Compiler-Assisted Crash Consistency for PMEM

Writing crash-consistent programs for memory-semantic storage such as persistent memory (PMEM) is error-prone and cumbersome. Programmers must implement both the main logic and the recovery logic to ensure data consistency after unexpected power failures. Prior work has reduced this burden using compiler-assisted logging techniques to enforce crash consistency. However, these techniques often apply persistence uniformly, limiting support for diverse programming models and incurring high logging overhead.

Abstract

Writing crash-consistent programs for memory-semantic storage such as persistent memory (PMEM) is error-prone and cumbersome. Programmers must implement both the main logic and the recovery logic to ensure data consistency after unexpected power failures. Prior work has reduced this burden using compiler-assisted logging techniques to enforce crash consistency. However, these techniques often apply persistence uniformly, limiting support for diverse programming models and incurring high logging overhead.
