Abstract

Systems and methods for generating hint information associated with a host command are disclosed. In one implementation, a processor of a host system determines whether the host system has initiated a procedure that will send a command to a non-volatile memory system. The processor analyzes at least one of metadata or payload data associated with the command to determine whether the processor is able to generate hint information associated with the at least one of metadata or payload data. The processor generates hint information based on the analysis of the at least one of metadata or payload data, sends the hint information to the non-volatile memory system, and sends the command to the non-volatile memory system.
