Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices are provided for kernel registry write operations. One embodiment includes a computer readable medium having a program to cause a device to perform a method. The method includes forcing a write operation of kernel configuration information in a kernel registry service memory to a disk. The method also includes disabling subsequent kernel registry service memory writes to the disk while performing kernel configuration operations on the disk.
Claims37
A computer readable medium having a program to cause a device to perform a method, comprising:
- forcing a write operation of kernel configuration information in a kernel registry service memory to a disk;
- and
- disabling subsequent kernel registry service memory writes to the disk while performing kernel configuration operations on the disk.
A computer readable medium having a program to cause a device to perform a method, comprising:
- editing a kernel configuration;
- and
- holding the edited kernel configuration as a pending kernel configuration in memory with a current kernel configuration.
A kernel configuration tool, comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory coupled to the processor;
- and
- program instructions provided to the memory and executable by the processor to:
- force a write operation of kernel configuration information in a kernel registry service memory to a disk;
- and
- disable subsequent kernel registry service memory writes to the disk while performing kernel configuration operations on the disk.
A kernel configuration tool, comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory coupled to the processor;
- and
- program instructions provided to the memory and executable by the processor to:
- editing a kernel configuration;
- and
- holding the edited kernel configuration as a pending kernel configuration in memory with a current kernel configuration.
A kernel configuration system, comprising:
- a kernel configuration tool;
- a system file accessible by the kernel configuration tool;
- and
- means for changing the state of kernel registry service memory writes between an enabled and a disabled state.
A kernel configuration system, comprising:
- a kernel configuration tool;
- a system file accessible by the kernel configuration tool;
- and
- means for holding an edited kernel configuration as a pending kernel configuration in memory with a current kernel configuration.
