Embodiment Construction

[0042] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the present invention, not to limit the present invention.

[0043] Such as figure 1As shown, the SSD consists of a series of flash memory arrays. There are multiple flash memory controllers (nfc) inside the SSD. Each flash memory controller controls a channel (channel). The flash memory controllers work independently, and each channel has its own channel. Bus; multiple flash memory chips (chips) are mounted on each channel. figure 2 For the internal structure of the chip, each flash memory chip is composed of multiple wafers (die); each wafer is composed of multiple groups (plane); each group has multiple blocks (block), and the block is erased by the fl...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving read performance of an SSD (Solid State Drive) during a junk recovery period. The method comprises the steps that an RAID is established among channels by taking data pages as stripes; when a read request is processed, if a die in which the data page accessed by the read request is located is not being subjected to erasure operation, the read request makes a response normally at the moment; and if the die in which the data page accessed by the read request is located is being occupied by the erasure operation, the die is out operation briefly, and at the moment, data of other data pages on the same stripe is read by utilizing the RAID among the channels to perform RAID re-establishment, thereby making a response to the read request in time. According to the method, the system time delay caused by the junk recovery operation in a solid-state storage device based on an NAND Flash is shortened by utilizing the RAID technology in the SSD, so that the problem of a conflict between the normal read request of a system and the junk recovery erasure operation is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solid state disk (SSD) read and write performance control, and in particular relates to a method for improving the read performance of SSD during garbage collection. Background technique [0002] In recent years, NAND Flash-based solid state drives (Solid State Drive, SSD) have been widely used due to many advantages such as high performance, low power consumption, high reliability, good shock resistance, and no noise. However, after the SSD is used for a period of time, its access performance will drop significantly. Garbage collection has a significant impact on SSD performance. Through testing on Intel SSD DCP3700 (800G), it is found that for random mixed requests with a read / write granularity of 4KB and a read / write ratio of 7:3. When the IntelSSD is an empty disk, its IOPS can reach 200,000, and its read-write bandwidth can reach 800MB / s; when Intel SSD is pre-embedded and fragmented, its IOPS drops...
