ABSTRACT:
Processor(s) operating a random access memory is subject to reboot processing which comprises clearing the random access memory. Registration is provided of a portion of the random access memory, the registration indicating that data stored in the registered portion of the random access memory is to be preserved during the reboot processing. In reboot processing, the processor responds to the registration, preventing data stored in the registered portion from clearing during the reboot processing.
