Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing efficient memory accesses for a computing system are disclosed. In various embodiments, a computing system includes a computing resource and a memory controller coupled to a memory device. The computing resource selectively generates a hint that includes a target address of a memory request generated by the processor. The hint is sent outside the primary communication fabric to the memory controller. The hint conditionally triggers a data access in the memory device. When no page in a bank targeted by the hint is open, the memory controller processes the hint by opening a target page of the hint without retrieving data. The memory controller drops the hint if there are other pending requests that target the same page or the target page is already open.

In various embodiments, a computing system includes one or more computing resources and a memory controller coupled to a memory device. The memory controller determines a memory access request targets a given bank of multiple banks.

The memory controller sets an idle cycle limit based on the page hit rate. The idle cycle limit is a maximum amount of time the given bank will be held open before closing the given bank while the bank is idle. The idle cycle limit is based at least in part on a page hit rate for the bank.
