Abstract

A computer-implemented method for ensuring processing unit hardware state integrity in live migration can include participating as a source, by a processing unit, in a live migration procedure by injecting, into a live migration data package containing a state of the processing unit, a signature verifying the state. The method can additionally include participating as a target, by the processing unit, in an additional live migration procedure migrating an additional live migration data package containing an additional state of an additional processing unit by performing an integrity check based on an additional signature, in the additional live migration data package, verifying the additional state. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
