A first operation identifier is assigned to a current operation directed to a memory component, the first operation identifier having a first entry in a first data structure that associates the first operation identifier with a first buffer identifier. It is determined whether the current operation collides with a prior operation assigned a second operation identifier, the second operation identifier having a second entry in the first data structure that associates the second operation identifier with a second buffer identifier. A latest flag is updated to indicate that the first entry is a latest operation directed to an address (1) in response to determining that the current operation collides with the prior operation and that the current and prior operations are read operations, or (2) in response to determining to determining that the current operation does not collide with a prior operation.

Systems and methods for read operations and management are disclosed. More specifically, this disclosure is directed to receiving a first read command directed to a first logical address and receiving, after the first read command, a second read command directed to a second logic address. The method also includes receiving, after the second read command, a third read command directed to a third logical address and determining that the first logical address and the third logical address correspond to a first physical address and a third physical address, respectively. The first physical address and the third physical address can be associated with a first word line of a memory component while the second logical address corresponds to a second physical address associated with a second word line of the memory component. The method includes executing the first read command and the third read command sequentially.

A memory system may include: a memory device having a plurality of banks, each comprising a memory cell region including a plurality of memory cells, and a page buffer unit; and a controller suitable for receiving a write address and write data from a host, and controlling a write operation of the memory device, wherein the controller comprises: a page buffer table (PBT) comprising fields to retain the same data as the page buffer units of the respective banks; and a processor suitable for comparing the write data to data stored in a field of the PBT, corresponding to the write address, and controlling the memory device to write the write data or the data stored in the page buffer unit to memory cells selected according to the write address, based on a comparison result.

A first operation identifier is assigned to a current operation directed to a memory component, the first operation identifier having a first entry in a first data structure that associates the first operation identifier with a first buffer identifier. It is determined whether the current operation collides with a prior operation assigned a second operation identifier, the second operation identifier having a second entry in the first data structure that associates the second operation identifier with a second buffer identifier. A latest flag is updated to indicate that the first entry is a latest operation directed to an address (1) in response to determining that the current operation collides with the prior operation and that the current and prior operations are read operations, or (2) in response to determining to determining that the current operation does not collide with a prior operation.

A method for improving write throughput of a storage device includes receiving a data access command targeting an LBA extent and determining that logical execution of the data access command includes reading or writing data logically across an identified high-performance-cost boundary. Responsive to the determination, the data access command is split into two or more separate data access commands that are separately queued in memory for execution.

Apparatus identifies a set of M output memory addresses from a larger set of N input memory addresses containing at least one non-unique memory address. A comparator block performs comparisons of memory addresses from a set of N input memory addresses to generate a binary classification dataset that identifies a subset of addresses from the set of input addresses, where each address in the subset identified by the binary classification dataset is unique within that subset. Combination logic units receive a predetermined selection of bits of the binary classification dataset and sort its received predetermined selection of bits into an intermediary binary string in which the bits are ordered into a first group identifying addresses belonging to the identified subset, and a second group identifying addresses not belonging to the identified subset. Output generating logic selects between bits belonging to different intermediary binary strings to generate a binary output identifying a set of output memory addresses containing at least one address in the identified subset.

A first operation identifier is assigned to a first operation directed to a memory component, the first operation identifier having an entry in a first data structure that associates the first operation identifier with a first plurality of buffer identifiers. It is determined whether the first operation collides with a prior operation assigned a second operation identifier, the second operation identifier having an entry in the first data structure that associates the second operation identifier with a second plurality of buffer identifiers. It is determined whether the first operation is a read or a write operation. In response to determining that the first operation collides with the prior operation and that the first operation is a read operation, the first plurality of buffer identifiers are updated with a buffer identifier included in the second plurality of buffer identifiers.

An example method for facilitating policy-driven storage in a microserver computing environment is provided and includes receiving, at an input/output (I/O) adapter in a microserver chassis having a plurality of compute nodes and a shared storage resource, policy contexts prescribing storage access parameters of respective compute nodes and enforcing the respective policy contexts on I/O operations by the compute nodes, in which respect a particular I/O operation by any compute node is not executed if the respective policy context does not allow the particular I/O operation. The method further includes allocating tokens to command descriptors associated with I/O operations for accessing the shared storage resource, identifying a violation of any policy context of any compute node based on availability of the tokens, and throttling I/O operations by other compute nodes until the violation disappears.
