More Information
Summary:A memory system having memory components, a remote direct memory access (RDMA) network interface card (RNIC), and a host system, and configured to: allocate a page of virtual memory for an application; map the page of virtual memory to a page of physical memory in the memory components; instruct the RNIC to perform an RDMA operation; perform, during the RDMA operation, a data transfer between the page of physical memory in the plurality of memory components and a remote device that is connected via a computer network to the remote direct memory access network interface card; and at least for a duration of the data transfer, lock a mapping between the page of virtual memory and the page of physical memory in the memory components.
