8. A method, comprising:
-
storing, in a non-volatile buffer formed from a non-volatile memory technology, one or more signals and/or states comprising a memory operation communicated by a processor, wherein the memory operation is addressed to an off-chip non-volatile memory device; and communicating to the processor a completion of the memory operation at least in part in response to the storing the one or more signals and/or states comprising the memory operation in the non-volatile buffer. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
