Abstract:
A first operation identifier is assigned to a first operation directed to a memory component, the first operation identifier having an entry in a first data structure that associates the first operation identifier with a first plurality of buffer identifiers. It is determined whether the first operation collides with a prior operation assigned a second operation identifier, the second operation identifier having an entry in the first data structure that associates the second operation identifier with a second plurality of buffer identifiers. It is determined whether the first operation is a read or a write operation. In response to determining that the first operation collides with the prior operation and that the first operation is a read operation, the first plurality of buffer identifiers are updated with a buffer identifier included in the second plurality of buffer identifiers.
