SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING REMOTE MEMORY AND TEMPORARY PAGE POOL OPERATING METHOD FOR PROVIDING REMOTE MEMORY

摘要

The present invention relates to technology for providing a remote memory, and more particularly, to a system for providing a remote memory which may enable an application in a high performance computing system to use a physical memory of a remote computing node like a local memory of a computing node in which the corresponding application is executed, and a temporary page pool operating method for providing a remote memory.

主权项

1. A system for providing a remote memory comprising:
a grant memory agent unit that is executed in a memory grant node to register a grant memory; a remote memory integrated management unit that is executed in a management node to manage a pool for the grant memory registered by the grant memory agent unit, and finds an appropriate unallocated memory block from a grant memory pool to allocate the found memory block when there is a request for use of the remote memory from the outside; and a remote memory use support unit that is executed in a memory user node, supports that a remote memory user uses an allocated remote memory by requesting allocation of the remote memory from the remote memory integrated management unit according to a request of the remote memory user, and maps the allocated remote memory on a virtual address space of the remote memory user so that the remote memory user uses the remote memory.
