Abstract

See full text

A method of memory controller-independent memory mirroring includes providing a mirroring association between a first memory segment and a second memory segment that is independent of a memory controller. A memory buffer receives data from the memory controller that is directed to a first memory location in the first memory segment. The memory buffer writes the data, independent of the memory controller, to both the first memory segment and the second memory segment according to the mirroring association. The memory buffer receives a plurality of read commands from the memory controller that are directed to the first memory location in the first memory segment and, in response, reads data from an alternating one of the first memory segment and the second memory segment and stores both first data from the first memory segment and second data from the second memory segment.
