Abstract

A storage device minimizes HPB entry inactivation resulting from data associated with hot reads being retrieved from multiple HPB sub-regions covering a logical-to-physical table. The storage device may support the HPB feature and a multiple HPB sub-region mode. The storage device includes a controller that tracks a hit count associated with a logical block address in a read command. The controller determines that the hit count has reached a hit threshold and updates a hit table to identify logical block address pages associated with hit counts that have reached the hit threshold across HPB sub-regions covering a logical-to-physical table. The controller transmits the hit table to a host device to be stored in an HPB cache on the host device and to be used by the host device for read commands sent from the host device to the storage device.
