The Axon bridge chip used on new Cell/B.E. based blade servers comes with a DDR2 memory controller that can be used to attach cheap memory modules, as opposed to the high-speed XDR memory that is used by the CPU itself. Since the memory controller does not participate in the cache coherency protocol, we can not use the memory direcly for Linux applications, but by providing a block device it can be used for swap space, temporary file storage and through the use of the direct_access block device operation for mapping into user addresses, when it is mounted with an appropriate file system.
