  • Microsoft Research Detours Package

    Detours is a software package for monitoring and instrumenting API calls on Windows. It is distributed in source code form.

    Project mention: AMD's Anti-Lag feature is getting gamers banned from Counter-Strike 2 | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-17

    Nit: AFAIU there is no literal modification of machine code going on—instead the import address table (IAT, the Windows counterpart of Linux’s GOT) is patched (the Windows tradition calls this “detoured”, from the quite popular Microsoft hack[1] that does it).

  • DirectStorage

    DirectStorage for Windows is an API that allows game developers to unlock the full potential of high speed NVMe drives for loading game assets.

    Project mention: Asynchronous IO: the next billion-dollar mistake? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-09-06

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but Microsoft's DirectStorage seems to me something like what the author is writing about. AFAIK it lets you do massively parallel NVME file io ops from the GPU itself, avoiding the delay of the path through the CPU, extra thread saturation on the CPU/context switches, and even lets you do eg decompression of game assets on the GPU itself. This demo benchmark shows DEFLATE going from 1 GB/s on CPU to 7 GBs/ on GPU https://github.com/microsoft/DirectStorage/tree/main/Samples...
