Abstract:We explore the design of scalable synchronization primitives for disaggregated shared memory. Porting existing synchronization primitives to disaggregated shared memory results in poor scalability with the number of application threads because these primitives are layered atop cache-coherence substrates, which engenders redundant inter-core communications. High cache-coherence latency (µs) with low bandwidths in state-of-the-art disaggregated shared memory designs amplifies the impact of such redundant communi… Show more
