Abstract
A controller selects a redundancy context for eviction in response to a request for a redundancy context. The redundancy context includes buffer data and an identifier. The redundancy context is evicted by instructing a redundancy component to send the buffer data and identifier to a memory component to store in a buffer as an evicted context. The controller instructs the memory component to provide the evicted context for storage in a controller buffer. A new redundancy context is allocated to the requester following the eviction.
