Abstract
Techniques are described that can be used to enable a transfer of an operating system from one machine to another. The transfer permits the operating system to be available to the target machine at buffers that are accessible to one or more application or other logic. In some implementations, information related to an operating system migration is stored in a buffer that is accessible to an application that is to use the information and thereby avoids a copy of such information from an intermediate buffer to an application buffer.
