I think this entire design approach is on its way out. It turns out that the DIMM protocol was very much designed for volatile RAM, and shoehorning anything else in involves changes through a bunch of the stack (CPU, memory controller, DIMMs), which are largely proprietary and were never intended to support complex devices from other vendors according to published standards. Sure, every CPU and motherboard attempts to work with every appropriately specced DIMM, but that doesn’t mean that the same “physical” bits land in the same DRAM cells if you change your motherboard. Beyond interoperability issues, the entire cache system on most CPUs was always built on the assumption that, if the power fails, the contents of memory do not need to retain any well-defined values. Intel had several false starts trying to build a reliable mechanism to flush writes all the way to the DIMM.
Instead the industry seems to be moving toward CXL for fancy memory-like-but-not-quite-memory. CXL is based on PCIe, and it doesn’t have these weird interoperability and caching issues. Flushing writes all the way to PCIe has never been much of a problem, since basically every PCI or PCIe device ever requires a mechanism by which host software can communicate all the way to the device without the IO getting stalled in some buffer on the way.
