Abstract:
A memory device includes a nonvolatile memory and a memory controller. The memory controller receives first data from a host file system; stores the first data in a first physical block of the nonvolatile memory identified by a first physical page number (PPN); associates the first PPN with a first virtual page number (VPN); and communicates the first VPN to the host file system in response to receiving the first data.
Abstract:
A memory device controller includes a main processor and a sequencer. The sequencer is configured to: estimate a time interval required to complete execution of a set of atom commands allocated to a channel of a non-volatile memory; calculate, for each of the plurality of atom commands, an urgency value associated with completing execution of a corresponding memory command after expiration of the time interval required to complete execution of the set of atom commands allocated to the channel; schedule each of the plurality of atom commands in the set of atom commands for execution by the non-volatile memory based on the calculated urgency values; and output the plurality of atom commands to the non-volatile memory for execution in the scheduled order.
Abstract:
A method of operating a storage device including a nonvolatile memory can be provided by receiving, from a host, address change information including changing logical addresses for data to be stored in the nonvolatile memory. Physical addresses can be sequentially allocated to the changing logical addresses included in the address change information to provide a first journal. A portion of at least one physical address allocated to the changing logical addresses can be removed to provide a second journal and the second journal can be stored in the nonvolatile memory.
Abstract:
A memory system includes a table storing a plurality of entries, where each entry is associated with a different logical block address (LBA), a plurality of memory devices, channels, and ways, where each memory device is connected to one of the channels ways and to one of the ways, and a memory controller configured to receive an LBA and data from a host, execute a plurality of pseudo-random functions on the received LBA to generate a plurality of slot indexes, select one of the slot indexes, write the data to one of the memory devices identified by the selected one slot index, and update a corresponding one of the entries to include the selected one slot index.
