Abstract
Apparatus, systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for logical address range mapping for storage devices. A system includes a set of non-volatile memory elements accessible using a set of physical addresses. A system includes a controller for a set of non-volatile memory elements. A controller is configured to maintain a hierarchical data structure comprising a plurality of levels for mapping logical addresses to a set of physical address. A controller is configured to receive an input/output (I/O) request. A controller is configured to translate a logical address for an I/O request to a physical address utilizing a largest mapped logical address range that includes the logical address in a hierarchical data structure. A level includes one or more mappings between logical address ranges and physical address ranges at a range size for the level.
