Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a method and device for reading data. The method includes the steps that a controller of storage equipment receives a data reading request sent by a host, the data reading request includes a logic address of data to be read, the controller of the storage equipment sends the logic address to a controller of a solid state disk, the controller of the solid state disk inquires in a mapping table stored in a nonvolatile storage medium of the solid state disk according to the logic address to obtain a physical address of the data to be read, the controller of the solid state disk obtains the data to be read according to the physical address of the data to be read and sends the data to the controller of the storage equipment, and the controller of the storage equipment sends the data to be read to the host. According to the method and device for reading the data, the number of the mapping table is one, the physical address can be directly looked for according to the logic address, compared with the prior art with two mapping, the method and device greatly reduce cost of the storage equipment and the host and improves efficiency of obtaining the data.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to communication technology, in particular to a method and device for reading data. Background technique [0002] Currently, in the field of storage, in a traditional disk storage array, a solid state disk (Solid State Device, SSD for short) is used as a high-speed cache to expand the memory high-speed cache. Specifically, using an SSD as a high-speed cache, the storage space provided by the SSD can be divided into several small blocks. In the entire storage system, there are two layers of mapping tables maintained: the first layer of mapping table maintains a mapping table in the memory of the storage array, and this mapping table records the "Logical Unit Number (LUN for short) of the storage array )'s logical block address (Logical Block Address, referred to as LBA)" to "SSD's LBA" mapping relationship; the second-level mapping table is a mapping table maintained in SSD, and this mapping table records "SSD's LBA" to "SSD's LBA...
