SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFICATION OF MEMORY DEVICE BASED ON PHYSICAL UNCLONABLE FUNCTION
A system which identifies a memory device using a physical unclonable function. The system performs raw read operations on every page of a block; sorts the pages into low and high groups using an average number of ones based on the raw read operations; generates unordered page pairs by sequentially selecting a first page from the low group and a second page from the high group; generates ordered page pairs by selectively converting an order of pages in each pair of the unordered page pairs; and generates a sequence for identifying the selected block based on comparing the average number of ones for pages in each ordered page pair.
SNAPSHOT SHIPPING TO MULTIPLE CLOUD DESTINATIONS
An apparatus comprises at least one processing device configured to identify a snapshot lineage comprising snapshots of a storage volume, the snapshot lineage comprising (i) a local snapshot lineage stored on a storage system and (ii) cloud snapshot lineages stored on cloud storage external to the storage system, to select at least one snapshot that is to be copied from the local snapshot lineage, to determine at least two of the cloud snapshot lineages as destinations for the selected snapshot, to generate a snapshot copy job for copying the selected snapshot to the at least two cloud snapshot lineages, and to process the snapshot copy job by reading data of the selected snapshot stored in the local snapshot lineage once and writing the data of the selected snapshot to the at least two cloud snapshot lineages.
LOGIC REMAPPING TECHNIQUES
Methods, systems, and devices for logic remapping techniques are described. A memory system may receive a write command to store information at a first logical address of the memory system. The memory system may generate a first entry of a logical-to-physical mapping that maps the first logical address with a first physical address that stores the information. The memory system may perform a defragmentation operation or other remapping operation. In such a defragmentation operation, the memory system may remap the first logical address to a second logical address, such that the second logical address is mapped to the first physical address. The memory system may generate a second entry of a logical-to-logical mapping that maps the first logical address with the second logical address.
Pacing in a storage sub-system
One embodiment includes data communication apparatus including a storage sub-system to be connected to storage devices, and processing circuitry to manage transfer of content with the storage devices over the storage sub-system responsively to content transfer requests, while pacing commencement of serving of respective ones of the content transfer requests responsively to availability of spare data capacity of the storage sub-system, find a malfunctioning storage device currently assigned a given data capacity of the storage sub-system and currently assigned to serve at least one content transfer request, and reallocate the given data capacity of the storage sub-system currently assigned to the malfunctioning storage device for use by at least another one of the storage devices while the at least one content transfer request assigned to be served by the malfunctioning storage device is still awaiting completion by the malfunctioning storage device.
MEMORY CONTROLLER, MEMORY SYSTEM INCLUDING THE SAME, AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE MEMORY CONTROLLER
A memory controller for controlling a memory operation of a memory device includes: an error correction code (ECC) circuit configured to detect an error of first read data read from the memory device and correct the error; an error type detection logic configured to write first write data to the memory device, compare second read data with the first write data, detect an error bit of the second read data based on a result of the comparing, and output information about an error type identified by the error bit; and a data patterning logic configured to change a bit pattern of input data to reduce an error of the second read data based on the information about the error type.
ENVOY FOR MULTI-TENANT COMPUTE INFRASTRUCTURE
A data management and storage (DMS) cluster of peer DMS nodes manages data of a tenant of a multi-tenant compute infrastructure. The compute infrastructure includes an envoy connecting the DMS cluster to virtual machines of the tenant executing on the compute infrastructure. The envoy provides the DMS cluster with access to the virtual tenant network and the virtual machines of the tenant connected via the virtual tenant network for DMS services such as data fetch jobs to generate snapshots of the virtual machines. The envoy sends the snapshot from the virtual machine to a peer DMS node via the connection for storage within the DMS cluster. The envoy provides the DMS cluster with secure access to authorized tenants of the compute infrastructure while maintaining data isolation of tenants within the compute infrastructure.
MEMORY MODULE, COMPUTER, AND SERVER
A memory module is provided. The memory module includes: a control chip, at least one data flash memory chip, at least two memory cells, and at least one non-volatile memory, each of the at least one data flash memory chip is connected to at least one of the at least two memory cells and at least one of the at least one non-volatile memory, the control chip is connected to the at least one data flash memory chip and the at least two memory cells, and the memory is further connected to at least one capacitor; the control chip is configured to send a control command; and each of the at least one data flash memory chip is configured to perform, based on the control command from the control chip, data processing between the memory cell connected thereto and the non-volatile memory connected thereto.
MEMORY BUILT-IN SELF-TEST WITH AUTOMATED MULTIPLE STEP REFERENCE TRIMMING
A memory device can sense stored data during memory read operations using a reference trim, and a memory built-in self-test system can perform a multiple step process to set the reference trim for the memory device. The memory built-in self-test system can set a reference trim range that corresponds to a range of available reference trim values and then select one of the reference trim values in the reference trim range as the reference trim for the memory device. The memory built-in self-test system can set the reference trim range by prompting performance of the memory read operations using different positions of the reference trim range relative to read characteristics of the memory device and set a position for the reference trim range relative to the read characteristics of the memory device based on failures of the memory device to correctly sense the stored data during the memory read operations.
