Abstract:
A method includes writing, to a first data structure, indices corresponding to address locations of a logical-to-physical (L2P) data structure that maps a plurality of logical block addresses (LBAs) associated with the L2P data structure, initiating performance of a media management operation involving one or more memory blocks in which data associated with the LBAs is written, and refraining from rewriting particular entries in the L2P table that correspond to LBAs whose index in the first data structure is a particular value during performance of the media management operation.
