A Bounded Reclaim Actuator for PSI-Guided Compressed Memory: A Controlled Ablation

When the aggregate working set of active processes exceeds physical RAM capacity, the machine experiences memory pressure. Applications may therefore slow down before the kernel kills a process. Linux provides several ways to observe and respond: Pressure Stall Information (PSI) can detect memory-related task stalls, z...

Supporting Memory Safety with a Security-Enhanced Memory Controller

SerMC is proposed, a memory-controller-based tripwire mechanism that validates accesses when metadata arrives from Dynamic Random Access Memory and extends enforcement to DRAM-bound accesses issued by both processors and DMA-capable devices, and provides practical average-case overhead but still exposes a clear worst-c...

Packets are Not Pages: Flow-Based Addressing Conserves Memory Bandwidth

SmartNICs promise hardware offloading for network applications like traffic analysis and virtual host dispatching. However, due to memory bandwidth limitations, SmartNICs are unable to effectively accelerate applications like intrusion detection and deep packet inspection that require high-speed reassembly. We argue th...
