Abstract
A method, computer program product, and distributed data processing system for memory management. Memory regions are registered and have access rights and Protection domains associated with them in response to receiving a request for a memory operation including a virtual address, which is used to address into a data structure. A second data structure is then used to translate the virtual address into physical addresses for the operation. A third data structure is used to allow an incoming request responsive to a remote operation being initiated.
