Memory-fabric-based processor context switching system

An Information Handling System (IHS), comprising:

• a memory system;
• a processing system that is coupled to the memory system and that is configured to receive a first request to move a first process executing on the processing system and, in response:
• copy first processing system context values from respective processing system context value storage elements to the memory system;
• and
• generate, subsequent to the copying the first processing system context values from the respective processing system context value storage elements to the first local memory system, a first data mover instruction to transmit the first processing system context values to a memory fabric;
• and
• a data mover device that is configured to receive the first data mover instruction generated by the processing system and, in response, transmit the first processing system context values from the memory system to the memory fabric.

A method for switching processor context via a memory fabric, comprising:

• receiving, by a processing system that is included in a server device, a first request to move a first process executing on the processing system;
• copying, by the processing system in response to receive the first request, first processing system context values from respective processing system context value storage elements to the memory system;
• and
• generating, by the processing system in response to receive the first request and subsequent to the copying the first processing system context values from the respective processing system context value storage elements to the first local memory system, a first data mover instruction to transmit the first processing system context values to a memory fabric;
• receiving, by a data mover device that included in the server device, the first data mover instruction generated by the processing system;
• and
• transmitting, by the data mover device in response to receiving the first data mover instruction, the first processing system context values from the memory system to the memory fabric.
