Patent number: 10936497Abstract: In general, embodiments of the technology relate to a method and system for storing and reading data from persistent storage. More specifically, embodiments of the technology relate to a method and system for storing data in persistent storage, where the data written to the persistent storage is not immediately accessible in the persistent storage (i.e., during the inaccessibility period). In such instances, embodiments of the technology provide a method and system to enable the storage system to service read requests for the data using a primary cache entry table (PCET) and an overflow table.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2019Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: EMC IP Holding Company LLCInventors: Todd Wilde, Samir Rajadnya, Karthik Ramachandran, Michael Nishimoto

Patent number: 10515014Abstract: According to one embodiment, a data processing system includes a plurality of processors, each of the processors being coupled to each of remaining processors via a processor interconnect, a plurality of memory controllers, each memory controller corresponding to one of the processors, a plurality of memory targets, each memory target includes one or more branches and a plurality of memory leaves for storing data, and an Ethernet switch fabric coupled to the memory controllers and the memory targets. When a first of the memory controllers writes data to a first of the memory leaves, the first memory controller sends a cache coherence message to remaining ones of the memory controllers to indicate that the data stored in the first memory leaf has been updated, such that any of the remaining memory controllers can update its cache by fetching the data from the first memory leaf.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2017Date of Patent: December 24, 2019Assignee: EMC IP Holding Company LLCInventors: Mark Himelstein, Kevin Rowett, Bruce Wilford, Richard Van Gaasbeck, Todd Wilde, Rick Carlson, Vikram Venkataraghavan, Vishwas Durai, Blair Barnett

Patent number: 10496284Abstract: A page virtualization table (PVT) and one or more block virtualization tables (BVTs) are maintained. The PVT includes PVT entries, each mapping a logical page number (LPN) to a virtual page number (VPN). Each BVT includes BVT entries, each mapping a virtual block number (VBN) to a physical block number (PBN). A request is received for accessing data stored in one of flash memory devices, the request including a first LPN. A search is performed in the PVT based on the first LPN to locate a first PVT entry to obtain a first VPN from the first PVT entry. A search is performed in a first BVT to locate a first BVT entry based on the VPN to obtain a first PBN from the first BVT entry. An input and output (IO) request is issued based on the first PBN to a flash controller associated with a first flash memory device that stores data corresponding to the first PBN.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2017Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: EMC IP Holding Company LLCInventors: Mark Himelstein, Bruce Wilford, Richard Van Gaasbeck, Todd Wilde, Rick Carlson, Vikram Venkataraghavan, Vishwas Durai, Blair Barnett, Kevin Rowett
