A computer-implemented method for allocating memory bandwidth of multiple CPU cores in a server includes: receiving an access request to a last level cache (LLC) shared by the multiple CPU cores in the server, the access request being sent from a core with a private cache holding copies of frequently accessed data from a memory; determining whether the access request is an LLC hit or an LLC miss; and controlling a memory bandwidth controller based on the determination. The memory bandwidth controller performs a memory bandwidth throttling to control a request rate between the private cache and the last level cache. The LLC hit of the access request causes the memory bandwidth throttling initiated by the memory bandwidth controller to be disabled and the LLC miss of the access request causes the memory bandwidth throttling initiated by the memory bandwidth controller to be enabled.

A memory management method of a data processing system is provided. The memory management method includes: creating a first memory zone and a second memory zone related to a first node of a first server, wherein the first server is located in the data processing system, and the first node includes a processor and a first memory; mapping the first memory zone to the first memory; and mapping the second memory zone to a second memory of a second server, wherein the second server is located in the data processing system, and the processor is configured to access the second memory of the second server through an interface circuit of the first server and through an interface circuit of the second server.

A data processing system includes a first server and a second server. The first server includes a first processor group, a first memory space and a first interface circuit. The second server includes a second processor group, a second memory space and a second interface circuit. The first memory space and the second memory space are allocated to the first processor group. The first processor group is configured to perform memory error detection to generate an error log corresponding to a memory error. When the memory error occurs in the second memory space, the first interface circuit is configured to send the error log to the second interface circuit, and the second processor group is configured to log the memory error according to the error log received by the second interface circuit. The data processing system is capable of realizing memory reliability architecture supporting operations across different servers.
