Abstract: A computing system can include memory management capabilities. In one embodiment, the system receives a request to allocate a portion of memory, where the request to allocate the portion of memory comprises a memory pool instance; determines a memory pool subinstance from which to allocate the portion of memory based on the memory pool instance; and obtains the portion of memory from the determined memory pool subinstance.

Abstract: A computing system can include memory management capabilities. In one embodiment, the system receives a request to update a first size of each of a plurality of portions of memory to a second size. The plurality of portions of memory can be associated with a first memory pool and the first memory pool can be associated with a memory pool instance. The system creates a memory pool subinstance based on the request. The memory pool subinstance can be associated with the memory pool instance. The system associates a second memory pool with the memory pool subinstance. The second memory pool comprises portions of memory of the second size and the second memory pool is associated with the memory pool instance.

Abstract: A frame identifier running on a computing device generates identifier values and embeds the identifier values in a networking frame. The frame identifier also receives networking frames, and analyzes the received networking frames to identify a subset of received networking frames containing the identifier values. The identifier values indicate that corresponding received networking frames were originated from the network device. The frame identifier also discards the identified subset of received networking frames.

Abstract: A buffer manager allocates and logs network buffers for a non-uniform memory access (NUMA) machine is described. In one embodiment, the buffer manager receives information about an allocated network buffer. The buffer manager determines the allocation point of the buffer and logs information about the allocation point and a consumption profile information. This logged information is analyzed to determine a per-process buffer consumption profile. The NUMA machine is configured using the buffer consumption profile.
