Small correction
Direct Storage was on PC (Linux)prior to XSX. 2005 for RAM and 2016 for VRAM. However Nvidia didn’t implement it until recently
Isn’t DirectStorage a part of DirectX? That’s on Linux? I thought this was proprietary Microsoft stuff.
“DirectStorage Linux” search seems to support my assumption.
Are you thinking of resizable BAR / Smart Access Memory?
The function of it is to bypass the cpu in resource calls
DirectStorage is just what Microsoft called it when they tried to brand it as a new feature
That’s not what DirectStorage does though. It reduces CPU overhead but doesn’t eliminate it. It’s not DMA

If you already knew then why did you need me explain in layman’s?
You might as well call it DirectStorage when people outside of Linux will know of that and as per above people will think it started on XSX
