Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for using page line filler data are described. In some examples, a memory system may store data within a write buffer of the memory system. The memory system may initiate an operation to transfer the write buffer data to a memory device, for example, due to a command to perform a memory management operation (e.g., cache synchronization, context switching, or the like) from a host system. In some examples, a quantity of write buffer data may fail to satisfy a data size threshold. Thus, the memory system may aggregate the data in the write buffer with valid data from a block of the memory device associated with garbage collection. The memory system may aggregate the write buffer data with the garbage collection data until the aggregated data satisfies the data size threshold. The memory system may then write the aggregated data to the memory device.

Abstract: A processing device of a memory sub-system can monitor a plurality of received commands to identify a forced unit access command. The processing device can identify a metadata area of the memory device based on the forced unit access command. The processing device can also perform an action responsive to identifying a subsequent forced unit access command to the metadata area.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for a split cache for address mapping data are described. A memory system may include a cache (e.g., including a first and second portion) for storing data that indicates a mapping between logical addresses associated with a host system and physical addresses of the memory system. The memory system may store data (e.g., the address mapping data) within the first portion of the cache. Additionally, the memory system may store an indication of whether the data is used for any access operations during a duration that the data is stored in the first portion of the cache. The memory system may transfer subsets of the data to the second portion of the cache if they are used for access operations during the duration.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for read operations for regions of a memory device are described. In some examples, a memory device may include a first cache for storing mappings between logical addresses and physical addresses of the memory device, and a second cache for storing indices associated with entries removed from the first cache. The memory device may include a controller configured to load mappings to the first cache upon receiving read commands. When the first cache is full, and when the memory device receives a read command, the controller may remove an entry from the first cache and may store an index associated with the removed entry to the second cache. The controller may then transmit a mapping associated with the index to a host device for use in a HPB operation.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for selective garbage collection are described. A host system may determine that a battery level is below a threshold or determine whether a power parameter of a memory system that includes a memory device satisfies a criterion. The host system may set a value of a flag. The memory system may perform an access operation and identify the value of the flag. The memory system may determine whether performing a garbage collection procedure is permitted based on identifying the value of the flag.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data separation for garbage collection are described. A control component coupled to the memory array may identify a source block for a garbage collection procedure. In some cases, a first set of pages of the source block may be identified as a first type associated with a first access frequency and a second set of pages of the source block ay be identified as a second type associated with a second access frequency. Once the pages are identified as either the first type or the second type, the first set of pages may be transferred to a first destination block, and the second set of pages may be transferred to a second destination block as part of the garbage collection procedure.
