Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for requesting ready status information from a memory. One example apparatus includes a memory and a host coupled to the memory. The host is configured to provide a plurality of memory access requests to the memory, to request ready status information regarding whether the memory is ready to execute a memory access request of the plurality of memory access requests, and to request execution of the memory access request responsive to the ready status information.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods related to memory operations on data. An example method can include executing an operation by writing a first managed unit to a second managed unit, and placing the first managed unit in a free state, wherein the first managed unit is located at a particular distance from the second managed unit.

Abstract: An example apparatus includes a hybrid memory system to couple to a host and a controller coupled to the hybrid memory system. The controller may be configured to assign a sensitivity to a command and cause the command to be selectively diverted to the hybrid memory system based, at least in part, on the assigned sensitivity.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods for command queuing. A number of embodiments include receiving a queued command request at a memory system from a host, sending a command response from the memory system to the host that indicates the memory system is ready to receive a command in a command queue of the memory system, and receiving, in response to sending the command response, a command descriptor block for the command at the memory system from the host.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods for providing energy information to memory. An embodiment includes determining, by a host, that a charge level of an energy source coupled to the host has reached or exceeded a threshold value, and transmitting, from the host to a memory device coupled to the host, signaling indicative of an energy mode for the memory device, wherein the signaling is transmitted based at least in part on determining that the charge level of the energy source has reached or exceeded the threshold.

Abstract: A memory device includes a memory array having non-volatile memory cells, and a memory controller configured to detect a known state to enter based, at least in part, on communication with a host device, and reconfigure the memory device to prepare for the known state. A host controller is configured to communicate with the memory device to support a feature and protocol for detecting the known state for operation of the memory device. Related methods and systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: A controller of a memory device controls placement of data blocks by receiving, from a host electronic device, one or more commands of a memory system protocol. The commands include a write command with blocks of data to be stored in the memory device and contextual file system data for the blocks of data. The contextual file system data includes file metadata, file attributes, or both that identify an association of the one or more blocks of data with a file. The file is made up of the one or more blocks of data. The controller identifies the association of the one or more blocks of data with the file and executes the one or more commands, such that the one or more blocks of data are stored in the memory device with a placement based upon the association
