    Abstract: Embodiment of this disclosure provides a mechanism to extend a workload instruction to include both untranslated and translated address space identifiers (ASIDs). In one embodiment, a processing device comprising a translation manager is provided. The translation manager receives a workload instruction from a guest application. The workload instruction comprises an untranslated (ASID) and a workload for an input/output (I/O) device. The untranslated ASID is translated to a translated ASID. The translated ASID inserted into a payload of the workload instruction. Thereupon, the payload is provided to a work queue of the I/O device to execute the workload based in part on at least one of: the translated ASID or the untranslated ASID.

    Abstract: A network interface controller can be programmed to direct write received data to a memory buffer via either a host-to-device fabric or an accelerator fabric. For packets received that are to be written to a memory buffer associated with an accelerator device, the network interface controller can determine an address translation of a destination memory address of the received packet and determine whether to use a secondary head. If a translated address is available and a secondary head is to be used, a direct memory access (DMA) engine is used to copy a portion of the received packet via the accelerator fabric to a destination memory buffer associated with the address translation. Accordingly, copying a portion of the received packet through the host-to-device fabric and to a destination memory can be avoided and utilization of the host-to-device fabric can be reduced for accelerator bound traffic.

    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to at least one processor and circuitry, when operational, to: in connection with a request from a device to copy data to a destination memory address: based on a page fault, copy the data to a backup page and after determination of a virtual-to-physical address translation, copy the data from the backup page to a destination page identified by the physical address. In some examples, the copy the data to a backup page is based on a page fault and an indication that a target buffer for the data is at or above a threshold level of fullness. In some examples, copying the data to a backup page includes: receive the physical address of the backup page from the device and copy data from the device to the backup page based on identification of the backup page.
