Abstract: A system and method for addressing split modes of persistent memory are described herein. The system includes a non-volatile memory comprising regions of memory, each region comprising a range of memory address spaces. The system also includes a memory controller (MC) to control access to the non-volatile memory. The system further includes a device to track a mode of each region of memory and to define the mode of each region of memory. The mode is a functional use model.

Abstract: A computing system is disclosed herein. The computing system includes a computing node and a remote memory node coupled to the computing node via a system fabric. The computing node includes a plurality of processors and a master memory controller. The master memory controller is external to the plurality of processors. The master memory controller routes requests corresponding to requests from the plurality of processors across the system fabric to the remote memory node and returns a response.

Abstract: A technique includes receiving an alert indicator in a distributed computer system that includes a plurality of computing nodes coupled together by cluster interconnection fabric. The alert indicator indicates detection of a fault in a first computing node of the plurality of computing nodes. The technique indicates regulating communication between the first computing node and at least one of the other computing nodes in response to the alert indicator to contain error propagation due to the fault within the first computing node.

Abstract: A computing system can include a processor and a persistent main memory including a fault tolerance capability. The computing system can also include a memory controller to store data in the persistent main memory and create redundant data. The memory controller can also store the redundant data remotely with respect to the persistent main memory. The memory controller can further access the redundant data during failure of the persistent main memory.

Abstract: Examples disclosed herein provide moving a block of data between a source address and a target address. The examples disclose initiating a data move engine to move the block of data from the source address to the target address. Additionally, the examples disclose moving the block of data from the source address to the target address in a manner which allows a processor to concurrently access the block of data during the move.

Abstract: Thinning operating systems can include monitoring a number of functionalities of an operating system, the number of functionalities of the operating system being provided by a number of computing components loaded thereon. Thinning operating systems can include automatically identifying an undesired functionality of the number of functionalities during runtime and removing from the operating system at least one of the number of computing components providing the undesired functionality as a result of the automatic identification to thin the OS.

Abstract: A data processor includes a redirection dynamic address redirection table (DART) for redirecting instruction fetches from an original memory location with an original address to a target memory location with a target address.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides techniques for mapping large shared address spaces in a computing system. A method includes creating a physical address map for each node in a computing system. Each physical address map maps the memory of a node. Each physical address map is copied to a single address map to form a global address map that maps all memory of the computing system. The global address map is shared with all nodes in the computing system.

Abstract: A chassis is configured to hold at least one horizontal row of node modules and a fabric module. The fabric module can be positioned above or below the row so that it can communicatively couple two or more node modules. Each of the node modules and the fabric modules can be inserted into and removed from the chassis longitudinally.
