    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for memory device security and row hammer mitigation are described. A control mechanism may be implemented in a front-end and/or a back-end of a memory sub-system to refresh rows of the memory. A row activation command having a row address at control circuitry of a memory sub-system and incrementing a first count of a row counter corresponding to the row address stored in a content addressable memory (CAM) of the memory sub-system may be received. Control circuitry may determine whether the first count is greater than a row hammer threshold (RHT) minus a second count of a CAM decrease counter (CDC); the second count may be incremented each time the CAM is full. A refresh command to the row address may be issued when a determination is made that the first count is greater than the RHT minus the second count.

    Abstract: A method includes receiving, at a direct memory access (DMA) controller of a memory device, a first command from a first cache controller coupled to the memory device to prefetch first data from the memory device and sending the prefetched first data, in response to receiving the first command, to a second cache controller coupled to the memory device. The method can further include receiving a second command from a second cache controller coupled to the memory device to prefetch second data from the memory device, and sending the prefetched second data, in response to receiving the second command, to a third cache controller coupled to the memory device.

    Abstract: Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems include detecting an operation to write dirty data to a cache. The cache is divided into a plurality of channels. In response to the operation, the dirty data is written to a first cache line in the cache, the first cache line being accessed via a first channel. Additionally, a redundant copy of the dirty data is written to a second cache line in the cache. The second cache line serves as a redundant write buffer and is accessed via a second channel, the first and second channels differing from one another. A metadata entry for the second cache line is updated to reference a location of the dirty data in the first cache line.

    Abstract: The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods related to a cache buffer. An example apparatus can store data associated with a request in one of a number of buffers and service a subsequent request for data associated with the request using the one of the number of buffers. The subsequent request can be serviced while the request is being serviced by the cache controller.
