  • Patent number: 10019288
    Abstract: A hypervisor hosted by a computing system performs a method to allocate a contiguous physical memory space to a device. A given region of physical memory is marked as migratable. From an operating system (OS) kernel, the hypervisor receives a request for memory allocation to the device, the request indicating a first set of available virtualized pages in a virtualized memory. In response to the request, the hypervisor identifies a set of contiguous frames in the given region to be allocated to the device. The set of contiguous frames are mapped to a second set of virtualized pages. The hypervisor disables the mapping for the first set of available virtualized pages and the second set of virtualized pages. Then one or more occupied frames in the set of contiguous frames are migrated out of the given region to allow for allocation of the set of contiguous frames to the device.
