Abstract
The technology disclosed herein enables selective clearing of memory regions upon a context switch. An example method includes the operations of: receiving a memory access request referencing a memory region; determining an identifier of a current execution context associated with the memory region; determining an identifier of a previous execution context specified by metadata associated with the memory region; responsive to determining that the identifier of the current execution context does not match the identifier of the previous execution context, updating the metadata associated with the memory region to store the identifier of the current execution context; clearing at least a part of the memory region; and processing the memory access request with respect to the memory region.
