Abstract

A data mover selection system includes a memory system coupled to first and second data mover devices, and an operating system coupled to the first and second data mover devices. The operating system determines that a first data transfer operation provides for the transfer of data between first and second memory locations in the memory system, and identifies the first data mover device for performing the first data transfer operation based on the first data mover device having a higher priority relative to the second data mover device for performing data transfers between the first and second memory locations in the memory system. In response, the operating system transmits a first data transfer instruction to the first data mover device that causes the first data mover device to perform the first data transfer operation to transfer data between the first and second memory locations in the memory system.
