Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to reducing exit latency when transitioning from non-operational power states. Before entering a non-operational power state, specific data in databases and/or tables can be identified as being recently utilized by the host device. In addition to saving the databases and/or tables, a recovery code is also stored to identify that specific data. Upon transitioning back to an operational power state, the recovery code is detected and the specific data can be recovered rather than recovering the entire database and/or table. Data not identified in the recovery code need not be recovered from always-on memory. In so doing, when transitioning back to an operational power state, the latency will be reduced compared to a situation where all data is stored in always-on memory.
