Techniques are described that can be used to enable a transfer of an operating system from one machine to another. The transfer permits the operating system to be available to the target machine at buffers that are accessible to one or more application or other logic. In some implementations, information related to an operating system migration is stored in a buffer that is accessible to an application that is to use the information and thereby avoids a copy of such information from an intermediate buffer to an application buffer.

In one embodiment, a method is provided. In the method of this embodiment, in response, at least in part, to a determination that an idle condition exists, one or more packets may be transmitted to indicate, at least in part, that a transmitter is desired to refrain from transmitting, during one or more predetermined time intervals, to a receiver. Also in the method of this embodiment, also in response, at least in part, to the determination that the idle condition exists, the receiver may be de-activated, at least in part, during the one or more predetermined time intervals. Of course, many alternatives, variations, and modifications are possible without departing from this embodiment.
