Systems and methods for journaling and executing device control instructions

摘要

A constrained computing device is provided. The constrained computing device includes a memory, a processor coupled to the memory, and a journaling component executed by the processor in kernel mode. The journaling component is configured to receive information descriptive of a device control, allocate, in the memory, a variable record structured according to a variable definition associated with the device control, store the information within the variable record, receive updated information descriptive of the device control, allocate, in the memory, an update record structured according to an update variable definition, store the updated information within the update record, and link the variable record to the update record.
