Abstract: When copy commands are queued in a submission queue, there can potentially be many queued input-output (I/O) commands directed to the same logical range as the queued commands. This can result in data being invalidated immediately after it is written in memory, leading to write amplification and inefficient backend processing. To address this problem, the embodiments presented herein can be used to lock the range of logical block addresses of the queued commands, so that I/O commands are prevented from accessing the range of logical block addresses until the queued copy commands are completed.

Abstract: Memory devices and a memory controller that controls such memory devices. Multiple memory devices receive commands and addresses on a command/address (C/A) bus that is relayed point-to-point by each memory device. Data is received and sent from these devices to/from a memory controller in a point-to-point configuration by adjusting the width of each individual data bus coupled between the individual memory devices and the memory controller. Along with the C/A bus are clock signals that are regenerated by each memory device and relayed. The memory controller and memory devices may be packaged on a single substrate using package-on-package technology.

Wirebond connections provide a short, high-performance signaling environment for the chip-to-chip relaying of the C/A signals and clocks from one memory device to the next in the daisy-chain.

Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can provide a selectable action intent suggestion when a user is accessing a third party application that is controllable via the automated assistant. The action intent can be initialized by the user without explicitly invoking the automated assistant using, for example, an invocation phrase (e.g., “Assistant . . . ”). Rather, the user can initialize performance of the corresponding action by identifying one or more action parameters. In some implementations, the selectable suggestion can indicate that a microphone is active for the user to provide a spoken utterance that identifies a parameter(s). When the action intent is initialized in response to the spoken utterance from the user, the automated assistant can control the third party application according to the action intent and any identified parameter(s).

The suggestions can be rendered at a graphical user interface of a vehicle, and include content that, when spoken by a user, causes the automated assistant to initialize such actions. Actions that are suggested by the automated assistant can be performed by third-party applications that are different from a third-party application that is rendering the suggestion.
