  • Publication number: 20240126695
    Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to virtualized systems. A first guest memory page may be identified based at least in part on a number of accesses to a page table entry for the first guest memory page in a page table by an application executing in a virtual machine (VM) on the processor, the first guest memory page corresponding to a first byte-addressable memory. The execution of the VM and the application on the processor may be paused. The first guest memory page may be migrated to a target memory page in a second byte-addressable memory, the target memory page comprising one of a target host memory page and a target guest memory page, the second byte-addressable memory having an access speed faster than an access speed of the first byte-addressable memory.

  • Patent number: 11960422
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for a frontend driver that notifies a hypervisor of a map request from a guest driver of a device, wherein the device is passed through to and directly controlled by a virtual machine, and wherein the map request is associated with an attempt of the device to access a guest memory page in a virtualized execution environment. The frontend driver may also determine whether the guest memory page is pinned and send a map hypercall to the hypervisor if the guest memory page is not pinned. Additionally, the hypervisor may determine that the guest memory page is pinned, determine, based on a direct memory access (DMA) bitmap, that an unmap request from the guest driver has been issued, and unpin the guest memory page.

  • Patent number: 11734209
    Abstract: Implementations of the disclosure provide processing device comprising: an interrupt managing circuit to receive an interrupt message directed to an application container from an assignable interface (AI) of an input/output (I/O) device. The interrupt message comprises an address space identifier (ASID), an interrupt handle and a flag to distinguish the interrupt message from a direct memory access (DMA) message. Responsive to receiving the interrupt message, a data structure associated with the interrupt managing circuit is identified. An interrupt entry from the data structure is selected based on the interrupt handle. It is determined that the ASID associated with the interrupt message matches an ASID in the interrupt entry. Thereupon, an interrupt in the interrupt entry is forwarded to the application container.
