Abstract

Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for data processing retries. As an example, a data processing retry circuit is discussed that includes a stepped erasure window register, and an erasure flag set circuit. The stepped erasure window register includes: an erasure flag location, an erasure flag length, and a step size. The erasure flag set circuit is operable to assert a first erasure flag beginning at the erasure flag location and having the erasure flag length at a first time. In addition, the erasure flag set circuit is operable to assert a second erasure flag beginning at the erasure flag location plus the step size, and having the erasure flag length at a second time.
