Abstract

A method for managing physical-to-logical address information in a memory system includes determining whether a memory fragment of a memory block is a last memory fragment of the memory block. The method also includes, in response to a determination that the memory fragment is not the last memory fragment of the memory block: performing a write operation on the memory fragment; storing, in cache associated with the memory system, physical-to-logical address information associated with the memory fragment; and, in response to a determination that the cache is full, writing, to a next memory fragment of the memory block, control metadata associated with physical-to-logical address information stored in the cache.
