Methods and apparatus for application aware memory patrol scrubbing techniques. The method may be performed on a computing system including one or more memory devices and running multiple applications with associated processes. The computer system may be implemented in a multi-tenant environment, where virtual instances of physical resources provided by the system are allocated to separate tenants, such as through virtualization schemes employing virtual machines or containers. Quality of Service (QoS) scrubbing logic and novel interfaces are provided to enable memory scrubbing QoS policies to be applied at the tenant, application, and/or process level. This QoS policies may include memory ranges for which specific policies are applied, as well as bandwidth allocations for performing scrubbing operations. A pattern generator is also provided for generating scrubbing patterns based on observed or predicted memory access patterns and/or predefined patterns.

Application aware memory patrol scrubbing techniques

Methods and apparatus for software-defined coherent caching of pooled memory. The pooled memory is implemented in an environment having a disaggregated architecture where compute resources such as compute platforms are connected to disaggregated memory via a network or fabric. Software-defined caching policies are implemented in hardware in a processor SoC or discrete device such as a Network Interface Controller (NIC) by programming logic in an FPGA or accelerator on the SoC or discrete device. The programmed logic is configured to implement software-defined caching policies in hardware for effecting disaggregated memory (DM) caching in an associated DM cache of at least a portion of an address space allocated for the software application in the disaggregated memory. In connection with DM cache operations, such as cache lines evicted from a CPU, logic implemented in hardware determines whether a cache line in a DM cache is to be evicted and implements the software-defined caching policy for the DM cache including associated memory coherency operations.

Software-defined coherent caching of pooled memory

Technologies for accelerated key caching in an edge hierarchy include multiple edge appliance devices organized in tiers. An edge appliance device receives a request for a key, such as a private key. The edge appliance device determines whether the key is included in a local key cache and, if not, requests the key from an edge appliance device included in an inner tier of the edge hierarchy. The edge appliance device may request the key from an edge appliance device included in a peer tier of the edge hierarchy. The edge appliance device may activate per-tenant accelerated logic to identify one or more keys in the key cache for eviction. The edge appliance device may activate per-tenant accelerated logic to identify one or more keys for pre-fetching. Those functions of the edge appliance device may be performed by an accelerator such as an FPGA. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

The network node includes a host fabric interface (HFI) configured to facilitate the transmission of data to/from the network node, monitor quality of service levels of resources of the network node used to process and transmit the data, and detect a throttling condition based on a result of the monitored quality of service levels. The HFI is further configured to generate and transmit a throttling message to one or more of the interconnected network nodes in response to having detected a throttling condition. The HFI is additionally configured to receive a throttling message from another of the network nodes and perform a throttling action on one or more of the resources based on the received throttling message.

Methods and apparatus for platform ambient data management schemes for tiered architectures. A platform including one or more CPUs coupled to multiple tiers of memory comprising various types of DIMMs (e.g., DRAM, hybrid, DCPMM) is powered by a battery subsystem receiving input energy harvested from one or more green energy sources. Energy threshold conditions are detected, and associated memory reconfiguration is performed. The memory reconfiguration may include but is not limited to copying data between DIMMs (or memory ranks on the DIMMS in the same tier, copying data between a first type of memory to a second type of memory on a hybrid DIMM, and flushing dirty lines in a DIMM in a first memory tier being used as a cache for a second memory tier. Following data copy and flushing operations, the DIMMs and/or their memory devices are powered down and/or deactivated. In one aspect, machine learning models trained on historical data are employed to project harvested energy levels that are used in detecting energy threshold conditions.

Methods, apparatus and systems for adaptive fabric allocation for local and remote emerging memories-based prediction schemes. In conjunction with performing memory transfers between a compute host and memory device connected via one or more interconnect segments, memory read and write traffic is monitored for at least one interconnect segment having reconfigurable upstream lanes and downstream lanes. Predictions of expected read and write bandwidths for the at least one interconnect segment are then made. Based on the expected read and write bandwidths, the upstream lanes and downstream lanes are dynamically reconfigured. The interconnect segments include interconnect links such as Compute Exchange Link (CXL) flex buses and memory channels for local memory implementations, and fabric links for remote memory implementations. For local memory, management messages may be used to provide telemetry information containing the expected read and write bandwidths. For remote memory, telemetry information is provided to a fabric management component that is used to dynamically reconfigure one or more fabric links.
