Patent

CA 2643332

A flash driver can be used by file systems and other applications to determine more detailed attributes and properties, such as region geometry, that describe the underlying flash component. This allows a file system, for example, to be made aware of each flash region and its properties. The file system may then be optimized to more efficiently utilize the flash component. These optimizations may lead to increased component longevity and better read/write performance.

L'invention concerne un lecteur de mémoire flash pouvant être utilisé par des systèmes de fichiers et d'autres applications pour déterminer des attributs et des propriétés plus détaillés, comme la géométrie de région, qui décrivent le composant sous-jacent de mémoire flash. Ceci permet à un système de fichiers, par exemple, d'être informé de chaque région de mémoire flash et de ses propriétés. Le système de fichiers peut ensuite être optimisé pour utiliser plus efficacement le composant de mémoire flash. Les optimisations peuvent conduire à une longévité accrue du composant et à de meilleures performances de lecture/écriture.
