Abstract
A Non-Volatile Dual In-Line Memory Module is disclosed (NVDIMM) (105). The NVDIMM (105) may be installed in a Dual In-Line Memory Module (DIMM) docket (125). The NVDIMM (105) may include a non-volatile memory (130). A device driver (160) may intercept a request for a memory address (605) destined for a host memory controller (115), replace the memory address (605) with a pre-mapped memory address (610) or an alias (705, 710) of the pre-mapped memory address (610), and send the pre-mapped memory address (610) to the host memory controller (115), so that the host memory controller (115) generates a target memory address (615) to NVDIMM (105).
