Abstract
A system is proposed to enable a hardware based host controller to perform operations related to Host-aware Performance booster (HPB). The host controller may retrieve a command packet from a host memory targeting a logical address of a storage location of the storage device, may retrieve a physical address of the storage device mapped to the logical address from the address map, and may send the command packet to the storage device. The sent command packet may have the physical address incorporated therein.
