Thermal management of storage devices increasing host write performance

1. A storage device, comprising:

a plurality of dies each comprising a plurality of memory locations, corresponding memory locations from each die forming an addressable group such that a plurality of addressable groups traverse the plurality of dies; and

a controller in thermal communication with each of the dies and configured to:

detect an excess temperature on at least one of the dies while performing sequential host writes;

disable all writes to the at least one detected die while continuing to perform writes to the memory locations of the other dies corresponding to one or more of the addressable groups; and

reactivate writes to the at least one detected die when the temperature drops below a threshold.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to continue performing the host writes to the other dies at a maximum capacity while the at least one detected die is disabled.

3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to continue performing the host writes to the other dies while the at least one detected die is disabled without throttling the other dies.

4. The device of claim 1 , further comprising an infrastructure module configured to communicate thermal information to the controller, wherein the infrastructure module identifies the at least one die having the excess temperature.

5. The device of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to execute a function at a flash translation layer (FTL) to disable the writes to the at least one detected die.

6. The device of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to update thermal information of the at least one detected die in a thermal mapping table.

7. The device of claim 6 , wherein the controller is further configured to update the thermal mapping table when the temperature drops below the threshold.

8. The device of claim 6 , wherein in response to a relocation responsive to a thermal write disable operation, the controller is configured to perform the relocation and update the thermal mapping table.

9. The device of claim 8 , wherein the controller is configured, based on the updated thermal mapping table, to perform a find last good page (FLGP) action in a recovery after an ungraceful shutdown (UGSD) event.

10. A storage device, comprising:

a plurality of dies each comprising n sets of memory locations, a corresponding one of the n sets from each die coupled together to form one meta-set of n meta-sets, each meta-set comprising a maximum addressable unit of a host input/output (I/O) operation; and

a controller in thermal communication with each of the dies and configured to:

detect an excess temperature on at least one of the dies while performing a sequence of host writes;

disable all writes to the detected at least one die while continuing the host writes to the other dies in the corresponding one or more of the n meta-sets; and

re-activate writes to the detected at least one die when the temperature drops below a threshold.

11. The device of claim 10 , wherein the controller is configured to continue performing the host writes to the other dies at full capacity while the at least one detected die is disabled.

12. The device of claim 10 , wherein the controller is configured to continue performing the host writes to the other dies without throttling the other dies while the at least one detected die is disabled.

13. The device of claim 10 , wherein during a disabled state of the at least one detected die, the controller is configured to disable writes to the memory locations in the sets corresponding to the at least one detected die while executing host writes without throttling to memory locations in the other sets on other dies within one or more of the n meta-sets.

14. The device of claim 10 , further comprising an infrastructure module configured to communicate thermal information to the controller, wherein the infrastructure module identifies the at least one die having the excess temperature.

15. The device of claim 14 , wherein the controller is further configured to update thermal information of the at least one detected die in a thermal mapping table.

16. The device of claim 15 , wherein the controller is further configured to update the thermal mapping table when the temperature drops below the threshold.

17. A storage device, comprising:

a plurality of dies each comprising a memory location forming one of a plurality of selectively addressable pages;

a controller coupled to each of the plurality of dies and configured to:

perform a host write operation to one or more pages;

detect an excess temperature on at least one of the dies;

disable, responsive to the detection, all writes to the detected at least one die while continuing to perform writes to the memory locations of the other dies; and

reactivate writes to the detected at least one die when the temperature drops below a threshold.

18. The device of claim 17 , wherein the controller is further configured to continue performing writes to the memory locations of the other dies at a same write speed as prior to the detection of the excess temperature.

19. The device of claim 17 , wherein the controller is further configured to continue performing writes to the memory locations of the other dies without throttling.

20. The device of claim 17 , wherein the controller is further configured to reactivate the writes to the detected die at a same speed as the writes to the other dies in the one or more pages.
