Abstract

See full text

A system and method of performing selective error coding in memory management of a memory device are described. The method includes performing a process of detecting and correcting memory errors in the memory of the memory device either prior to or after a chip mark associated with the memory device is in place. The method also includes localizing hard errors of the memory device based on a second process of detecting the memory errors in the memory of the memory device, the hard errors being persistent memory errors that persist from the process of detecting and correcting the memory errors to the second process, determining an extent of the hard errors based on the localizing, and preventing placement of the chip mark or removing the chip mark after de-allocating one or more ranges of addresses based on a result of the determining the extent of the hard errors.
