Abstract
A method, performed by pointer fetch circuitry, includes buffering, in a pointer buffer of host interface circuitry, pointers associated with chop commands of a logical block address read command residing in a submission queue of a host system. The method includes sending address translation requests to an address translation circuit for respective translation units of respective chop commands, each translation unit includes a subset of the pointers. The method includes detecting an address translation request miss at a cache of the address translation circuit for a translation unit of a chop command. The method includes sending a translation miss message to a page request interface (PRI) handler. The translation miss message contains a virtual address of the translation unit and a restart point for the chop command, the translation miss message to trigger the PRI handler to send a page miss request to a translation agent of the host system.
