Abstract
Disclosed is a system comprising a memory device and a processing device, operatively coupled with the memory device, to perform operations including identifying a group of memory cells corresponding to a first range of logical block addresses (LBAs). The operations performed by the processing device further include receiving a memory access command with respect to the group of memory cells. The operations performed by the processing device further include responsive to determining that a data structure associated with the group of memory cells references a second range of LBAs, blocking the memory access command; responsive to determining that the first range of LBAs does not include each LBA of the second range of LBAs, performing, on the group of memory cells, a trim operation; and responsive to determining that the data structure indicates the completion of the trim operation, performing a memory access operation specified by the memory access command.
