Abstract
Caching techniques can include: receiving a read I/O operation requesting to read from a logical address; determining whether a mapping cache includes a descriptor for the logical address, the mapping cache including two hash tables; responsive to determining that the mapping cache includes the descriptor for the logical address, performing read hit mapping cache processing which includes using a physical location identified by the descriptor to read content stored at the logical address; and responsive to determining that the mapping cache does not include the descriptor for the logical address, performing read miss mapping cache processing which includes adding the descriptor to the mapping cache. Read miss mapping cache processing can include adding the descriptor to a first hash table, used to access the descriptor by the logical address, and adding the descriptor to a second hash table used to access the descriptor by the physical location.
