether a change has occurred to a first set of resources associated with the first device, the second device being associated with a second set of resources comprised in the first set of resources. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7)

15. An article comprising:
-
a storage medium having stored thereon instructions that when executed by a machine result in the following;
allocating, by a first device, a first set of resources to a second device, the first set of resources being a subset of a second set of resources allocated to the first device; and
if the second set of resources is changed, changing, by the first device, the first set of resources. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)

22. A system comprising:
-
a bus;
at least one device coupled to the bus; and
circuitry that is capable of being coupled to the bus, and when the circuitry is coupled to the bus, the circuitry is also capable of being allocated a set of resources, of allocating to the at least one device at least one subset of the set of resources, and, if the set of resources is changed, of changing the at least one subset. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24)
