Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices for isolating a misbehaving accelerator circuit, such as an accelerator function unit or an accelerated function context, are provided. An integrated circuit may include a region that includes an accelerator circuit. When the accelerator circuit issues a request, another region of the integrated circuit or a processor connected to the integrated circuit may determine whether there is a misbehavior associated with the request and, in response to determining that there is a misbehavior associated with the request, may perform a misbehavior response to mitigate a negative impact of the misbehavior of the accelerator circuit.
