Abstract
Systems, methods, and/or devices are used to store metadata in a storage system. In one aspect, a first user space module sends a logical memory request to a memory management module of a kernel space module. The logical memory request includes data and metadata. A second user space module obtains the metadata of the logical memory request. A storage engine of the second user space module determines, in accordance with the obtained metadata, a location in non-volatile memory for the data. A second user space module generates a physical memory request including an indication of the non-volatile memory for the data. The second user space module transmits the physical memory request to the kernel space memory management module.
