Accelerating Virtual Machine Access with the Storage Performance Development ...Michelle Holley
Abstract: Although new non-volatile media inherently offers very low latency, remote access
using protocols such as NVMe-oF and presenting the data to VMs via virtualized interfaces such as virtio
adds considerable software overhead. One way to reduce the overhead is to use the Storage
Performance Development Kit (SPDK), an open-source software project that provides building blocks for
scalable and efficient storage applications with breakthrough performance. Comparing the software
paths for virtualizing block storage I/O illustrates the advantages of the SPDK-based approach. Empirical
data shows that using SPDK can improve CPU efficiency by up to 10 x and reduce latency up to 50% over
existing methods. Future enhancements for SPDK will make its advantages even greater.
Speaker Bio: Anu Rao is Product line manager for storage software in Data center Group. She helps
customer ease into and adopt open source Storage software like Storage Performance Development Kit
(SPDK) and Intelligent Software Acceleration-Library (ISA-L).

How to put 10lbs of functionality into a 5lb package.Marc Karasek
The document discusses how to add more functionality to an embedded system without increasing the package size. It recommends layering the firmware code into platform-dependent, system-dependent, and OS/application layers. Each layer should be able to load the layer above it. It also suggests including robust debug capabilities to help troubleshoot problems early in the boot process using a small, lightweight debug monitor. Layering the code in this way allows for a modular debugging approach rather than a monolithic one.

6. Behavioral Considerations
2 Behavioral Considerations
2.1 Power Policy Considerations
The power policies defined by Microsoft Windows Vista (Balanced, Power saver, and
High performance) impact both power and performance of a specific system. When
conducting any drive level testing, please consider that the hard drive will be spun
down more often in an aggressive power policy at the expense of a several second
delay when the hard drive is spun back up.
2.2 Resume Time Measurement considerations
There is a discrepancy between the use of Microsoft’s Power Test utility in WDK and
stopwatch method in measuring resume from standby (S3) and hibernate (S4). Until
this is resolved, Intel recommends the stopwatch method for measuring these times.
2.3 ReadyBoost Status
On a Windows ReadyBoost* enabled system, each time the OS boots up, there is a
short window when the Windows ReadyBoost status in the Intel Turbo Memory Console
shows as disabled. This is caused by the OS generating the ReadyBoost file. Once the
file is created, the Intel Turbo Memory Console will show the status as enabled.
2.4 NVCACHE Drive Initialization Considerations
Under limiting circumstances, it has been seen that the NVCACHE drive used for
ReadyBoost may not be configured properly. If configuration issues arise, available
options are to use either the console or the TurboConfig application to correctly
configure the disk volume. For a volume which is unallocated, a reboot will be required
for changes to take effect. If using the console, simply open it, check the ReadyBoost
support option, then restart the system. If using the TurboConfig application, simply
run “TurboConfig –rb e” at the command prompt, then restart the system. For an
allocated volume which has a drive letter assigned, the quickest corrective action is to
run “TurboConfig –initnvc” at the command prompt to delete the drive letter. In this
single step, no reboot is required. If using the console to remove the drive letter,
delete the volume via the Disk Management OS service (another option: open the
console, disable ReadyBoost, and then restart the system), open the console, check the
ReadyBoost support option, and then restart the system.

7. Behavioral Considerations
2.5 Intel® Turbo Memory Upgrade/Replacement
Considerations
Any Intel Turbo Memory hardware change on an enabled system requires that the
driver package be uninstalled before the hardware is changed and re-installed after the
hardware has been changed. The steps when changing the hardware are as follows:
Uninstall the driver (go to “Programs and Features” in Control Panel), power down,
change hardware, boot to the OS, re-install the driver package.

15. Issues – Known in this release
9 Issues – Known in this release
Table 7. Issues known in this release
Reference Description
No:
N/A Standby and Resume issues have been seen on SATA Ports where an ACPI _PS3
method to power down a given hard drive is defined and the hard drive is being
cached by Intel® Turbo Memory. For the Santa Rosa Customer Reference
Boards, the cached hard drive should only be connected to either Port 1 or Port
2, as Port 0 does implement the ACPI _PS3 method.
N/A A few I/Os take significantly longer than majority of the other I/Os. This can
result in larger than expected variances on some performance tests, and also
non-representative averages due to the outliers. Customers measuring
performance of individual I/Os are requested to discard such outliers for this
release. Intel will continue to tune the driver to further reduce the outliers.
2195901 Intel® Turbo Memory driver currently does not pass the WDK Piton test called
Power Performance Test. This issue is under discussion with Microsoft.
2211046 Resume from S4 takes longer with Intel Turbo Memory than without. The delay
is anywhere between 1 to 3 seconds.

languages, in the Intel Turbo Memory Console System Information, the ™ and ®
characters are corrupted.
2290701 Console showing junk values in System Information for the hard drive “Model
Name” and “Capacity” when Intel Turbo Memory is loaded but the Intel Matrix
Storage Manager is not.
2333491 [Localization]: For Japanese, Chinese Simplified, and Chinese Traditional
languages, the Report.txt generated by console will show the ® character as
corrupted in the section of the report that is in English.
2438081 [ReadyDrive]: Unchecking the Windows ReadyDrive checkbox in the console will
not fully disable the Windows ReadyDrive feature.
2438311 Windows ReadyBoost will be reported as enabled in the console when a USB
Thumb Drive is connected and Windows ReadyBoost is enabled on the thumb
drive.
2442583 Sporadic 0xD1 BSOD when doing short duration restart testing.
Note: This issue has been seen only when implementing 15 second restart
cycles.
2443768 Drive Letter sometimes assigned to the NVCACHE Partition.
2517403 [Localization]: Control Panel Add/Remove string is not right to left in Arabic and
Hebrew.
