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.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for techniques for enhanced system performance after retention loss are described. A memory system may program a page of memory cells in response to receiving a power down notification. As part of the programming, the memory system may record an indication of a voltage threshold of the page and power down for a duration of time, during which the memory system may experience retention loss. Upon powering on, the memory device may compare the voltage threshold of the page to the indication stored prior to powering down and determine a voltage offset for one or more blocks of the memory system. In some cases, the memory system may use the voltage offset to determine a starting bin, and may initiate a bin scan to determine a final bin for the one or more blocks.

Abstract: A processing device in a memory sub-system determines whether a media endurance metric associated with a memory block of a memory device satisfies one or more conditions. In response to the one or more conditions being satisfied, a temperature of the memory block is compared to a threshold temperature range. In response to determining the temperature of the memory block is within the threshold temperature range, the processing device causes execution of a wordline leakage test of a wordline group of a set of wordline groups of the memory block. A result of the wordline leakage test of the target wordline group is determined and an action is executed based on the result of the wordline leakage test.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for techniques for managing temporarily retired blocks of a memory system are described. In some examples, aspects of a memory system or memory device may be configured to determine an error for a block of memory cells. For example, a controller may determine an existence of the error and may temporarily retire the block. A media management operation may be performed on the temporarily retired block and, depending on one or more characteristics of the error, the temporarily retired block may be enabled or retired.

Abstract: A method includes performing a first read operation involving a set of memory cells using a first voltage, determining a quantity of bits associated with the set of memory cells based on the first read operation, performing a second read operation involving the set of memory cells using a second voltage that is greater than the first voltage when the quantity of bits is above a threshold quantity of bits for the set of memory cells, and performing the second read operation involving the set of memory cells using a third voltage that is less than the first voltage when the quantity of bits is below the threshold quantity of bits for the set of memory cells.

Abstract: A replacement block pool for a memory device is established. The replacement block pool comprises one or more valid blocks from a set of valid blocks in the memory device determined based on a constraint defining a minimum number of valid blocks for the memory device. A grown bad block is detected in the memory device. The grown bad block is replaced with a replacement block from the replacement block pool in response to detecting the grown bad block.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for redundant array management techniques are described. A memory system may include a volatile memory device, a non-volatile memory device, and one or more redundant arrays of independent nodes. The memory system may include a first redundant array controller and a second redundant array controller of a redundant array of independent nodes. The memory system may receive a write command associated with writing data to a type of memory cell. Based on the type of memory cell, the memory system may generate parity data corresponding to the data using one or both of the first redundant array controller and the second redundant array controller. In some examples, the first redundant array controller may be configured to generate parity data associated with a first type of failure and the second redundant array controller may be configured to generate parity data associated with a second type of failure.

Abstract: A method is described that includes determining, by a memory subsystem controller of a memory device, a number of memory cells from a set of memory cells that are in a programmed state. The memory subsystem controller further compares the number of memory cells from the set of memory cells that are in the programmed state to a proximity disturb threshold and in response to determining that the number satisfies the proximity disturb threshold, performs a remediation operation on user data stored in the set of memory cells.
