摘要： An external controller has greater control over control circuitry on a memory die in a non-volatile storage system. The external controller can issue a manual suspend command on a communication path which is constantly monitored by the control circuitry. In response, the control circuitry suspends a task immediately, with essentially no delay, or at a next acceptable point in the task. The external controller similarly has the ability to issue a manual resume command, which can be provided on the communication path when that path has a ready status. The control circuitry can also automatically suspend and resume a task. The external controller can cause a task to be suspended by issuing an illegal read command. The external controller can cause a suspended program task to be aborted by issuing a new program command.
摘要翻译：外部控制器对非易失性存储系统中的存储芯片上的控制电路具有更大的控制。外部控制器可以在由控制电路不断监视的通信路径上发出手动挂起命令。作为响应，控制电路基本上没有延迟或在任务的下一个可接受的点处立即暂停任务。外部控制器类似地具有发出手动恢复命令的能力，当该路径具有就绪状态时，可以在通信路径上提供手动恢复命令。控制电路还可以自动挂起和恢复任务。外部控制器可能会通过发出非法读取命令来暂停任务。通过发出新的程序命令，外部控制器可以导致暂停的程序任务中止。

摘要： A storage module and method for regulating garbage collection operations based on write activity of a host are disclosed. In one embodiment, a storage module determines whether the host is operating in a burst mode by determining whether write activity of the host over a time period exceeds a threshold. The write activity can comprise one or both of (i) an amount of data received from the host to be written in the storage module and (ii) a number of write commands received from the host. If the host is operating in the burst mode, the storage module limits an amount of garbage collection operations during the burst mode. When the host is no longer operating in the burst mode, the storage module increases an amount of garbage collection operations.
摘要翻译：公开了一种用于基于主机的写入活动来调节垃圾回收操作的存储模块和方法。在一个实施例中，存储模块通过确定主机在一段时间内的写入活动是否超过阈值来确定主机是否以突发模式操作。写入活动可以包括（i）从主机接收的待写入存储模块的数据量和（ii）从主机接收的多个写入命令中的一个或两个。如果主机以突发模式运行，则存储模块在突发模式期间限制垃圾收集操作的数量。当主机不再以突发模式运行时，存储模块增加垃圾收集操作的数量。

摘要： A storage module and method for identifying hot and cold data are provided. The storage module can be removable from a host or can be embedded in a host. In one embodiment, a request to store data in a logical block address (LBA) of a memory of the storage module is received. A physical block associated with the LBA is determined, and it is also determined whether the physical block stores hot or cold data. A last-known open block is then selected, wherein the last-known open block is either hot or cold depending on whether the physical block stores hot or cold data. If space is available in the last-known open block, the data is written to the last-known open block.

摘要： A storage device and method for reallocating storage device resources based on an estimated fill level of a host buffer are disclosed. In one embodiment, a storage device receives, from a host device, a rate at which the host device stores data in its buffer and tracks an amount of data that was received from the host device. The storage device estimates a fill level of the buffer at an elapsed time using the rate, the elapsed time, and the amount of data received from the host device over that elapsed time. If the estimated fill level of the buffer is above a threshold, the storage device increases a rate of receiving data from the host device.

摘要： A method and host device for packing and dispatching read and write commands are provided. In one embodiment, a host device receives commands from at least one application, wherein the commands include read commands and write commands. The host device stores the commands in the memory. The host device then selects the read commands from the memory and packs them together but separately from the write commands. The same thing is done for the write commands. The host device then sends the packed read commands and the packed write commands to the storage device. In another embodiment, the host device determines when to send the packed commands to the storage device based on at least one parameter.

摘要： A method is performed in a data storage device that includes a controller coupled to a non-volatile memory. The non-volatile memory includes a group of storage elements. Each storage element is configured to store multiple data bits. Data is sent from the controller to the non-volatile memory and first bits corresponding to a first portion of the data are stored into the group of storage elements during a first write stage. Each storage element of the group of storage elements stores at least one bit of the first bits upon completion of the first write stage. Second bits corresponding to a second portion of the data are sent to a second memory without sending the first bits to the second memory. The second bits are retrieved from the second memory and at least the second bits are stored into the group of storage elements during a second write stage.
