Abstract

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