Abstract: A system having a processing device and a controller, operatively connected to a memory sub-system via a communication channel, to: store information identifying an amount of available capacity of a buffer of the memory sub-system; transmit, through the communication channel to the memory sub-system, one or more write commands to store data in memory components of the memory sub-system, where the memory sub-system queues the one or more write commands in the buffer; update the information by deducting, from the amount of available capacity, an amount of buffer capacity used by the one or more write commands to generate a current amount of available capacity of the buffer; and determine whether to calculate an information request to the memory sub-system based at least in part on the current amount of available capacity.

Abstract: A first command is scheduled on a command bus, where the first command requires use of a data bus resource at a first time period after scheduling the first command. Prior to the first time period, a second command is identified according to a scheduling policy. A determination is made whether scheduling the second command on the command bus will cause a conflict in usage of the at least one data bus resource. In response to determining that scheduling the second command will cause the conflict in usage, a third lower-priority command is identified for which scheduling on the command bus will not cause the conflict in usage. The third command is scheduled on the command bus prior to scheduling the second command, even though it has lower priority than the second command.
