ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to improving the usage of kernel mode memory in computing environments. The invention is useful in offsetting the effects of abandonment of kernel mode memory objects. Objects in kernel mode memory space are identified and a determination is made whether all references to particular kernel objects are known by examining an object container referring to each kernel object. If all references to a kernel object are known, a determination is made whether the kernel object should be classified as a moveable object. Kernel objects classified as movable are retrievably moved to a new memory location and all references to the kernel object are updated to the new memory location. Retrievably moving kernel objects allows abandoned kernel objects to be readily detected.
