Abstract
Disclosed systems and methods support dynamic HMB mapping at runtime to ensure seamless access across an array of NVMe drives. Disclosed systems and methods may feature a runtime workload context-aware memory reference protocol that provides a dynamic way to adjust the size of HMB as well internal memory regions based on the workload of an application, VM, or container. In at least some embodiments, disclosed systems and method detect an NVMe drive swap or removal event and dynamically retain, merge, adjust the HMB regions.
