Abstract

Implementations described herein relate to indicating a status of the memory built-in self-test for multiple memory device ranks. A memory device may read one or more bits, associated with a memory built-in self-test, that are stored in a mode register of the memory device. The memory device may identify a first data mask inversion (DMI) bit of the memory device that is associated with a first rank of the memory device and a second DMI bit of the memory device that is associated with a second rank of the memory device. The memory device may set the first DMI bit to a first value based on determining to perform the memory built-in self-test for the first rank of the memory device. The memory device may perform the memory built-in self-test for the first rank of the memory device based on setting the first DMI bit to the first value.
