A semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device comprises a first memory unit including a first memory area, and a first logic area electrically connected to the first memory area, the first logic area including a cache memory and an interface port. The first memory unit executes a data transmission and reception operation with a memory unit adjacent to the first memory unit via the first interface port and the cache memory.

Systems, methods and apparatuses of fine grain data migration in using Memory as a Service (MaaS) are described. For example, a memory status map can be used to identify the cache availability of sub-regions (e.g., cache lines) of a borrowed memory region (e.g., a borrowed remote memory page). Before accessing a virtual memory address in a sub-region, the memory status map is checked. If the sub-region has cache availability in the local memory, the memory management unit uses a physical memory address converted from the virtual memory address to make memory access. Otherwise, the sub-region is cached from the borrowed memory region to the local memory, before the physical memory address is used.

Implementations relate to a data processor that includes a data processing unit having a plurality of processing elements and a cache hierarchy including a plurality of levels of data caches. The data caches include a first level data cache connected to a second level data cache, and a main memory connected to the highest level cache of the cache hierarchy. At least one of the first level data cache or second level data cache is divided into a plurality of cache segments, and during operation of the data processor, at least some of the plurality of cache segments are excluded from cache operation. Each of the excluded cache segments is dedicated to an associated processing element as tightly coupled local access memory.

A data storage device may consist of a non-volatile memory having rewritable in-place memory cells each with a read-write asymmetry. The non-volatile memory can store boot data that is subsequently loaded by a selection module of the data storage device. The selection module may bypass a memory buffer of the data storage device to load the boot data.

Aspects define a dynamic threshold filter data structure that includes a pairing of an override log level value to a key value; in response to an incoming processing request, identify a user identification value that is linked to the request, wherein the user identification value is associated to a default logging level within a thread context map for logging data associated with executing processes in satisfaction of the processing request, and wherein the default logging level is different from the override log level; and in response to determining that the user identification value matches the key value, log data associated with executing processes in satisfaction of the processing request to the override log level.

In one example, a method includes receiving metadata in the form of a modification to metadata represented by a file system namespace abstraction, wherein the file system namespace abstraction corresponds to less than an entire file system namespace, and the file system namespace abstraction includes one or more pages, and one of the pages corresponds to a particular cached block, updating the file system namespace abstraction based on the received metadata, determining if caching is enabled for the file system namespace abstraction, when caching is enabled for the file system namespace abstraction, caching the updated file system namespace abstraction in SSD storage that includes the cached block, and maintaining a status of the cached block in a Dtable of the SSD storage.

The present disclosure includes memory having a static cache and a dynamic cache. A number of embodiments include a memory, wherein the memory includes a first portion configured to operate as a static single level cell (SLC) cache and a second portion configured to operate as a dynamic SLC cache when the entire first portion of the memory has data stored therein.
