摘要

相变存储器(PCM)由于其非易失性、字节可寻址性和就地更新等特性而受到广泛关注。但是,由于PCM的容量尚未完全成熟,因此有人建议将DRAM和PCM组成的混合存储器结构作为主存储器。此外,基于混合内存架构的页面替换算法也正在积极研究中,因为现有的页面替换算法没有考虑到PCM的两个弱点:高写延迟和低持久时间,因此无法在混合内存架构上使用。在本文中,为了减轻PCM的上述硬件限制,我们重新审视了混合内存架构的页面缓存层,并提出了一种新的页面替换算法M-CLOCK,以提高混合内存架构的性能和PCM的使用寿命。特别是,M-CLOCK旨在减少对混合内存架构的性能产生负面影响的PCM写入次数。实验结果清楚地表明,M-CLOCK在PCM写次数和有效内存访问时间方面分别比最先进的页面替换算法高出98%和9.4倍。

M-CLOCK
Phase Change Memory (PCM) has drawn great attention as a main memory due to its attractive characteristics such as non-volatility, byte-addressability, and in-place update. However, since the capacity of PCM is not fully mature yet, hybrid memory architecture that consists of DRAM and PCM has been suggested as a main memory. In addition, page replacement algorithm based on hybrid memory architecture is actively being studied, because existing page replacement algorithms cannot be used on hybrid memory architecture in that they do not consider the two weaknesses of PCM: high write latency and low endurance. In this article, to mitigate the above hardware limitations of PCM, we revisit the page cache layer for the hybrid memory architecture and propose a novel page replacement algorithm, called M-CLOCK, to improve the performance of hybrid memory architecture and the lifespan of PCM. In particular, M-CLOCK aims to reduce the number of PCM writes that negatively affect the performance of hybrid memory architecture. Experimental results clearly show that M-CLOCK outperforms the state-of-the-art page replacement algorithms in terms of the number of PCM writes and effective memory access time by up to 98% and 9.4 times, respectively.
