Subject: Round up the average EC for recovered EB to defer their reuse
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2018 23:05:20 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180918130521.22880-1-amworsley@gmail.com> (raw)
We suggest rounding up the EC(Erase Count) for recovered EB(Erase Blocks) so
they are less likely than averaged to be re-used. The EBs which have lost their
EC header page and need to be reset are likely to be more worn than average
so it is better to use a larger than average number rather than less than
average number.
