Emerging Non-Volatile Main Memories (NVMMs) are expected to be next-generation storage. These memories promise to enable persistent memory, which can store data persistently at the main memory level with low latency. Therefore, the traditional primary storage hierarchy is extended to the non-volatile part by them. Integrating NVMM into computer systems includes some interesting challenges though they are expected to realize a fast and reliable computer system when using them. We explore NVMMs feature and how to handle them efficiently as main storage through developing a new file system in the Linux kernel which exploits memory hierarchy including NVMMs.
