Abstract

Memory access control, as described herein, can leverage persistent memory to store data that is generally stored in a non-persistent memory. An example method for memory access control can include receiving, by control circuitry resident on a memory device, a memory access request targeting an address of a volatile (e.g., non-persistent) memory component of the memory device and determining characteristics of data associated with the targeted address. The method can further include accessing data at the targeted address of the volatile memory component in response to determining that the characteristics of the data meet a first criterion and accessing data at another address of a non-volatile memory component in response to determining that the characteristics of the data meet a second criterion.
