  • Publication number: 20230004497
    Abstract: A method of prefetching memory pages from remote memory includes detecting that a cache-line access made by a processor executing an application program is an access to a cache line containing page table data of the application program, identifying data pages that are referenced by the page table data, initiating a fetch of a data page, which is one of the identified data pages, and starting a timer. If the fetch completes prior to expiration of the timer, the data page is stored in a local memory. On the other hand, if the fetch does not complete prior to expiration of timer, a presence bit of the data page in the page table data is set to indicate that the data page is not present.
