Embodiment Construction

[0014] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0015] figure 2 It is a system block diagram for implementing multi-command queues of the NVME protocol. Compared with the implementation method of separately opening up space for command queues, the present invention stores all acquired commands in a unified command storage area; at the same time, open up space as a queue information table to save each command Information about the queue.

[0016] The relevant information of each command queue is stored in the q...

Abstract

The invention discloses a realizing method for NVME protocol multi-command queues. The method includes the steps that commands and queue information of the command queues are stored separately; uniform command storage caches are set to store the concrete commands corresponding to elements of all the command queues and queue numbers corresponding to the commands; a queue information table is set to store the queue information of all the queues existing at the Host end at present; when an SSD controller executes the concrete commands according to the sequence, the corresponding queue information is searched for from the queue information table according to the queue numbers corresponding to the concrete commands. The invention discloses a realizing system for the NVME protocol multi-command queues. As the commands are actively read from the command queues at the Host end, the uniform command storage areas are opened up in the controller to store the commands, and the command queue information is obtained by searching the table when the commands are executed; the realizing method has the advantages that few storage resources are consumed when one item of command queue support is added to a control chip, a large number of command queues can be supported, and IOPS can be improved greatly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to NVME protocol optimization, in particular to an implementation method and system for expanding the NVME protocol multi-command queue. Background technique [0002] NVME is a scalable host controller interface with PCIe SSDs designed for enterprise and client systems, including an optimized register interface and command set. Fundamentally speaking, NVME is an optimized queue interface. The host submits commands to the queue, and the queue completes the reading or writing of data, not in the order of the host command submission time. Moreover, it has a component dedicated to managing queues to complete operations such as queue creation, deletion, command termination, and security. In the existing solid-state drive control chip, the NVME protocol breaks the bottleneck of IOPS (Input / Output Operations Per Second, that is, the number of read and write (I / O) operations per second) due to its low latency, energy saving, and CPU perf...
