Techniques for firmware enhancement in memory devices

An apparatus, comprising:

• processing circuitry configured to cause the apparatus to:
• select a portion of a node address mapping stored in a first area of a non-volatile memory device of a memory system, the memory system having the non-volatile memory device and a volatile memory device;
• transmit a command to transfer the portion of the node address mapping to the volatile memory device that is associated with firmware of the memory system, the node address mapping comprising one or more addresses associated with node blocks of a second area of the non-volatile memory device;
• and
• receive a response to the command, the response indicating a status associated with transferring the portion.

An apparatus, comprising:

• a non-volatile memory device configured to store data of the apparatus, the non-volatile memory device comprising a plurality of areas each associated with respective ranges of addresses;
• a volatile memory device coupled with firmware of the apparatus;
• and
• a controller operable to transfer a portion of a node address mapping stored in a first area of the non-volatile memory device from the non-volatile memory device to the volatile memory device, the node address mapping comprising one or more addresses associated with node blocks of a second area of the plurality of areas.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code comprising instructions which, when executed by processing circuitry of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to:

• select a portion of a node address mapping stored in a first area of a non-volatile memory device of a memory system, the memory system having the non-volatile memory device and a volatile memory device;
• transmit a command to transfer the portion of the node address mapping to the volatile memory device that is associated with firmware of the memory system, the node address mapping comprising one or more addresses associated with node blocks of a second area of the non-volatile memory device;
• and
• receive a response to the command, the response indicating a status associated with transferring the portion.
