Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for allocating memory space are provided. In one aspect, a method for operating a memory system includes writing data retrieved from a source block of a memory device of the memory system to a target block of the memory device. The method further includes, in response to determining a size of the data in the target block reaches a threshold, reading the data from the target block, generating parity data corresponding to the data, and writing the parity data to the target block.
Claims9
A method of operating a memory system, comprising:
- writing data retrieved from a source block of a memory device of the memory system to a target block of the memory device;
- and
- in response to determining a size of the data in the target block reaches a threshold:
- reading the data from the target block;
- generating parity data corresponding to the data;
- and
- writing the parity data to the target block.
A memory system, comprising a memory device and a memory controller configured to control the memory device, wherein the memory system is configured to perform operations comprising:
- writing data retrieved from a source block of the memory device to a target block of the memory device;
- and
- in response to determining a size of the data in the target block reaches a threshold:
- reading the data from the target block;
- generating parity data corresponding to the data;
- and
- writing the parity data to the target block.
