PMem Repositories

Here is a list of all the repositories in the pmem organization in GitHub under https://github.com/pmem.

Discontinuation of the projects

Some projects will be discontinued, they are crossed out below (in the table). You will find more information here.

    PMDK Repositories

    The Persistent Memory Development Kit is a collection of libraries and tools. The source is spread across many repositories. Components are separated like this to help with the logistics of parallel development and asynchronous delivery.

    Components Focused on Persistence:

    • libpmemlog
    • libpmempool
    • libpmemset
    • librpmem
    • pmempool utility
    • Core PMDK C examples
    • Web content for pmem.io/pmdk (in gh-pages branch)

    Components Focused on Volatile Usages of pmem:

    Repo NameDescriptionMicrosite
    memkindGeneral-purpose malloc/free-style library
    (Actually lives outside the pmem GitHub org since it has a life outside of pmem as well)    		-
    vmemcacheA buffer based LRU cachepmem.io/vmemcache
    vmemlibvmem, the predecessor to libmemkind.
    Maintenance-only -- use libmemkind for all new development.    		pmem.io/vmem/libvmem

    Experimental PMDK components (not yet ready for production use):

    Repo NameDescriptionMicrosite
    pcjPersistent Collections for Java-
    pmemfileUserspace implementation of file APIs using pmem-
    syscall_interceptSyscall intercepting library used by libpmemfile-
    vltraceTool for tracing syscalls-
    pynvmExperimental prototype Python bindings for libpmemobj-

    Other:

    Repo NameDescriptionMicrosite
    dev-utils-kitTools used for development of projects under pmem organization-
    autoflushtestBasic data integrity test for platforms with flush-on-fail CPU caches-
    ndctl

    ndctl is the Linux utility for managing persistent memory.

    Repo NameDescriptionMicrosite
    ndctlndctl, daxctl, and related librariespmem.io/ndctl
    Web Content

    The pmem.io website is implemented as static content on GitHub using Jekyll, GitHub-flavored MarkDown, and some tool-generated HTML here and there. Some sub-areas of the website live in the gh-pages branch of the corresponding repo (for example, pmdk and ndctl).

    Repo NameDescriptionMicrosite
    docsPersistent Memory Docbook-
    pmem.github.ioRepo containing the pmem.io website (including blogs)-
    pmdk-examplesPMDK examples and tutorials-
    bookExamples used in the pmem Programming Book-
    knowledge-baseKnowledge Base for pmem.iopmem.io/knowledgebase
    pmem-aware Software

    These repos contain experimental versions of software modified to leverage persistent memory. Typically, when the features are mature and tested they become part of the upstream repo.

    Repo NameDescriptionMicrosite
    pelikanWorking tree for development of pmem-related features for Twitter's Pelikan-
    pmem-rocksdbRocksDB modified to use pmem-
    pmem-redisRedis, enhanced to use pmem-
