An example method of managing memory in a computer system implementing non-uniform memory access (NUMA) by a plurality of sockets each having a processor component and a memory component is described. The method includes replicating page tables for an application executing on a first socket of the plurality of sockets across each of the plurality of sockets; associating metadata for pages of the memory storing the replicated page tables in each of the plurality of sockets; and updating the replicated page tables using the metadata to locate the pages of the memory that store the replicated page tables.

Examples described herein include systems and methods for retaining information about bad memory pages across an operating system reboot. An example method includes detecting, by a first instance of an operating system, an error in a memory page of a non-transitory storage medium of a computing device executing the operating system. The operating system can tag the memory page as a bad memory page, indicating that the memory page should not be used by the operating system. The operating system can also store tag information indicating memory pages of the storage medium that are tagged as bad memory pages. The example method can also include receiving an instruction to reboot the operating system, booting a second instance of the operating system, and providing the tag information to the second instance of the operating system. The operating system can use the tag information to avoid using the bad memory pages.

An apparatus, system, and method for address translation are provided. Physical address information corresponding to virtual addresses is prefetched and stored, where at least some sequences of the virtual addresses are in a predefined order. The physical address information is prefetched based on identification information provided by a data processing activity, comprising at least a segment identifier and a portion of a virtual address to be translated. The storage has segments of entries, wherein each segment stores physical address information which corresponds to virtual addresses in a predefined order. This predefined order means that it is not necessary to store virtual addresses in the storage. Storage capacity and response speed are therefore gained.

A system including a guest virtual machine with one or more virtual machine measurement points configured to collect virtual machine operating characteristics metadata and a hypervisor control point configured to receive virtual machine operating characteristics metadata from the virtual machine measurement points. The hypervisor control point is further configured to send the virtual machine operating characteristics metadata to a hypervisor associated with the guest virtual machine. The system further includes the hypervisor configured to receive the virtual machine operating characteristics metadata and to forward the virtual machine operating characteristics metadata to a hypervisor device driver in a virtual vault machine. The system further includes the virtual vault machine configured to determine a classification for the guest virtual machine based on the virtual machine operating characteristics metadata and to send the determined classification to a vault management console.

An offloaded virtualization management component of a virtualization host receives an indication from a hypervisor of a portion of main memory of the host for which memory allocation decisions are not to be performed by the hypervisor. The offloaded virtualization management component assigns a subset of the portion to a particular guest virtual machine and provides an indication of the subset to the hypervisor.

Methods, non-transitory machine readable media, and computing devices that manage resources between multiple hosts coupled to dual-port solid-state disks (SSDs) are disclosed. With this technology, in-core conventional namespace (CNS) and zoned namespace (ZNS) mapping tables are synchronized by a host flash translation layer with on-disk CNS and ZNS mapping tables, respectively. An entry in one of the in-core CNS or ZNS mapping tables is identified based on whether a received storage operation is directed to a CNS or a ZNS of the dual-port SSD. The entry is further identified based on a logical address extracted from the storage operation. The storage operation is serviced using a translation in the identified entry for the logical address, when the storage operation is directed to the CNS, or a zone identifier in the identified entry for a zone of the ZNS, when the storage operation is directed to the ZNS.
