Abstract

Embodiments of the invention disclose a method and a device for processing superblocks based on NAND flash. The method comprises: detecting whether bad blocks exist in the superblocks; when bad blocksare detected, according to a preset rule, obtaining a target sporadic data block from a sporadic data block pool, using the target sporadic data block to replace the bad block; recording the block number of the superblock, information of a NAND flash unit to which the bad block belongs to, and the block number of the target sporadic data block, to manage the replaced superblock. The embodiments solve a problem in the prior art that available storage space is rapidly reduced in a storage device caused by the number of bad blocks in the superblock is increased. Through using the target sporadicdata blocks to replace the bad blocks in the superblock, a new superblock is obtained, excessive bad blocks accumulated in the superblock are prevented, so that storage space is saved, effective utilization of the storage space in the storage device is improved, and the storage device works in higher efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiment of the present invention relates to memory technology, and in particular to a NAND flash-based super block processing method and device. Background technique [0002] NAND Flash is a kind of Flash memory and belongs to non-volatile storage device (Non-volatileMemoryDevice). [0003] Usually, for NAND flash-based storage devices, when an uncorrectable read / write / erase error occurs in a data block of the NAND flash, the internal firmware will mark it as a bad block and no longer use it. If multiple NAND flashes are embedded in the storage device, multiple data blocks in the NAND flash form a super data block to be used simultaneously. However, when a certain data block in the super data block is broken, the super data block cannot be used, and as the number of bad blocks increases, the available storage space in the storage device will decrease rapidly. Contents of the invention [0004] Embodiments of the present invention provide a N...
