Logical-to-physical map synchronization in a memory device

Abstract:

Devices and techniques for logical-to-physical (L2P) map (e.g., table) synchronization in a managed memory device are described herein. For example, a plaintext portion of an L2P map may be updated in a managed memory device. In response to updating the plaintext portion of the L2P map, the updated portion can be obfuscated to create an obfuscated version of the updated portion of the L2P map. Both the updated portion and the obfuscated version of the updated portion can be saved in storage of the memory device. When a request from a host for the updated portion of the L2P map is received, the memory device can provide the obfuscated version of the portion from the storage.
