The M-Machine's combined hardware-software shared-memory system provides significantly lower remote memory latencies than software DSM systems while retaining the flexibility of software DSM. This system is based around four hardware mechanisms for shared memory: status bits on individual memory blocks, hardware translation of memory addresses to home processors, fast detection of remote accesses, and dedicated thread slots for shared-memory handlers. These mechanisms have been implemented on the MAP processor, and allow remote memory references to be completed in as little as 336 cycles at low hardware cost. |
