Apparatuses, systems, and methods for hierarchical memory systems are described. An example method includes receiving a request to store data in a persistent memory device and a non-persistent memory device via an input/output (I/O) device; redirecting the request to store the data to logic circuitry in response to determining that the request corresponds to performance of a hierarchical memory operation; storing in a base address register associated with the logic circuitry, logical address information corresponding to the data responsive to receipt of the redirected request; asserting, by the logic circuitry, an interrupt signal on a hypervisor, the interrupt signal indicative of initiation of an operation to be performed by the hypervisor to control access to the data by the logic circuitry; and writing, based at least in part, on receipt of the redirected request, the data to the persistent memory device and the non-persistent memory device substantially concurrently.
