A memory system is configured to be connected to a host. The memory system includes a non-volatile first memory, a second memory, and a controller configured to manage cache data stored in the second memory in units of a segment such that each segment includes a plurality of pieces of the cache data. Each of the plurality of pieces of the cache data includes mapping information which correlates a logical address value indicating a location in a logical address space provided by the memory system to the host with a location in the first memory. At least two pieces of the cache data are arranged in one segment without a space therebetween.

A method includes receiving a command to write data to a memory device and writing the data to a first memory tier of the memory device. The first memory tier of the memory device is a dynamic memory tier that utilizes single level cells (SLCs), multi-level cells (MLCs), and triple level cells (TLCs). The method further includes migrating the data from the first memory tier of the memory device to a second memory tier of the memory device. The second memory tier of the memory device is a static memory tier that utilizes quad level cells (QLCs).

A data storage device includes a memory device and a controller coupled to the memory device. The controller is configured to interact with a host device using Universal Flash Storage (UFS) interface protocols, provide a hint to the host device, switch between a first mode and a second mode, retrieve the data from the memory device, and deliver the data to the host device. The hint includes an indication of what order data will be received from the data storage device. The order of the data will be in a different order than a requested order after providing the hint.

A method and system for initiating a garbage collection request. Historical data representative of a level of initiated I/O requests is acquired. A first operational state and a second operational state are determined based on the historical data. The first operational state and second operational state are expressed in an indication of the level of initiated I/O requests to be processed. A number of currently initiated I/O requests is acquired. A determination is made as to whether the number of currently initiated I/O requests is indicative of the first operational state or the second operational state. If the computer system is in the first operational state, the garbage collection request is initiated.

An interface receives reported information from a system on chip (SOC), where the reported information includes: (1) hardware-reported information that is reported by a hardware functional module included in the SOC and (2) firmware-reported information that is reported by a firmware functional module included in the SOC. A processor receives one or more display settings and generates visual information based at least in part on: (1) the one or more display settings, (2) the hardware-reported information, and (3) the firmware-reported information. The visual information is displayed via a display.

A request can be provided, from a front-end of a memory sub-system, to a processing device of the memory sub-system and deleting the request from a buffer of the front-end of the memory sub-system. Responsive to deleting the request from the buffer, determining a first quantity of requests in the buffer and responsive to deleting the requests from the buffer, determining a second quantity of outstanding requests in the back-end of the memory sub-system. Responsive to deleting the request from the buffer and providing the request to the processing device, determining whether to provide a response to a host, wherein the response includes an indication of the quantity of requests in the buffer and of outstanding requests in a back-end of the memory sub-system, based on a comparison of the second quantity of outstanding requests to a threshold.

Apparatuses and methods related to command selection policy for electronic memory or storage are described. Commands to a memory controller may be prioritized based on a type of command, a timing of when one command was received relative to another command, a timing of when one command is ready to be issued to a memory device, or some combination of such factors. For instance, a memory controller may employ a first-ready, first-come, first-served (FRFCFS) policy in which certain types of commands (e.g., read commands) are prioritized over other types of commands (e.g., write commands). The policy may employ exceptions to such an FRFCFS policy based on dependencies or relationships among or between commands. An example can include inserting a command into a priority queue based on a category corresponding to respective commands, and iterating through a plurality of priority queues in order of priority to select a command to issue.

A request node is provided comprising request circuitry to issue write requests to write data to storage circuitry. The write requests are issued to the storage circuitry via a coherency node. Status receiving circuitry receives a write status regarding write operations at the storage circuitry from the coherency node and throttle circuitry throttles a rate at which the write requests are issued to the storage circuitry in dependence on the write status. A coherency node is also provided, comprising access circuitry to receive a write request from a request node to write data to storage circuitry and to access the storage circuitry to write the data to the storage circuitry. Receive circuitry receives, from the storage circuitry, an incoming write status regarding write operations at the storage circuitry and transmit circuitry transmits an outgoing write status to the request node based on the incoming write status.

Apparatuses and methods are provided for logic/memory devices. An example apparatus comprises a plurality of memory components adjacent to and coupled to one another. A logic component is coupled to the plurality of memory components. At least one memory component comprises a memory device having an array of memory cells and sensing circuitry coupled to the array. The sensing circuitry includes a sense amplifier and a compute component. Timing circuitry is coupled to the array and sensing circuitry and configured to control timing of operations for the sensing circuitry. The logic component comprises control logic coupled to the timing circuitry. The control logic is configured to execute instructions to cause the sensing circuitry to perform the operations.

The present disclosure provides a method for information storage and a system thereof, which adapts to a data storage system. A monitoring unit is configured to detecting and monitoring operations of a storage node in the data storage system to generate corresponding one and more monitoring data. A recording processor is configured to receiving the one or the plurality of monitoring data, and rendering one or a plurality of logs according to the difference of content of the one or the plurality of monitoring data. The adjustment mechanism is performed according to the stored logs, thereby the amount of large data generated during monitoring is effectively reduced.
