Content
The non-volatile memory controller 124 may comprise a SML 130 and the non-volatile memory media controller 126. The SML 130 may provide storage services to the storage clients 116 via one or more interfaces 131, 132, and/or 133. In some embodiments, the SML 130 provides a block-device I/O interface 131 through which storage clients 116 perform block-level I/O operations. Alternatively, or in addition, the SML 130 may provide a storage management layer (SML) interface 132, which may provide other storage services to the storage clients 116. In some embodiments, the SML interface 132 may comprise extensions to the block device interface 131 (e.g., storage clients 116 may access the SML interface 132 through extensions to the block device interface 131). Alternatively, or in addition, the SML interface 132 may be provided as a separate API, service, and/or library. The SML 130 may be further configured to provide a cache interface 133 for caching data using the non-volatile memory system 102.
