Abstract
A system for a firmware image download operation in a storage device includes a storage device controller that performs the firmware image download operation in the storage device. A dedicated host memory buffer (HMB) within a HMB stores a firmware image. Further, re-ordering or sorting of an address list mapped to the firmware image that is not in sequence is performed while the firmware image is in the dedicated HMB. Another system for a firmware image download operation in a storage device includes a driver of the host that performs the firmware image download operation in the storage device. A dedicated HMB within a HMB is used for the chunks of the firmware image that are not in sequence. Further, sorting an address list mapped to the firmware image that are not in sequence is performed while the chunks of the firmware image are in the dedicated HMB.
