Abstract

A method and host computing device that restricts access by one or more applications to a configurable hardware logic device over a bus. At least a portion of the configurable hardware logic device is reconfigured. A determination is made when unplug and plug events have been generated by the configurable hardware logic device. The unplug and plug events are generated without disconnecting power supplied to the configurable hardware logic device. The configurable hardware logic device is re-enumerated on the bus when the determining indicates the unplug and plug events have been generated by the configurable hardware logic device.
