Where can I find good documentation describing memory-rank "sparing" (for computer-hardware memory-protection configurations)? I'm seeking to clarify what benefits it provides and how it's typically implemented.
I'd prefer vendor-neutral documentation. Have had trouble finding quality docs thus far.
There's an HP patent on "Rank sparing system and method" that might be your best bet.
I know, links to answers aren't great, but I don't think I'll be able to summarize the patent enough to be useful.
