Abstract:
Disclosed are systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing a high-speed data path to storage devices. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed comprising receiving, by the processor, a data access command, the data access command specifying a location in memory to access data; issuing, by the processor, the data access command to the storage device via a first datapath, the first datapath comprising a non-block datapath; and accessing, by the processor, the non-volatile storage component through the first datapath and the memory, wherein the non-volatile storage component of the storage device is mapped to memory accessible by the processor.
