Abstract:
A host configured to interact with a storage device includes a write-back (WB) cache configured to write data to the storage device, a cache managing module configured to manage the WB cache, and a file system module configured to determine whether live blocks in victim segments among a plurality of segments stored in the storage device are stored in the WB cache, to read the live blocks from the storage device as a consequence of determining that the live blocks are not stored in the WB cache, to load the read live blocks to the WB cache, and to request the cache managing module to set dirty flags for the stored live blocks.
