  • Patent number: 11663133
    Abstract: A processing device in a host system monitors a data temperature of a plurality of memory pages stored in a host-addressable region of a cache memory component operatively coupled with the host system. The processing device determines that a first memory page of the plurality of memory pages satisfies a first threshold criterion pertaining to the data temperature of the first memory page and sends a first migration command indicating the first memory page to a direct memory access (DMA) engine executing on a memory-mapped storage component operatively coupled with the cache memory component and with the memory-mapped storage component via a peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) bus. The first migration command causes the DMA engine to initiate a first DMA transfer of the first memory page from the cache memory component to a host-addressable region of the memory-mapped storage component.

  • Patent number: 11630594
    Abstract: A graph can be generated based on an access pattern associated with blocks of a memory device that have been accessed by a host system, wherein the graph comprises nodes representing at least a subset of the blocks that have been accessed by the host system and edges that are based on the access pattern, wherein each edge is associated with a respective probability value between a respective pair of nodes. A number of edges having respective probability values that satisfy a probability value threshold criterion can be determined. It can be determined whether the number of edges satisfies a decayed edge value condition. In response to determining that the number of edges does not satisfy the decayed edge value condition, the graph can be removed.

  • Patent number: 11568077
    Abstract: An access request is received. The access request comprises a physical page address corresponding to a primary memory block of a memory device, an input security key, and a logical page address corresponding to the physical page address. The input security key is provided as input to a (CAM) block that stores a plurality of security keys to verify that the input security key matches a stored security key. A location of the stored security key is checked to verify that it corresponds to the logical page address included in the access request based a predetermined mapping.
