Dynamic host memory allocation to a memory controller
Technology is described herein for operating non-volatile storage. One aspect is an apparatus that dynamically changes an allocation of host memory that is for the exclusive use of a non-volatile memory controller. The non-volatile memory controller may make a runtime request for additional host memory that is for the exclusive use of the non-volatile memory controller. The non-volatile memory controller might use the additional host memory for a task such as garbage collection, and then release the host memory back to the host.
