Patent attributes
The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and computer-readable media for tracking memory usage data on a memory controller system and providing a mechanism whereby one or multiple accessing agents (e.g., computing nodes, applications, virtual machines) can access memory usage data for a memory resource managed by a memory controller. Indeed, the systems described herein facilitate generation of and access to heatmaps having memory usage data thereon. The systems described herein describe features and functionality related to generating and maintaining the heatmaps as well as providing access to the heatmaps to a variety of accessing agents. This memory tracking and accessing is performed using low processing overhead while providing useful information to accessing agents in connection with memory resources managed by a memory controller.
