Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for extending the remote direct memory access (RDMA) operations for accessing data from storage class memory (SCM). The method includes receiving an RDMA request in a first semantic, to a memory in a second semantic. The RDMA request in the first semantic is encoded, by encoding a type of the RDMA request into a memory area identifier, which includes an 8-bit key used to define additional storage semantics for the RDMA operation.
