Remote direct memory access with copy-on-write support

Systems and methods for implementing remote direct memory access (RDMA) with copy-on-write support. An example method may comprise: registering, with an RDMA adapter, by a first computer system, a mapping of a first virtual address to a first physical address, for transmitting a memory page identified by the first virtual address to a second computer system; registering, with the RDMA adapter, a mapping of a second virtual address to the first physical address; detecting an attempt to modify the memory page; copying the memory page to a second physical address; and registering, with the RDMA adapter, a mapping of a first virtual address to the second physical address.
