A process may map files to its address space, thereby creating a 1-to-1 equivalence between the files’ data and its corresponding memory-mapped region. Memory mapping has several uses: Dynamic loading ...
In the first installment of this series we had a brief look at the steps needed to get a bare-metal application running on an STM32 microcontroller. While this allowed us to quickly get to the juicy ...
A technical paper titled “DRAM Translation Layer: Software-Transparent DRAM Power Savings for Disaggregated Memory” was published by researchers at Seoul National University. Wenjing Jin, Wonsuk Jang, ...
A memory map is the bridge between a system-on-chip (SoC) and the firmware and software that is executed on it. Engineers may assume the map automatically appears, but the reality is much more ...
Why we need DDR5. Security improvements of DDR5 over DDR4. How RowHammer can be thwarted. Rapid growth in the world’s digital information has driven continued improvements in computing to process, ...
Palo Alto, CA – April 16, 2001 – Denali Software, Inc. today announced an agreement with Rambus, Inc. Under the terms of theagreement, Denali will integrate Rambus' RDRAM memory controllerintellectual ...
Here are the benefits and some caveats to running data-path applications in the user space. Discussed is Linux's UIO framework. Traditionally, packet-processing or data-path applications in Linux have ...
Denali Software Inc. today said it has licensed Rambus Inc.'s RDRAM memory controller intellectual property (IP) for use in its Databahn product, an online tool for generating high-performance memory ...
Just as you can often treat device registers as a memory-mapped struct, you can treat an interrupt vector as a memory-mapped array. In my last column, I suggested that you use casts sparingly and with ...
