Abstract: A source block of a memory device for performing a media management operation is selected, wherein the source block comprises one or more translation units (TUs), and wherein a TU comprises a respective set of memory cells. One or more valid TUs in the source block are identified, wherein each valid TU of the one or more valid TUs corresponds to a respective set of memory cells comprising valid data. The one or more valid TUs identified in the source block are grouped into one or more candidate groups. The media management operation is performed by: executing one or more read operations to retrieve the valid data from the one or more candidate groups of TUs, and writing the valid data into one or more destination blocks.

Abstract: A system and method for preserving block experiencing wordline failure in memory devices. An example method includes receiving, by a processing device, a write command to program data to a block of a memory device; identifying, using a zone write pointer, a wordline of the block that addresses a set of memory cells for writing the data; determining whether the identified wordline matches an entry in a data structure; responsive to determining that the identified wordline matches the entry in the data structure, updating the zone write pointer to select a new wordline associated with the block.

Abstract: A system and method for preserving block experiencing wordline failure in memory devices. An example method includes performing, by a processor, a write operation to program data to a set of memory cells addressable by a first wordline of a plurality of wordlines of a block of a memory device; determining that a program fault occurred during the write operation; determining a number of wordlines referenced by a program fault data structure that are associated with the block; and responsive to determining that the number of wordlines fails to satisfy a threshold criterion, releasing a second wordline of the plurality of wordlines to be available for write operations.
