Abstract: A system includes a memory system and a processing system operably coupled to the memory system. The memory system includes a kernel address space associated with a kernel of an operating system and a user address space associated with a plurality of processes configured to interface with the kernel. The processing system is configured to perform a plurality of operations including determining that one or more new memory pages are assigned to the kernel address space. A kernel submodule of the kernel associated with the one or more new memory pages is identified. Clearing of the one or more new memory pages is skipped based on a memory initialization configuration associated with the kernel submodule. Access to the one or more new memory pages is provided.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes establishing, during boot time of a virtual machine, a virtual remote access service (VRAS) device between the virtual machine and a hypervisor booting the virtual machine. A request for scoped data relevant to the virtual machine is received at the hypervisor from the virtual machine, by way of the VRAS device. The scoped data relevant to the virtual machine is collected by the hypervisor. The scoped data relevant to the virtual machine is transmitted across the VRAS device from the hypervisor to the virtual machine.
