Original Abstract Submitted

The disclosed computing device includes a cache memory and at least one processor coupled to the cache memory. The at least one processor is configured to copy data written to one or more nonredundant wordlines of the cache memory to one or more redundant wordlines of the cache memory. The at least one processor is additionally configured to detect a mismatch between data read from the one or more nonredundant wordlines and data stored in the one or more redundant wordlines. The at least one processor is also configured to perform a remediation action in response to detecting the mismatch. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
