If the write-verify passes, a second plurality of ECC sub-blocks is encoded into a subsequent ECC super-block. If the write-verify fails, the first ECC sub-block and a subset of the second plurality of ECC sub-blocks are encoded into the subsequent ECC super-block. In another aspect, in response to the first ECC super-block failing to recover the first ECC sub-block, a subsequent ECC super-block is read and a copy of the first ECC sub-block is used if the copy is detected in the subsequent ECC super-block.

At least one mitigation option may be initiated at the video image sensor as a result.

A method for providing varying amounts of simulated latencies for a mainframe is disclosed. The method includes modifying routing to pass through a simulated latency injector system; setting an initial latency amount for the target mainframe; when the mainframe application is determined to be unstable, modifying the OSA routing to bypass the simulated latency injector system; when the mainframe application is determined to be stable in the first monitoring, initiating a planned latency injection schedule for injecting latencies in differing amounts until a target latency amount is reached; performing monitoring for the stability of the mainframe application; modifying an injected latency amount back to the initial latency amount when the mainframe application is determined to be unstable in the monitoring; and applying another latency amount specified in the planned latency injection schedule when the mainframe application is determined to be stable.
Solid State Drive devices with hardware accelerators and methods for apportioning storage resources with tokens in the SSD are disclosed. SSDs typically comprise an array of non-volatile memory devices and a controller which manages access to the memory devices. The controller may also comprise one or more accelerators to either improve the performance of the SSD itself or to offload specialized computation workloads of a host-computing device. Different accelerators may be dynamically assigned portions of the non-volatile memory array according to the type of data being accessed and/or the throughput required. Provision is also made for the data to be accessed directly by the accelerators bypassing the controller. The accelerators may also share data bus bandwidth and resources with each other or the storage device controller. To minimize conflicts and improve the storage device performance, a system of tokens for both cache memory and bus bandwidth is used to dynamically assign these resources.

Storage devices are configured to be utilized in a variety of blockchain related activities that rely on a proof of space consensus model. These storage devices are required to process a lot of read and write cycles on their memory devices to generate the desired proof of space consensus data.

Additional optimizations can further include configuring partitions or namespaces to comprise single-level-cell majority or single-level-cell only memory devices to increase writing speeds. Further optimizations can include interleaving or extending the length of error correction codes. These optimizations, while not suitable for general use, are suitable for proof of space blockchain activities.

The controller is configured to receive a read command from a host device to read data from the memory device, fetch the read data from the memory device, check metadata associated with the read data, determine if the metadata corresponds to the read command, and provide modified read data to the host device when the metadata does not correspond to the read command. The modified read data may be encrypted read data, corrupted read data, or read data that is replaced with debug information. When the host device receives data that is different than the read data that is requested, the modified read data may be unreadable to the host device so that unprivileged access to the read data may be avoided.
