Abstract
The invention relates to checkpointing memory. In one aspect, a processor directs a write request to a location within a first memory. The write request includes at least a data payload and an address identifying the location. An inspection module identifies the write request before it reaches the first memory, copies at least the address identifying the location, and forwards the write request to a memory agent within the first memory.
