摘要:
A method for memory space management in a multitasking capable data processing system including a data processing device and software running thereon. The data processing device includes at least one central processing unit (CPU) and at least one user memory, and the software running on the CPU includes a first computer program application and at least a second computer program application which respectively jointly access the user memory used by both computer program applications during execution. Information of the first computer program application is stored in at least a portion of the memory space of the user memory in a temporary manner, and the integrity of the contents memory space is checked after interrupting the execution of the first computer program application. The first computer program application is only executed further when the memory integrity is confirmed through the checking or when the memory integrity has been reestablished.
摘要:
Replacing a computer program with a replacement version concurrently with its execution by a first instance of an operating system in a computer system, wherein a persistent memory area in the computer system is used to store selected data from the first instance. A snapshot image of a second instance of the operating system, wherein in the second instance the replacement version was executed instead of the computer program, is provided to the computer system. The execution of the first instance is suspended and the first instance is replaced with data from the snapshot image while preserving the persistent memory area. The execution of the first instance is resumed and data from the persistent memory area is restored in the first instance.
