Abstract
A method to provide network storage services to a remote host system, including: generating, from packets received from the remote host system, first control messages and first data messages; buffering, in a random-access memory of a memory sub-system, the first control messages for a local host system to fetch the first control messages, process the first control messages, and generate second control messages; sending the first data messages to a storage device of the memory sub-system without the first data messages being buffered in the random-access memory; communicating the second control messages generated by the local host system to the storage device of the memory sub-system; and processing, within the storage device, the second control messages and the first data messages to provide the network storage services.
