Abstract
A system includes a memory buffer to cache a non-volatile memory. The non-volatile memory stores a plurality of valid and obsolete variables in a plurality of valid and obsolete regions, respectively. The system further includes a journal region to track movement of valid variables and valid regions within the memory buffer utilizing alternating pairs of structure pointers to indicate at least portions of the plurality of valid and obsolete regions indicative of from where and to where the valid variables move during a write event.
