Title: Memory instruction for memory tiers

Abstract

Various embodiments provide for one or more processor instructions and memory instructions that enable a memory sub-system to copy, move, or swap data across (e.g., between) different memory tiers of the memory sub-system, where each of the memory tiers is associated with different memory locations (e.g., different physical memory locations) on one or more memory devices of the memory sub-system.
