ABSTRACT:
Embodiments of the invention provide a method for regaining memory consistency after a trap via transactional memory. Transactional memory and a transactional memory log are used to undo changes made to memory from a transaction start point up to the point of a trap event. After the trap event is processed, and the changes are rolled back, the program can resume execution at the beginning of the transaction.
