A storage system caches, in volatile memory, data read from non-volatile memory. After detecting an uncorrectable error in the data cached in the volatile memory, the storage system replaces the cached data with data re-read from the non-volatile memory and updated to reflect any changes made to the data after it was stored in the non-volatile memory. The storage system can also analyze a pattern in data adjacent to the uncorrectable error and predict corrected data based on the pattern.

Embodiments of this disclosure are directed towards a method of logging messages in a baseboard management controller (BMC) system. The method includes powering on a processing chip of the BMC system, wherein the processing chip has a main processor and a co-processor that is communicatively coupled to a non-transitory processor-readable memory device and snooping interface. The method further includes booting up the co-processor, and initiating a storage portion of the non-transitory processor-readable memory device the snooping interface. The method further includes triggering a boot-up of the main processor, and receiving, via the snooping interface, the messages redirected from a communication interface of the BMC system.

Disclosed is a system, and a method of using the system, that includes a memory component and a processing device. The processing device provides, to a host system, a failure notification that includes an indication of memory cell(s) of the memory device storing a data that was corrupted during a memory operation. The processing device then receives a replacement data from the host system. The replacement data is provided in response to the host system identifying a range of logical addresses corresponding to the corrupted data, based on geometric parameters of the memory device and the failure notification.

A method for managing a host memory buffer, a memory storage apparatus, and a memory control circuit unit are provided. The method includes: detecting whether a system abnormality occurs; copying a first command and first data corresponding to the first command stored in a data buffer of a host system to the memory storage apparatus in response to determining that the system abnormality occurs; executing an initial operation after copying the first command and the first data, wherein the initial operation initializes a part of a hardware circuit in the memory storage apparatus and does not initialize another part of the hardware circuit in the memory storage apparatus; and re-executing the first command stored in the memory storage apparatus after initializing the part of the hardware circuit.

A method of programming a nonvolatile memory device includes: receiving a programming command, data for a plurality of pages, and an address corresponding to a selected word-line; programming the data for one of the pages to an unselected word-line; reading data of a previously programmed page from the selected word-line; and programming the data for the remaining pages and the data of the previously programmed page to the selected word-line.

A Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) interface device coupled to an external device through a link including a plurality of lanes according to the present disclosure includes an EQ controller controlling the PCIe interface device to perform an equalization operation for determining a transmitter or receiver setting of each of the plurality of lanes, and an EQ information storage storing log information indicating a number of equalization operation attempts with respect to each of a plurality of EQ coefficients and storing error information about an error occurring in an LO state with respect to each of the plurality of EQ coefficients, which includes a transmitter coefficient or a receiver coefficient, wherein the EQ controller determines a final EQ coefficient using the log information and the error information.

Detecting execution hazards in offloaded operations is disclosed. A second offload operation is compared to a first offload operation that precedes the second offload operation. It is determined whether the second offload operation creates an execution hazard on an offload target device based on the comparison of the second offload operation to the first offload operation. If the execution hazard is detected, an error handling operation may be performed. In some examples, the offload operations are processing-in-memory operations.

Methods and processing devices are provided for error protection to support instruction replay for executing idempotent instructions at a processing in memory PIM device. The processing apparatus includes a PIM device configured to execute an idempotent instruction. The processing apparatus also includes a processor, in communication with the PIM device, configured to issue the idempotent instruction to the PIM device for execution at the PIM device and reissue the idempotent instruction to the PIM device when one of execution of the idempotent instruction at the PIM device results in an error and a predetermined latency period expires from when the idempotent instruction is issued.

A data processing system includes a system interconnect, a first master, and a bridge circuit. The bridge circuit is coupled between the first master and the system interconnect. The bridge circuit is configured to, in response to occurrence of an error in the first master, isolate the first master from the system interconnect, wherein the isolating by the bridge circuit is performed while the first master has one or more outstanding issued write commands to the system interconnect which have not been completed. The bridge circuit is further configured to, after isolating the first master from the system interconnect, complete the one or more outstanding issued write commands while the first master remains isolated from the system interconnect.

Embodiments are generally directed apparatuses, methods, techniques and so forth to select two or more processing units of the plurality of processing units to process a workload, and configure a circuit switch to link the two or more processing units to process the workload, the two or more processing units each linked to each other via paths of communication and the circuit switch.
