Abstract
In some implementations, a memory system may receive a flush command indicating for the memory system to perform a flush operation on a cache of the memory system. The memory system may determine whether to delay an execution of the flush operation based at least in part on whether a condition associated with executing flush operations at the cache is satisfied. The memory system may execute the flush operation based at least in part on the condition being satisfied.
Claims25
A memory system, comprising:
- one or more components configured to:
- receive, from a host system, a flush command indicating for the memory system to perform a flush operation on a cache of the memory system;
- determine whether to delay an execution of the flush operation based at least in part on whether a condition associated with executing flush operations at the cache is satisfied;
- and
- execute the flush operation based at least in part on the condition being satisfied.

A memory system, comprising:
- a cache;
- a non-volatile memory array;
- a host interface configured to receive a synchronization command indicating for the memory system to transfer data from the cache to the non-volatile memory array;
- and
- a controller coupled to the cache, the non-volatile memory array, and the host interface, the controller configured to transfer the data from the cache to the non-volatile memory array based at least in part on receiving the synchronization command and a condition associated with a transferring of data from the cache to the non-volatile memory array being satisfied.

A method, comprising:
- receiving, from a host system, a flush command indicating for a memory system to perform a flush operation on a cache of the memory system;
- determining whether to delay an execution of the flush operation based at least in part on whether a condition associated with executing flush operations at the cache is satisfied;
- and
- executing the flush operation based at least in part on the condition being satisfied.
