Smart hibernation on an operating system with page translation

A computerized method for hibernation comprising:

• marking pages in a volatile memory of a computer system as hibernated pages;
• recursively performing a locking process until a number of free pages that the locking process is attempting to lock, are locked in the volatile memory or no free pages can be locked in the volatile memory;
• duplicating the hibernated pages in the volatile memory of the computer system;
• and
• saving the duplicated hibernated pages in the volatile memory to a secondary storage of the computer system.

A computerized method for hibernation comprising:

• marking pages in a volatile memory of a computer system as hibernated pages;
• locking a portion of free pages in the volatile memory;
• duplicating the hibernated pages in the volatile memory of the computer system;
• and
• saving the duplicated hibernated pages in the volatile memory to a secondary storage of the computer system.

A computerized method comprising:

• marking pages in a non-reserved section of a volatile memory of a computer system as hibernated pages;
• copying a reserved section of the volatile memory of the computer system into a portion of the non-reserved section of the volatile memory, wherein the portion comprises hibernated pages;
• duplicating the hibernated pages in the non-reserved section of the volatile memory;
• and
• saving the duplicated hibernated pages in the non-reserved section of the volatile memory to a secondary storage of the computer system.

A computer readable medium having computer-executable instructions comprising:

• copying a reserved section of a volatile memory of a computer system into a portion of a non-reserved section of the volatile memory, wherein the portion contains hibernated pages;
• duplicating the hibernated pages in the non-reserved section of the volatile memory;
• and
• saving the duplicated hibernated pages in the non-reserved section of the volatile memory to a secondary storage of the computer system.

A computerized system for hibernation comprising:

• a volatile memory holding hibernated pages;
• a computer-readable medium operatively coupled to the volatile memory;
• a secondary storage operatively coupled to the volatile memory and the computer-readable medium through a system bus;
• a processing unit operatively coupled to the volatile memory and the computer-readable medium through the system bus;
• and
• a smart hibernation process executing on the processing unit from the computer-readable medium, wherein the smart hibernation process causes the processing unit to mark pages in the volatile memory as hibernated pages, increase a number of free pages in the volatile memory, duplicate the hibernated pages within the volatile memory and save the duplicated hibernated pages to the secondary storage from the volatile memory.
