Abstract:
Illustrated embodiments provide a computer implemented method and data processing system for redispatching a partition by tracking a set of memory pages, belonging to the dispatched partition. In one illustrative embodiment the computer implemented method comprises finding an effective page address to real page address mapping for a page address miss in response to determining the page address miss in a page addressing buffer, and saving the mapping as an entry in an array. The computer implemented method creates a preserved array from the array in response to determining the dispatched partition to be an undispatched partition. The computer implemented method further analyzes of the preserved array for a compressed page in response to determining the undispatched partition is now redispatched, and decompresses the compressed page prior to the partition being redispatched.
