Abstract

Technologies for facilitating remote memory requests in accelerator devices are disclosed. The accelerator device includes circuitry to receive, from a kernel of the present accelerator device, a request through an application programming interface exposed to a high level software language in which the kernel of the present accelerator device is implemented, to establish a logical communication path between the kernel of the present accelerator device and a target accelerator device kernel, based on one or more physical communication paths. The communication protocol supported by the accelerator device may allow kernels operating on the accelerator device to send memory requests for memory locations at remote devices, with the communication protocol performing all of the operations necessary to carry out the memory request.
