Abstract:
A storage system in one embodiment comprises a host processor that includes a first non-volatile memory. The storage system further comprises a storage device that is coupled to the host processor. A designated portion of the first non-volatile memory is bound to the storage device responsive to storage of binding information in at least one partition table associated with the first non-volatile memory. The storage device may include a storage controller that includes a configuration register space. The binding information may be copied from the one or more partition tables to the configuration register space in conjunction with a boot operation of the host processor. The host processor illustratively comprises a storage device driver having access to the binding information copied to the configuration register space of the storage device. The storage device driver may be configured to utilize the designated portion of the first non-volatile memory that is bound to the storage device as a write back cache.

Claim (Index 15):
A method comprising:\n associating at least one partition table with a first non-volatile memory of a host processor of a storage system; and binding a designated portion of the first non-volatile memory to a storage device of the storage system responsive to storage of binding information in the partition table associated with the first non-volatile memory; wherein at least a portion of the binding information is copied from the one or more partition tables to a configuration register space of a storage controller of the storage device in conjunction with a boot operation of the host processor; and wherein a storage device driver of the host processor is configured to access the binding information copied to the configuration register space of the storage controller of the storage device in order to determine at least a base address and a limit for the designated portion of the first non-volatile memory that is bound to the storage device.
