A nonvolatile memory device includes a nonvolatile memory, a volatile memory being a cache memory of the nonvolatile memory, and a first controller configured to control the nonvolatile memory. The nonvolatile memory device further includes a second controller configured to receive a device write command and an address, and transmit, to the volatile memory through a first bus, a first read command and the address and a first write command and the address sequentially, and transmit a second write command and the address to the first controller through a second bus, in response to the reception of the device write command and the address.

A method comprising: receiving, at a vector processor, a request to store data; performing, by the vector processor, one or more transforms on the data; and directly instructing, by the vector processor, one or more storage device to store the data; wherein performing one or more transforms on the data comprises: erasure encoding the data to generate n data fragments configured such that any k of the data fragments are usable to regenerate the data, where k is less than n; and wherein directly instructing one or more storage device to store the data comprises: directly instructing the one or more storage devices to store the plurality of data fragments.

Volatile memory devices may be on a first memory module that is coupled to a memory controller by a first signal path. A nonvolatile memory device may be on a second memory module that is coupled to the first memory module by a second signal path. A memory transaction for the nonvolatile memory device may be transferred from the memory controller to at least one of the volatile memory devices using the first signal path and data associated with the memory transaction is to be written from at least one of the volatile memory devices to the nonvolatile memory device using the second signal path and a control signal. A durability circuit may generate the control signal based on a comparison of a number of write transactions to a particular memory location with a threshold value.

Methods and systems include memory devices with multiple memory cells configured to store data. The memory devices also include a cache configured to store at least a portion of the data to provide access to the at least the portion of the data without accessing the multiple memory cells. The memory devices also include control circuitry configured to receive a read command having a target address. Based on the target address, the control circuitry is configured to determine that the at least the portion of the data is present in the cache. Using the cache, the control circuitry also outputs read data from the cache without accessing the plurality of memory cells.

Various embodiments are generally directed to virtualized systems. A first guest memory page may be identified based at least in part on a number of accesses to a page table entry for the first guest memory page in a page table by an application executing in a virtual machine (VM) on the processor, the first guest memory page corresponding to a first byte-addressable memory. The execution of the VM and the application on the processor may be paused. The first guest memory page may be migrated to a target memory page in a second byte-addressable memory, the target memory page comprising one of a target host memory page and a target guest memory page, the second byte-addressable memory having an access speed faster than an access speed of the first byte-addressable memory.

Treating main memory as a collection of tagged cache lines for trace logging. A computer system allocates a plurality of memory blocks, and a corresponding plurality of tags, within a main memory. Each tag indicates whether data stored in a corresponding memory block has been captured by an execution trace. The computer system synchronizes these tags with tags in a memory cache and manages a traced status of the memory blocks. This can include one or more of (i) setting a tag to indicate a memory block has not been captured based on identifying a direct memory access operation, (ii) setting a tag based on whether a paged-in value of a memory block has been captured, (iii) setting a tag or memory categorization based whether a memory block has been initialized, or (iv) setting a tag or memory categorization based whether a memory block is mapped to a file.

A method comprising: receiving a request to write data at a virtual location; writing the data to a physical location on a persistent storage device; and recording a mapping from the virtual location to the physical location; wherein the physical location corresponds to a next free block in a sequence of blocks on the persistent storage device.

A computer-implemented method for memory macro disablement in a cache memory includes identifying a defective portion of a memory macro of a cache memory bank. The method includes iteratively testing each line of the memory macro, the testing including attempting at least one write operation at each line of the memory macro. The method further includes determining that an error occurred during the testing. The method further includes, in response to determining the memory macro as being defective, disabling write operations for a portion of the cache memory bank that includes the memory macro by generating a logical mask that includes at least bits comprising a compartment bit, and read address bits.
