15 Reintroduce extended storage into modern Disk Cache systems by using file memory File memory is more economical per bit than DRAM DRAM design constraints increase costs per bit 100% of nominal capacity must be functional Contiguous address space Consistently good access time File memory relaxes such design constraints Improve yield by avoiding faulty blocks Address space is not contiguous Improve density at expense of performance (e.g. multilevel DRAM) John C. Koob, January 16, 2004 File Memory for Disk Caches p. 8/25
16 Yield models Disk Cache Single cell yields assume a Poisson distribution of faults Negative binomial distribution handles fault clustering Methods for improving file memory yield Redundancy Error-correcting codes (ECC) Bad block marking of partially-good product Combination of the above techniques John C. Koob, January 16, 2004 File Memory for Disk Caches p. 9/25
17 Operating system can assist with fault tolerance Disk Cache Adaptation of the OS memory allocator Reserve faulty pages in file memory at startup Advantages: No fault lists checked during memory accesses Virtually no performance overhead Variable block sizes possible Nice fit for partially-good DRAMs Disadvantages: Challenge to mark blocks smaller than a page Distribution of memory module defect maps John C.
