Abstract

See full text

Control data for a device driver that is stored on a first non-volatile memory is updated by writing new driver control data to a second non-volatile memory. In an embodiment, the new driver control data may be stored on the second non-volatile memory without modifying the control data on the first non-volatile memory. In a further embodiment, a processor reads non-volatile from the first non-volatile memory into a system memory, reads supplemental driver control data from the second non-volatile memory, and updates the set of driver control data in the system memory based on the supplemental driver control data.
