  • Technologies for position-independent persistent memory pointers
    Patent number: 9971703
    Abstract: Technologies for persistent memory pointer access include a computing device having a persistent memory including one or more nonvolatile regions. The computing device may load a persistent memory pointer having a static region identifier, a segment identifier, and an offset from the persistent memory. The computing device may map the static region identifier to a dynamic region identifier and determine a virtual memory address of the persistent memory pointer target based on the dynamic region identifier, the segment identifier, and the offset. The computing device may load an in-storage representation of a persistent-export pointer from the persistent memory, map the in-storage representation to a runtime representation, and determine a target address of a persistent external data object based on the runtime representation. The computing device may include a compiler to generate output code including persistent memory pointer and/or persistent-export pointer accesses.
