A control mechanism may be implemented in a back-end of a memory sub-system to refresh rows of a memory device. Rows of the memory device can be refreshed based on a quantity of times the rows have been updated in a duration of time. Rows of the memory device can also be updated based on a duration of time between receipt of the activation command for the row and a pre-charge command for the row. Row of the memory device clan further be updated utilizing a pair of counters that implement a ping pong mechanism to retain data between different consecutive durations of time.

Row tracking for row hammer mitigation

Methods and apparatus for pseudo-random hardware resource allocation through a plurality of hardware elements. In an embodiment, resource list entries are configured to each identify one hardware element of the plurality of hardware elements. Index list entries are configured to each identify one resource list entry. An index list pointer is set to identify a first index list entry of the plurality of index list entries, and hardware resources are requested from a first hardware element of the plurality of hardware elements by identifying, using the index list pointer, the first index list entry; identifying, using the first index list entry, a first resource list entry; selecting the hardware element identified by the first resource list entry as the first hardware element; and sending a request for hardware resources to the first hardware element.
