Automatic management of heterogeneous memory resources

A system for resource management, comprising:

• a computer processor;
• a first thread executing on the computer processor;
• a resource map corresponding to a thread stack of the first thread and comprising:
• a plurality of bit values mapped to addresses of the thread stack;
• and
• a memory manager executing on the computer processor and configured to:
• read, in the resource map, a bit value referencing an address of a first binary value in the thread stack;
• determine, based on the bit value, that the first binary value corresponds to a managed resource;
• read a resource identifier section of the first binary value after determining that the first binary value corresponds to the managed resource;
• determine a type of the managed resource based on the resource identifier section;
• interpret, based on the type of the managed resource, at least a portion of a payload of the first binary value as a reference to a resource address of the managed resource in a resource storage;
• and
• access, in the resource storage, the managed resource using the reference.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising a plurality of instructions for resource management, the plurality of instructions comprising functionality to:

• identify a resource map corresponding to a thread stack of a first thread;
• read, in the resource map, a bit value referencing an address of a first binary value in the thread stack;
• determine, based on the bit value, that the first binary value corresponds to a managed resource;
• read a resource identifier section of the first binary value after determining that the first binary value corresponds to the managed resource;
• determine a type of the managed resource based on the resource identifier section;
• interpret, based on the type of the managed resource, at least a portion of a payload of the first binary value as a reference to a resource address of the managed resource in a resource storage;
• and
• access, in the resource storage, the managed resource using the reference.
