Memory device access techniques

Methods, systems, and devices for memory device access techniques are described. Memory systems may be enabled to allow device-controlled access to a portion of volatile memory at a host system. By enabling the memory system to access volatile memory at the host system, the memory system may perform access operations which may reduce a quantity of messages exchanged between the memory system to the host system. The host system may allocate a list of memory resources in volatile memory associated with a first access command. The host system may allocate the same memory resources for a second access command. By allocating the same memory resources, the memory device may transmit a Ready To Transfer (RTT) message for multiple access commands, rather than for each command. In some cases, reducing the quantity of RTT messages may reduce latency and improve performance at the memory system.
