Abstract

A computer-implemented method includes receiving a memory address of a memory location in a memory that has been identified to be failing. The method further includes determining that the memory location is from a particular portion of the memory. The method further includes, in response to a number of memory locations that are identified to be failing from the particular portion of the memory being below a predetermined threshold, logging the memory address in a set of failing address registers associated with the memory, otherwise, skipping the logging of the memory address in the failing address registers.
