Abstract
In an example, a method of processing commands for a non-volatile storage device includes storing the commands among a plurality of first-level queues in a random access memory (RAM). Each command is assigned to a first-level queue based on membership in one of a plurality of first-level categories. The method further includes removing selected commands from the plurality of first-level queues according to a first schedule and performing at least one operation on the selected commands. The method further includes storing the selected commands among a plurality of second-level queues in the RAM. Each selected command is assigned to a second-level queue based on whether the command is a read command or a write command. The method further includes removing active commands from the plurality of second-level queues according to a second schedule. The method further includes issuing the active commands to a back end of the controller for processing.
