Zusammenfassung:Techniques and mechanisms for providing communications which facilitate link training are disclosed. In an embodiment, a memory controller includes, or couples to, trainer circuitry which is configured to provide instructions to generate memory access commands. The instructions are accessed at the circuitry in response to an indication that link training is performed, where the accessing is independent of communication with a processor coupled to the memory controller. Based on the instructions, memory access commands are communicated via a link between the memory controller and a memory device. Link training is performed based on an evaluation of one or more characteristics of the link communications. In another embodiment, memory access commands are generated, based on the instructions,while a validity of data at the memory device is maintained. 用于提供促进链路训练的通信的技术和机制。在实施例中,存储器控制器包括或耦合到训练器电路,所述训练器电路被配置为提供指令以生成存储器访问命令。响应于关于执行链路训练的指示在电路处访问指令,其中,访问独立于与耦合到存储器控制器的处理器的通信。基于指令,经由在存储器控制器和存储器设备之间的链路传送存储器访问命令。基于对链路通信的一个
