Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for improving the read-write performance of the NAND flash memory. The method includes searching a deleted file in the NAND flash memory during system initialization; determining the logical address of the deleted file; and deleting the logical-to-physical mapping relation corresponding to the logical address in the NAND flash translation layer (NFTL) and enabling the physical block corresponding to the logical address to become a free block. According to the method and the device, the NFTL can obtain free physical blocks timely during frequent file deleting and recopying processes, and the read-write performance and the service life of the NAND flash memory can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of reading and writing of embedded system memory, in particular to a method and device for improving the reading and writing performance of NAND flash memory. Background technique [0002] Most of the storage devices used in current portable electronic products, such as mobile phones and walkmans, are flash memory, also known as flash memory. Flash memory is non-volatile memory that can be erased and reprogrammed in blocks of memory cells called blocks. The write operation of any flash device can only be performed in empty or erased cells, so in most cases, the erase operation must be performed before the write operation. Due to this feature of the flash memory, traditional file systems, such as FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, ext2, etc., cannot directly work on the flash memory. [0003] In the prior art, for NAND flash memory (NAND flash Memory), NFTL (NAND Flash Translation Layer, NAND flash translation layer) is u...
