Abstract: In one embodiment, a processing device includes a memory to store a plurality of memory pages having corresponding physical memory addresses in the memory, store an active multilevel page table (MPT) mapping virtual to physical memory addresses for corresponding allocated memory pages stored in the memory, and store a floating MPT at least partially mapping virtual to physical memory addresses for corresponding spare memory pages stored in the memory, the floating and active MPT using a common mapping scheme, and a processor to receive a request to add a virtual to physical address mapping for more memory pages of the plurality of memory pages to the active MPT, and in response to receiving the request, adjoin at least part of the floating MPT to the active MPT so that the active MPT provides the virtual to physical address mapping for at least some memory pages of the spare memory pages.
