The CPU and the GPU share access to some pages of memory. New Linux code helps the kernel keep track of memory holding data for the GPU. The management of video hardware has long been an area of ...

I'm hoping there are a few kernel hackers around here who might have some insights into this... I have a long standing habit of using "gutless wonder" ARM boards for desktop. Some work well, some work ...

Memory management is a critical aspect of modern operating systems, ensuring efficient allocation and deallocation of system memory. Linux, as a robust and widely used operating system, employs ...

Support for unified memory across CPUs and GPUs in accelerated computing systems is the final piece of a programming puzzle that we have been assembling for about ten years now. Unified memory has a ...

Graphics processors need a lot of memory bandwidth for good performance. This is why discrete GPUs have hot-clocked GDDR or HBM on massively-wide memory interfaces, but integrated graphics don't have ...

Memory management on Linux systems is complicated. Seeing high usage doesn’t necessarily mean there’s a problem. There are other things you should also consider. Running out of memory on a Linux ...
