Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for generating efficient reads for a system having non-volatile memory ('NVM'). A read command can be separated by a host processor of the system into two phases: a) transmitting a command to a storage processor of the system, where the command is associated with one or more logical addresses, and b) generating data transfer information. The host processor can generate the data transfer information while the storage processor is processing the command from the host processor. Once the data transfer information has been generated and data has been read from the NVM, the data can be transferred.
