Storage backed memory package save trigger
Devices and techniques for a storage backed memory package save trigger are disclosed herein. Data can be received via a first interface. The data is stored in a volatile portion of the memory package. Here, the memory package includes a second interface arranged to connect a host to a controller in the memory package. A reset signal can be received at the memory package via the first interface. The data stored in the volatile portion of the memory package can be saved to a non-volatile portion of the memory package in response to the reset signal.
1. A memory package comprising:
a volatile portion;
a non-volatile portion;
an interface configured to:
receive data from a host; and
receive a reset signal; and
a processing device configured to save the data stored in the volatile portion in the non-volatile portion in response to a self-refresh mode of the memory package being enabled at a time of the reset signal.
2. The memory package of claim 1 , wherein the reset signal is received from the host.
3. The memory package of claim 1 , wherein the interface comprises a version four double data rate (DDR4) random-access memory (RAM) interface.
4. The memory package of claim 3 , wherein the reset signal is communicated by a pin corresponding to RESET_n as defined in a Joint Electron Device Engineering Council (JEDEC) family of standards for version four double data rate (DDR4).
5. The memory package of claim 1 , wherein the interface is a first interface, the memory package comprises a second interface configured to connect the host with the processing device, and the second interface comprises a bus that operates in accordance with an Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) family of standards.
6. A method comprising:
receiving, via an interface of a memory package, data from a host to store in a volatile portion of the memory package, the interface being configured to receive a reset signal;
determining a self-refresh mode of the memory package is enabled at a time of the reset signal; and
saving the data stored in the volatile portion of the memory package to a non-volatile portion of the memory package in response to determining that the self-refresh mode of the memory package is enabled at the time of the reset signal.
7. The method of claim 6 , comprising:
receiving, by the interface, the reset signal from the host.
8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the interface comprises a version four double data rate (DDR4) random-access memory (RAM) interface.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the reset signal is communicated by a pin corresponding to RESET_n as defined in a Joint Electron Device Engineering Council (JEDEC) family of standards for version four double data rate (DDR4).
10. The method of claim 6 , wherein the interface is a first interface, the memory package comprises a second interface configured to connect the host to a processing device in the memory package, the method is performed by the processing device, and the second interface comprises a bus that operates in accordance with an Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) family of standards.
11. At least one non-transitory machine readable medium including instructions, the instructions, when executed by a processing device of a memory package, cause the memory package to perform operations comprising:
receiving, via an interface of the memory package, data from a host to store in a volatile portion of the memory package, the interface being configured to receive a reset signal;
determining whether a self-refresh mode of the memory package is enabled at a time of the reset signal; and
saving the data stored in the volatile portion of the memory package to a non-volatile portion of the memory package in response to determining that the self-refresh mode of the memory package is enabled at the time of the reset signal.
12. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the interface comprises a version four double data rate (DDR4) random-access memory (RAM) interface.
13. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the reset signal is communicated by a pin corresponding to RESET_n as defined in a Joint Electron Device Engineering Council (JEDEC) family of standards for version four double data rate (DDR4).
14. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the interface is a first interface, the memory package comprises a second interface configured to connect the host to the processing device in the memory package, and the second interface comprises a bus that operates in accordance with an Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) family of standards.
15. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the operations comprise:
receiving, by the interface, the reset signal from the host.
