System for slowdown status notification and operating method thereof

A data processing system comprising:

• a host device;
• and
• a memory system including a controller and a memory device,
• wherein the controller includes an event status collection module configured to collect and categorize events including slowdown events related to an internal operation of the controller, and
• wherein the controller is suitable for:
• receiving a command for the memory device from the host device;
• determining whether at least one slowdown event that occurs due to the internal operation corresponding to the command is related to a first condition or a second condition;
• when it is determined that the slowdown event is related to the first condition, determining whether the slowdown event occurred based on a first criterion, and when it is determined that the slowdown event occurred based on the first criterion, determining a status level of the slowdown event;
• when it is determined that the slowdown event is related to the second condition, determining whether the slowdown event occurred based on a second criterion, and when it is determined that the slowdown event occurred based on the second criterion, determining one of multiple intervals within which to notify the host device of occurrence of the slowdown event, wherein each of the multiple intervals is associated with a respective one of multiple status levels, and the determined interval corresponds to a status level of the slowdown event;
• and
• transmitting, to the host device, an event notification message indicating occurrence of the slowdown event based on the first criterion and the determined status level or an event notification message indicating occurrence of the slowdown event based on the second criterion within the determined interval,
• wherein the first criterion includes a resource allocation ratio of a housekeeping workload to a host workload over a time interval.
