Page-based remote memory access using system memory interface network device
Examples described herein and includes at least one processor and a direct memory access (DMA) device. In some examples, the DMA device is to: access a command from a memory region allocated to receive commands for execution by the DMA device, wherein the command is to access content from a local memory device or remote memory node. In some examples, the DMA device is to: determine if the content is stored in a local memory device or a remote memory node based on a configuration that indicates whether a source address refers to a memory address associated with the local memory device or the remote memory node and whether a destination address refers to a memory address associated with the local memory device or the remote memory node. In some examples, the DMA device is to: copy the content from a local memory device or copy the content to the local memory device using a memory interface.
Shared memory
Examples described herein includes a network interface controller comprising a memory interface and a network interface, the network interface controller configurable to provide access to local memory and remote memory to a requester, wherein the network interface controller is configured with an amount of memory of different memory access speeds for allocation to one or more requesters. In some examples, the network interface controller is to grant or deny a memory allocation request from a requester based on a configuration of an amount of memory for different memory access speeds for allocation to the requester. In some examples, the network interface controller is to grant or deny a memory access request from a requester based on a configuration of memory allocated to the requester. In some examples, the network interface controller is to regulate quality of service of memory access requests from requesters.
PAGE-BASED REMOTE MEMORY ACCESS USING SYSTEM MEMORY INTERFACE NETWORK DEVICE
Examples described herein and includes at least one processor and a direct memory access (DMA) device. In some examples, the DMA device is to: access a command from a memory region allocated to receive commands for execution by the DMA device, wherein the command is to access content from a local memory device or remote memory node. In some examples, the DMA device is to: determine if the content is stored in a local memory device or a remote memory node based on a configuration that indicates whether a source address refers to a memory address associated with the local memory device or the remote memory node and whether a destination address refers to a memory address associated with the local memory device or the remote memory node. In some examples, the DMA device is to: copy the content from a local memory device or copy the content to the local memory device using a memory interface.
Direct memory access (DMA) engine with network interface capabilities
Examples described herein include one or more processors; a network interface; and a direct memory access (DMA) engine communicatively coupled to the one or more processors. In some examples, the DMA engine is to receive a DMA data access request and based on an address in the DMA data access request corresponding to a remote memory device, the DMA engine is to cause the network interface to generate at least one packet for transmission to the remote memory device. In some examples, if the source address corresponds to a local memory device and the destination address corresponds to a remote memory device, the DMA engine is to cause the network interface to generate at least one packet for transmission to the remote memory device.
DIRECT MEMORY ACCESS (DMA) ENGINE WITH NETWORK INTERFACE CAPABILITIES
Examples described herein include one or more processors; a network interface; and a direct memory access (DMA) engine communicatively coupled to the one or more processors. In some examples, the DMA engine is to receive a DMA data access request and based on an address in the DMA data access request corresponding to a remote memory device, the DMA engine is to cause the network interface to generate at least one packet for transmission to the remote memory device. In some examples, the DMA data access request includes a source address, a destination address, and a length. In some examples, if the source address corresponds to a local memory device and the destination address corresponds to a remote memory device, the DMA engine is to cause the network interface to generate at least one packet for transmission to the remote memory device, wherein the at least one packet includes data stored at the source address.
