Abstract:
In various examples, device comprises a memory and a memory controller. The memory controller comprises a write tracking buffer. The memory controller to: receive a write request bound for the memory, store an entry associated with the write request in the write tracking buffer, and determine an access pattern of the memory. The access pattern indicates a high or a low write bandwidth of the memory. The memory controller to execute the write request bound for the memory based on the determined memory access pattern, complete execution of the write request, and responsive to completing execution of the write request, free the entry associated with the write request from the write tracking buffer.
