Abstract
A data item is programmed to a first set of physical management units (MUs) associated with a memory sub-system in accordance with a first pass programming operation of a multi-pass programming scheme. An entry of a data structure is updated to include a mapping that associates a first physical address associated with the first set of physical MUs with a set of virtual MUs associated with the memory sub-system. A detection is made that a second pass programming operation of the multi-pass programming scheme is initiated to program the data item to a second set of physical MUs associated with the memory sub-system. Responsive to the detecting, the entry of the data structure is updated to include an additional mapping that associates the set of virtual MUs with a second physical address associated with the second set of physical MUs.
