Apparatus and method of scheduling universal flash storage refresh operations according to a refresh handover mechanism

摘要

A method of scheduling universal flash storage (UFS) operations using a refresh handover mechanism is described. The method includes receiving, during refresh of a UFS device, a request for an input/output (I/O) operation. The method also includes handing over between a first type of refresh operation and a second type of refresh operation in response to the request for the I/O operation.
