Abstract

See full text

An acceleration mechanism for boot-up processing in a computing system is provided. The acceleration mechanism relies on recording most, if not all, of the read transactions, associated with requests and retrievals made during a boot-up and, in some aspects most, if not all, of the write transactions, associated with requests and stores made during a shutdown process. Prior to executing the boot-up process, data associated with the transactions is pre-fetched based on the recorded information and used to make the requests or information retrievals during the ensuing boot-up process. Additionally, since the mechanism of the present innovation provides for continual recording and the transaction data, the acceleration of the boot-up process can be adaptive even if hardware additions/changes or any other changes that affect the boot-up or shutdown process occur.
