Abstract:
In an embodiment, a method of processing memory requests in a first processing device is provided. The method includes generating a memory request associated with a memory address located in an unpinned memory space managed by an operating system running on a second processing device; and responsive to a determination that the memory address is not resident in a physical memory, transmitting a message to the second processing device. In response to the message, the operating system controls the second processing device to bring the memory address into the physical memory.
