US Patent 11294807 Delayed write failure logging

The present disclosure generally relates to a method and device for reduce the amount of energy used to revert data within a storage device to a consistent state after a power loss event. Once power is lost from a host device, and prior to complete shutdown, a log is created within non-volatile memory (NVM) of the storage device. The log contains logical block addresses (LBAs) corresponding to data that experienced a write failure. At the next power-on event, the log is checked to see if any LBAs are present. If LBAs are present in the log, then the data that experienced a write failure can be properly written to the storage device.
