Managing flash memory read operations
Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to a storage device and method of managing flash memory read operations of a storage device. In one embodiment, a method of retrieving information stored in a storage device comprises determining a timing of a next host read command for a flash memory die. If there is a storage device initiated read request for the flash memory die is determined. In response to an identification of the storage device initiated read request, a random cache read operation is initiated with the storage device initiated read request bound with the next host read command.
1. A method of retrieving information stored in a storage device, comprising:
determining a timing of a next host read command for a flash memory die;
identifying if there is a storage device initiated read request for the flash memory die; and
in response to an identification of the storage device initiated read request, initiating a random cache read operation with the storage device initiated read request bound with the next host read command.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the random cache read operation is first initiated with the storage device initiated read request.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising waiting to initiate the random cache read operation based upon the timing of the next host read command.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising in response to no identification of the storage device initiated read request, receiving a host read command for the flash memory die.
5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising initiating a second random cache read operation with the received host read command.
6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising determining a timing of a second next host read command for the flash memory die and binding the second next host read command with the received host read command into the second random cache read operation.
7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising waiting to initiate the second random cache read operation based upon the timing of the second next host read command.
8. A method of retrieving information stored in a storage device with an open cache read operation for a flash memory die, comprising:
determining a timing of completion of any outstanding read requests within the open cache read operation;
determining a timing of a next host read command for the flash memory die; and
executing the next host read command within the open cache read operation when the timing of the next host read command is not greater than a threshold.
9. A method of retrieving information stored in a storage device with an open cache read operation for a flash memory die, comprising:
determining a timing of completion of any outstanding read requests within the open cache read operation;
determining a timing of a next host read command for the flash memory die; and
executing the next host read command within a second open random cache read operation when the timing of the next host read command is greater than a threshold.
10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising terminating the open cache read operation after a determination of the timing of the next host read command is greater than the threshold.
11. A method of retrieving information stored in a storage device with an open cache read operation for a flash memory die, comprising:
determining a timing of completion of any outstanding read requests within the open cache read operation;
determining a timing of a next host read command for the flash memory die;
executing the next host read command within the open random cache read operation when the timing of the next host read command is greater than a threshold; and
executing a storage device initiated read request for the flash memory die within the open random cache read operation and within the timing of the next host read command.
12. A method of retrieving information stored in a storage device with an open cache read operation for a flash memory die, comprising:
determining a timing of completion of any outstanding read requests within the open cache read operation;
determining a timing of a next host read command for the flash memory die; and
executing the next host read command,
wherein the open cache read operation is maintained by one or more storage device initiated read requests executed within the open cache read operation during the timing of the next host read command.
13. A storage device, comprising:
a plurality of flash memory dies;
a controller comprising a host read command analyzer; and
a flash interface coupling the controller and the plurality of flash memory dies,
wherein the controller is operable to:
determine a timing of a next host read command to a particular flash memory die of the plurality of flash memories dies; and
use the timing of the next host read command of the particular flash memory die to initiate a random cache read operation.
14. A storage device, comprising:
a plurality of flash memory dies;
a controller comprising a host read command analyzer; and
a flash interface coupling the controller and the plurality of flash memory dies,
wherein the controller is operable to:
determine a timing of a next host read command to a particular flash memory die of the plurality of flash memories dies; and
use the timing of the next host read command of the particular flash memory die to maintain an open random cache read operation.
15. The storage device of claim 14 , wherein the timing is not greater than a threshold.
16. A storage device, comprising:
a plurality of flash memory dies;
a controller comprising a host read command analyzer; and
a flash interface coupling the controller and the plurality of flash memory dies,
wherein the controller is operable to:
determine a timing of a next host read command to a particular flash memory die of the plurality of flash memories dies; and
use the timing of the next host read command of the particular flash memory die to terminate a random cache read operation.
17. The storage device of claim 16 , wherein the timing is greater than a threshold.
18. A storage device, comprising:
a flash memory die;
a controller means; and
a flash interface coupling the controller means and the flash memory die,
wherein the controller means is operable to maintain an open cache read operation by initiating one or more storage device initiated requests along with a plurality of random cache read sequences.
19. The storage device of claim 18 , wherein the controller means comprises a host read command analyzer.
20. The storage device of claim 19 , wherein the host read command analyzer of the controller means utilizes machine learning.
21. The storage device of claim 18 , wherein the controller means is operable to determine one or more attributes of a particular next host read command to determine whether to terminate the open cache read operation.
22. The storage device of claim 21 , wherein a timing of the particular next host read command is determined by the controller means.
