Abstract
An approach is disclosed that identifies a home node of a data granule. The process is performed by an information handling system (a local node) that retrieves a global virtual address directory. The global virtual address directory maps shared virtual addresses to a number nodes that includes the local node with one of the nodes being the home node. The shared virtual addresses correspond to a plurality of memory addresses that are stored in a shared virtual memory that is shared amongst the plurality of nodes. The approach receives a selected shared virtual address, retrieves, from the global virtual address directory, the home node associated with the selected shared virtual address, and accesses the data granule corresponding to the selected shared virtual address from the home node.
