Accelerated read translation path in memory sub-system

Abstract:

A processing device includes a system tag data structure to store a system tag that includes a logical transfer unit (LTU) identifier corresponding to an LTU, which includes a subset of a plurality of sequential logical block addresses (LBAs) that includes an LBA of a read request, and a mapping data structure that maps a zone of LBA space to physical address space. Hardware logic is to: retrieve the LTU identifier from the system tag; determine a zone identifier (ID) based on the LTU identifier; index, using at least one of the zone ID or the LTU identifier, into the mapping data structure to retrieve metadata that specifies a mapping between the LTU identifier and a physical address of the physical address space; and store the metadata in the system tag data structure in association with the system tag.
