Abstract

Techniques are presented that more efficiently calculate data path protection (DPP) parity. Firmware is advantageously used for such calculation with limited or no calls to a DPP engine, depending on the type of host data. The techniques use linear code properties of the type of host data to enable the firmware to calculate DPP parity faster than using the DPP engine for all calculations.
