Abstract
A data storage device includes a memory device and a controller coupled to the memory device. The controller is configured to determine that a connection to a host memory buffer (HMB) of a host device is lost, load a most recent copy of a flash translation layer (FTL) table from the memory device, generate one or more updates to the most recent copy of the FTL table, and re-enable command fetching. The controller is further configured to mark one or more commands in a command database with an error condition upon the determining. After a boot of the connection, the controller is further configured to copy the FTL tables from the memory device to the HMB, work on commands, save FTL table differences between the HMB and the memory device, and update the FTL tables in the memory device.
