73 results about "Memory virtualization" patented technology

In computer science, memory virtualization decouples volatile random access memory (RAM) resources from individual systems in the data centre, and then aggregates those resources into a virtualized memory pool available to any computer in the cluster. The memory pool is accessed by the operating system or applications running on top of the operating system. The distributed memory pool can then be utilized as a high-speed cache, a messaging layer, or a large, shared memory resource for a CPU or a GPU application.

Dynamic selection of memory virtualization techniques

A computer system may be configured to dynamically select a memory virtualization and corresponding virtual-to-physical address translation technique during execution of an application and to dynamically employ the selected technique in place of a current technique without re-initializing the application. The computer system may be configured to determine that a current address translation technique incurs a high overhead for the application's current workload and may be configured to select a different technique dependent on various performance criteria and / or a user policy. Dynamically employing the selected technique may include reorganizing a memory, reorganizing a translation table, allocating a different block of memory to the application, changing a page or segment size, or moving to or from a page-based, segment-based, or function-based address translation technique. A selected translation technique may be dynamically employed for the application independent of a translation technique employed for a different application.

Function-based virtual-to-physical address translation

A computer system employing memory virtualization may employ a function-based technique for virtual-to-physical address translation. A function-based translation technique may involve replacing a generic trap handler and one or more translation table look-ups with a function to compute a corresponding physical address from a given virtual address. The computer system may be configured to determine a translation function dependent on mappings in one or more translation tables. The computer system may be configured to reorganize a memory, to reorganize one or more translation tables, or to allocate different blocks of memory to an application prior to determining a translation function. Different applications or threads executing on the computer system may employ different translation functions. Different regions of memory may be accessed using different translation functions. Some virtual addresses may be translated using a function while others may be translated using one or more translation table look-ups.

Memory protection in a computer system employing memory virtualization

The use of a token-based memory protection technique may provide memory protection in a computer system employing memory virtualization. A token-based memory protection technique may include assigning a unique identifier to an application, process, or thread, and associating the identifier with a block of memory allocated to that application, process, or thread. Subsequent to assigning the identifier, a packet requesting access to that block of memory may include a token to be compared to the identifier. A memory controller may be configured to associate the identifier with the block of memory and to compare the token in the memory request packet to the identifier before granting access. If a second block of memory is subsequently allocated to the application, process, or thread, the identifier may be disassociated with the first block of memory and associated with the second block of memory.

Efficient memory virtualization in multi-threaded processing units

A technique for simultaneously executing multiple tasks, each having an independent virtual address space, involves assigning an address space identifier (ASID) to each task and constructing each virtual memory access request to include both a virtual address and the ASID. During virtual to physical address translation, the ASID selects a corresponding page table, which includes virtual to physical address mappings for the ASID and associated task. Entries for a translation look-aside buffer (TLB) include both the virtual address and ASID to complete each mapping to a physical address. Deep scheduling of tasks sharing a virtual address space may be implemented to improve cache affinity for both TLB and data caches.

The invention relates to a memory virtualization method and system under a Shenwei architecture. The method comprises the following steps: a buffer area for storing a shadow page table base address isbuilt; when the CPU queries that the TLB misses, the CPU accesses the buffer area to obtain a shadow page table base address of the current process, loads the shadow page table base address into a memory management unit, and starts page table query; when mapping missing occurs in the page table query, the CPU switches the client context to the host context to perform page missing interrupt processing; the corresponding TLB directly fills the virtual-real address conversion mapping obtained after page missing interrupt processing to realize TLB prefetching; and the CPU inquires the TLB again to finish the address conversion from the virtual address of the client to the physical address of the host. Based on the TLB characteristic of Shenwei architecture software management, the shadow pagetable and the TLB are refreshed at the same time, and therefore synchronization of the shadow page table and the client process page table is achieved.
