Abstract
Examples include a computing system for receiving memory class of service parameters; setting performance monitoring configuration parameters, based at least in part on the memory class of service parameters, for use by a performance monitor of a memory controller to generate performance monitoring statistics by monitoring performance of one or more workloads by a plurality of processor cores based at least in part on the performance monitoring configuration parameters; receiving the performance monitoring statistics from the performance monitor; and generating, based at least in part on the performance monitoring statistics, a plurality of memory bandwidth settings to be applied by a memory bandwidth allocator to the plurality of processor cores to dynamically adjust priorities of memory bandwidth allocated for the one or more workloads to be processed by the plurality of processor cores.
