Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for error log indication via error control information are described. For instance, a memory device may transmit, to a host device, a first signal including a set of error control bits indicating that an error log of the memory device includes information for use by the host device. The memory device may receive, from the host device in response to the first signal, a second signal including a request to retrieve the information of the error log. The memory device may transmit, to the host device in response to the second signal, a third signal including the information of the error log.
Claims20
A method by a memory device, comprising:
- reading data from a storage component of the memory device based at least in part on receiving a read command from a host device;
- performing, based at least in part on reading the data from the storage component, one or more error control operations on the data to obtain one or more error control bits associated with the data;
- and
- transmitting, to the host device, an error log indicator associated with the one or more error control bits based at least in part on performing the one or more error control operations, wherein the error log indicator indicates a state of an error log of the memory device.
A memory device, comprising:
- one or more memory arrays;
- and
- one or more controllers coupled with the one or more memory arrays and configured to cause the memory device to:
- read data from a storage component of the memory device based at least in part on receiving a read command from a host device;
- perform, based at least in part on reading the data from the storage component, one or more error control operations on the data to obtain one or more error control bits associated with the data;
- and
- transmit, to the host device, an error log indicator associated with the one or more error control bits based at least in part on performing the one or more error control operations, wherein the error log indicator indicates a state of an error log of the memory device.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code, the code comprising instructions executable by one or more processors to:
- reading data from a storage component of a memory device based at least in part on receiving a read command from a host device;
- perform, based at least in part on reading the data from the storage component, one or more error control operations on the data to obtain one or more error control bits associated with the data;
- and
- transmit, to the host device, an error log indicator associated with the one or more error control bits based at least in part on performing the one or more error control operations, wherein the error log indicator indicates a state of an error log of the memory device.
