SUMMARY:Phoenix: A Refactored I/O Stack for GPU Direct Storage Without Pho
 ny Buffers
DESCRIPTION:Jianqin Yan, Shi Qiu, Yina Lv, Yifan Hu, Hao Chen, and Zhirong
  Shen (Xiamen University); Xin Yao and Renhai Chen (Huawei Theory Lab); Ji
 wu Shu (Xiamen University); Gong Zhang (Huawei Theory Lab); and Yiming Zha
 ng (Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Xiamen University)\n\nGPU Direct Storag
 e (GDS) plays a vital role in GPU storage systems, utilizing P2P-DMA techn
 ology to establish a direct data transfer path between the GPU and storage
  devices. This direct path reduces storage access latency and CPU overhead
 , thus improving data transfer efficiency. Currently, however, GDS employs
  a phony buffer in host memory to interact with the Linux kernel, resultin
 g in suboptimal performance, additional resource consumption, and deployme
 nt complexity.\n\nIn this paper, we propose Phoenix, a refactored GDS soft
 ware stack without phony buffers. Phoenix employs the memory mapping servi
 ce of ZONE_DEVICE to map GPU memory into the page table at system startup.
  The kernel module of Phoenix stores the returned address information, all
 ocates user-space virtual memory, and establishes a mapping with the desig
 nated GPU memory. Extensive evaluation shows that, compared to the existin
 g GDS software stack, Phoenix reduces software overhead along the critical
  I/O path and improves end-to-end performance.\n\nTag: Data Analytics, Vis
