Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method of a kernel dumper module includes generating a dump file associated with a kernel when the kernel crashes, storing the dump file to a functional memory upon applying an overwrite protection to a core dump of the dump file, restarting the kernel through a warm reboot of the kernel such that the core dump is not erased from the functional memory, and transferring the core dump to a system file using the kernel.
Abstract:
A method and system utilizing a peer mapping system call, called by a first process, to map allocated shared memory into the address space of a second process. Code for implementing the system call can reside in a server which provides services to map allocated shared memory into all the processes having access to shared memory or the code can be located in a library linked to all the processes having access to shared memory.

Abstract:
A lightweight messaging method and apparatus that includes creating a temporary receive data area, and if a receive operation is seen first, then creating an operational receive data area, and waiting for a corresponding send operation to fill the operational receive data area with sent data; and if the send operation is seen first, then filling the temporary receive data area with sent data, when the corresponding receive operation is seen, creating the operational receive data area, and moving the sent data from the temporary receive data area to the operational receive data area.
