Abstract
A controller of a memory system may variably set a starting point of a header region, of a payload region, or both of a buffer storing messages received from a host device, so that it is possible to flexibly adjust the size of a region storing different types of messages using a limited buffer, and process the messages without omission, thereby improving an operating performance of the memory system.
Claims20
A memory system comprising:
- at least one memory storing data;
- and
- a controller including a buffer storing at least a part of a message received from an external device, and configured to store a first message of a first type in a first region of the buffer and store a second message of a second type in a second region continuous with the first region of the buffer, and variably set a starting point of the first region, a starting point of the second region, or both.
A control device comprising:
- a buffer including a first region storing a first message of a first type and a second region storing a second message of a second type;
- and
- a control circuit configured to store at least a part of the first message and the second message received from an external device in the buffer, and variably set a starting point of the first region, a starting point of the second region, or both.
A computing system comprising:
- a host device for transmitting a first message of a first type and a second message of a second type to the outside;
- and
- a memory device including a buffer with a first region storing the first message and a second region storing the second message, and configured to variably set a starting point of the first region a starting point of the second region, or both and to process the first message and the second message.
