Abstract
Examples described herein and includes at least one processor and a direct memory access (DMA) device. In some examples, the DMA device is to: access a command from a memory region allocated to receive commands for execution by the DMA device, wherein the command is to access content from a local memory device or remote memory node. In some examples, the DMA device is to: determine if the content is stored in a local memory device or a remote memory node based on a configuration that indicates whether a source address refers to a memory address associated with the local memory device or the remote memory node and whether a destination address refers to a memory address associated with the local memory device or the remote memory node. In some examples, the DMA device is to: copy the content from a local memory device or copy the content to the local memory device using a memory interface.
