The disclosed technology relates determining a first subset of a plurality drives having a first zone size and a second subset of the plurality of drives having a second zone size different from the first zone size, within a redundant array of independent disks (RAID) group. A prevailing zone size between the first zone size and the second zone size is determined. One or more logical zones within the determined first subset of the plurality of drives and the determined second subset of the plurality of drives for a received input-output operation is reserved based on the determined prevailing zone size. The received input-output operation is completed within the reserved one or more logical zones within the determined first subset of the plurality of drives and the determined second subset of the plurality of drives

Methods for handling storage devices with different zone sizes and devices thereof

The disclosed technology relates to managing input-output operation in a zoned storage system includes identifying a first physical zone and a second physical zone within a zoned namespace solid-state drive associated with a logical zone to perform a received write operation. Data to be written in the received write operation is temporarily staged in a zone random write area associated with the identified second physical zone. Based a storage threshold of the zone random write area, a determination is made regarding when to transfer temporarily staged data to be written area to the identified second physical zone. When the storage threshold of the zone random write area determined to have exceeded, temporarily staged data to be written is transferred to the identified second physical zone.

Methods for handling input-output operations in zoned storage systems and devices thereof

The disclosed technology relates to determining physical zone data within a zoned namespace solid state drive (SSD), associated with logical zone data included in a first received input-output operation based on a mapping data structure within a namespace of the zoned namespace SSD. A second input-output operation specific to the determined physical zone data is generated wherein the second input-output operation and the received input-output operation is of a same type. The generated second input-output operation is completed using the determined physical zone data within the zoned namespace SSD.

Transform modes are derived for inter-predicted blocks using side information. A prediction residual is generated for a current video block using a reference frame. Side information associated with one or both of the current video block or the reference frame is identified. A trained transform is determined from amongst multiple trained transforms based on the side information, in which each of the trained transforms is determined using individual side information types and combinations of the individual side information types and the side information represents values of one of the individual side information types or one of the combinations of the individual side information types. The prediction residual is transformed according to the trained transform, and data associated with the transformed prediction residual and the side information are encoded to a bitstream.

Methods, non-transitory machine readable media, and computing devices that manage storage operations directed to dual-port solid state disks (SSDs) coupled to multiple hosts are disclosed. With this technology, context metadata comprising a checksum is retrieved based on a first physical address mapped, in a cached zoned namespace (ZNS) mapping table, to a logical address. The logical address is extracted from a request to read a portion of a file. A determination is made when the checksum is valid based on a comparison to identification information extracted from the request and associated with the file portion. At least the first physical address is replaced in the cached ZNS mapping table with a second physical address retrieved from an on-disk ZNS mapping table, when the determination indicates the checksum is invalid. The file portion retrieved from a dual-port SSD using the second physical address is returned to service the request.

A prevailing zone size between the first zone size and the second zone size is determined. One or more logical zones within the determined first subset of the plurality of drives and the determined second subset of the plurality of drives for a received input-output operation is reserved based on the determined prevailing zone size.

Methods and systems for a storage environment are provided, including generating a plurality of child (or tetris) write requests to write data for a write request using a plurality of subdivisions of a plurality of logical zones defined for a plurality of zoned solid state drives (ZNS SSDs) of a RAID array, each LZone mapped to one or more logical RAID zone (RZone) of the ZNS SSDs having a plurality of physical zones across a plurality of independent media units of each ZNS SSD; assigning a sequence number to each child (or tetris) write request corresponding to each subdivision, the sequence number indicating an order in which the child (or tetris) write requests are to be processed; and selecting, based on the assigned sequence number, one or more subdivisions for sequentially writing data to one or more RZones of the plurality of ZNS SSDs.

Methods and systems for processing write requests in a storage system

A first plurality of block identifiers is sorted based, at least in part, on a measure of spatial locality. A second plurality of block identifiers is sorted based, at least in part, on the measure of spatial locality. At least the first plurality of block identifiers and the second plurality of block identifiers are incrementally merged into a third plurality of block identifiers based, at least in part, on the measure of spatial locality. A block of data corresponding to metadata associated with a plurality of block identifiers of the third plurality of block identifiers is updated.

Efficient modification of storage system metadata

Transform modes are derived for inter-predicted blocks using side information available within a bitstream. An inter-predicted encoded video block and side information are identified within a bitstream. Based on the side information, a trained transform is determined for inverse transforming transform coefficients of the inter-predicted encoded video block from amongst multiple trained transforms. The transform coefficients of the inter-predicted encoded video block are inverse transformed according to the trained transform to produce a prediction residual. A video block is reconstructed using the prediction residual and the reference frame. The video block is then output within an output video stream for storage or display. To determine the trained transforms, a learning model uses individual side information types and combinations of the individual side information types processed against a training data set.

Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and computing devices that execute a storage operation, without journaling the storage operation in a log, and withhold from a file system a list of freed inodes including an indication of an inode freed as a result of the execution of the storage operation. A consistency point operation is then initiated that retrieves storage operations logged as journal entries in the log and commits a result of each of the storage operations to data storage devices. A list of available inodes is updated based on the list of freed inodes, when the consistency point operation is determined to be complete. This technology reduces the number of storage operations that are required to be journaled to maintain consistency of a file system, thereby reducing the runtime resources required to facilitate the journaling and replay resource required to replay the storage operations following a recovery.
