Abstract
Systems and/or methods that provide for the accuracy of address translations in a memory system that decouples the system address from the physical address. Address-modifying transactions are recorded in a non-volatile write buffer to couple the last-in-time translation physical address/location with the current translated physical location/address. In addition, integrity check protection may be applied to the translation and to the written data to limit the amount of data that may be lost in the event of a failure/error occurring during the write operation. Transaction recording and integrity check protection allows for recovery of write operations that may not have fully completed due to the failure/error.
