Methods, systems, and devices for initializing memory systems are described. A memory system may transmit, to a host system over a first channel, signaling indicative of a first set of values for a set of parameters associated with communicating information over a second channel between a storage device of the memory system and a memory device of the memory system. The host system may transmit, to the memory system, additional signaling associated with the first set of values for the set of parameters. For instance, the host system may transmit a second set of values for the set of parameters, an acknowledgement to use the first set of values, or a command to perform a training operation on the second channel to identify a second set of values for the set of parameters. The memory system may communicate the information over the second channel based on the additional signaling.

Methods, systems, and devices for sense timing coordination are described. In some systems, to sense the logic states of memory cells, a memory device may generate an activation signal and route the activation signal over a signal line (e.g., a dummy word line) located at a memory array level of the memory device to one or more sense amplifiers. Based on receiving the activation signal, a sense amplifier may latch and determine the logic state of a corresponding memory cell. A first sense amplifier may sense a state of a first memory cell at a first time and a second sense amplifier may sense a state of a second memory cell at a second time in response to the same activation signal due to a propagation delay of the activation signal routed over the signal line (e.g., and corresponding to a propagation delay for activating a word line).

Systems, apparatuses, and methods related to a computer system having a page table entry containing security settings for calls from predefined domains are described. The page table entry can be used to map a virtual memory address to a physical memory address. In response to a call to execute a routine identified using the virtual memory address, a security setting corresponding to the execution domain from which the call initiates can be extracted from the page table entry to determine whether a security measure is to be used. For example, a shadow stack structure can be used to protect the private stack content of the routine from being access by a caller and/or to protect the private stack content of the caller from being access by the callee.

Methods, systems, and devices for speculative memory section selection are described. Defective memory components in one memory section may be repaired using repair components in another memory section. Speculative selection of memory sections may be enabled, whereby access lines in multiple memory sections may be selected when a memory command indicating an address in one memory section is received. While the access lines in the multiple memory sections are selected, a determination of whether repair components in another memory section are to be accessed is performed. Based on the determination, the access line in one of the memory sections may be maintained and the access lines in the other memory sections may be deselected.

The method may further include adjusting a row hammer refresh rate for the at least one memory bank based on the amount of activity associated with the at least one memory bank.
