SHARING MEMORY AND I/O SERVICES BETWEEN NODES

Abstract:

A shared memory controller is to service load and store operations received, over data links, from a plurality of independent nodes to provide access to a shared memory resource. Each of the plurality of independent nodes is to be permitted to access a respective portion of the shared memory resource. Interconnect protocol data and memory access protocol data are sent on the data links and transitions between the interconnect protocol data and memory access protocol data can be defined and identified.
