Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for techniques for sequential access operations are described. In some cases, a memory system may be configured to suppress storing a checkpoint while in a sequential write mode. While in the sequential write mode, the memory system may initiate and store a first a checkpoint, along with an indication that the checkpoint was stored as part of the sequential write mode. Subsequently, the memory system may initiate a second checkpoint and suppress storing the second checkpoint. In some cases, to rebuild an address mapping after an asynchronous power loss, the memory system may access a last stored checkpoint to determine whether the checkpoint was stored as part of a sequential write mode. The memory system may generate logical addresses for data stored after the last checkpoint and before the asynchronous power loss using a starting logical address, as well as an ending logical address.
