Abstract

A method for handling memory defects during the POST phase and memory calibration in single processor and multiprocessor information handling systems is disclosed whereby information regarding the location of a known memory defect is utilized to optimize the performance of an information handling system. Memory defects within system memory are identified and replaced during operation with error free memory space.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to the fields of computer systems and information handling systems, and more particularly to handling memory errors. Background technique [0002] As the value and use of information continue to increase, individuals and businesses are seeking other ways to process and store information. One option available to users is information handling systems. Information handling systems generally process, aggregate, store and / or transmit information and data for business, personal or other purposes, thereby enabling users to exploit the value of the information. Due to different technical and information processing needs and requirements among different users or applications, information handling systems may differ in the following aspects: the type of information processing; the method of processing information; the method of processing, storing or transmitting information; the processing , the amount of information st...
