Abstract

Various embodiments enable versioning of data stored on a memory device, where the versioning allows the memory device to maintain different versions of data within a set of physical memory locations (e.g., a row) of the memory device. In particular, some embodiments provide for a memory device or a memory sub-system that uses versioning of stored data to facilitate a rollback operation/behavior, a checkpoint operation/behavior, or both. Additionally, some embodiments provide for a transactional memory device or a transactional memory sub-system that uses versioning of stored data to enable rollback of a memory transaction, commitment of a memory transaction, or handling of a read or write command associated with respect to a memory transaction.
