Abstract: Provided is a semiconductor device and a semiconductor system. A semiconductor device can include a command priority policy manager circuit which generates command priority policy information including a command priority compliance policy for a command directed to a device. A host interface circuit can be coupled to the command priority policy manager circuit to receive the command priority policy information from the command priority policy manager circuit, where the host interface circuit operable to transmit the command priority policy information via an electrical interface to the device.

Abstract: A method of operating a storage device includes receiving, at the storage device, a meta information transfer command based on a data read request. The meta information transfer command is received from a host device. The method further includes receiving, at the storage device, a data read command corresponding to the data read request and the meta information transfer command. The data read command is received from the host device. The method further includes receiving, at the storage device, a plurality of meta data corresponding to the data read request and the meta information transfer command. The plurality of meta data is received from the host device. The method further includes performing a data read operation, at the storage device, based on the data read command and the plurality of meta data.

Abstract: A storage system includes a host device and a storage device. The host device generates a write command, a logical address of write data corresponding to the write command, and a selective purge tag indicating that the write data are targeted for selective purge. The storage device receives the write command, the logical address, and the selective purge tag, stores write data, and logically erases the stored write data upon receiving an erase command from the host device. In addition, the storage device physically erases the stored write data upon receiving a selective purge request from the host device.

Abstract: An operating method of a storage device that includes a nonvolatile memory device and a controller configured to control the nonvolatile memory device includes sending map data from the storage device to a host device, the map data mapping one or more of a plurality of physical addresses of the nonvolatile memory device to one or more of a plurality of logical addresses of the host device; receiving, at the storage device, a read request from the host device; if the read request includes a physical address, reading data from the nonvolatile memory device based on the included physical address; and if the read request does not include a physical address, translating a logical address of the read request into a first physical address, and reading data from the nonvolatile memory device based on the translated first physical address.

Abstract: Provided is a storage device which communicates with a host device and configured to set a secure mode of a plurality of commands different in kind. An operating method of the storage device includes receiving a secure request indicating a protection of a first command and a protection of a second command of the plurality of commands, from the host device; setting a secure mode of the first and second commands, based on the secure request; receiving a first request indicating a request to execute the first command, from the host device; outputting a first response indicating failure of the first command to the host device, based on the first request; receiving a second request indicating a request to execute the second command, from the host device; and outputting a second response indicating failure of the second command to the host device, based on the second request.

Abstract: A storage device that includes a nonvolatile memory device is described. The storage device includes areas and a controller. The controller receives a write command and data from an external host device. The controller then preferentially writes the data in an area associated with a turbo write based on a turbo write policy, or in an area not associated with a turbo write based on a normal write policy. The controller also receives a move command from the external host device and moves data stored in the area to a different area based on the move command.
