Patent ID: 11429533

Abstract:
A method of reducing FTL address mapping space, including: S1, obtaining a mpa and an offset according to a logical page address; S2, determining whether the mpa is hit in a cache; S3, determining whether a NAND is written into the mpa; S4, performing a nomap load operation, and returning an invalid mapping; S5, performing a map load operation; S6, directly searching a mpci representing a position of the mpa in the cache and searching a physical page address gppa with reference to the offset; S7, determining whether a mapping from a logical address to a physical address needs to be modified; S8, modifying a mapping table corresponding to the mpci in the cache, and marking a mp corresponding to the mpci as a dirty mp; S9, determining whether to trigger a condition of writing the mp into the NAND; and S10, writing the dirty mp into the NAND.
