Detailed ways

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, but not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

A memory of an electronic device usually uses a Trinary-Level Cell (TLC) chip as a NAND flash memory chip, and TLC is 3bit/cell.

Although the electronic device classifies the data of each application program in the memory according to the activity of the application program, it still cannot effectively manage the storage space of the memory, and cannot maintain the high performance of the application program for a long time.

Hereinafter, a specific example will be used for description.

Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of an interaction framework between an application program and a memory. As shown in FIG. 1 , application A, application B, and application C directly write their respective data into the memory 110 , wherein A data 1-5 are data written by application A, and B data 1-2 are The data written by application B, C data 1 is the data written by application C. For the memory 110, the memory 110 arranges the data blocks of each application program in the order of writing time on the physical address, therefore, the data of different application programs may be mixed together for storage. In addition, applications process data in parallel. Therefore, multiple data generated by a single application program have discontinuities in physical addresses. If the data generated by the application program is small amount of data, such as 4KB data, it is very Fragments easily form. In addition, after some temporary data is deleted, fragmented space will also be left, for example, a fragmented space will be vacated after data A in Figure 1 is deleted.

As more and more applications are installed in the electronic device, especially when the storage space of the memory is insufficient, the accumulated fragments increase, which reduces the performance of the commonly used applications, thereby affecting the user experience.

At present, when the electronic device detects that the available storage capacity is insufficient, it will defragment the storage space, delete the temporary data in the fragmented data, and store the discrete fragmented data continuously, so as to reduce the performance of the fragmented data on the application program. Impact.

Although defragmentation can alleviate to a certain extent the problem of performance degradation of electronic devices over time, excessive defragmentation will also have a certain impact on the lifespan of memory. Due to the reduction of the storage space of the memory and the daily operation of the electronic device by the user, more and more fragments are accumulated, and the fragment capacity is increasing. , so that the defragmentation cannot completely eliminate the impact of storage space on the performance of the application, and still cannot effectively improve the performance of the application.

FIG. 2 shows a schematic flowchart of a data storage method provided by an embodiment of the present invention.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the method shown in FIG. 2 may be performed by an electronic device, and the electronic device may include, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a handheld computer, a vehicle terminal, a wearable device, and a pedometer, etc. .

As shown in Figure 2, the data storage method may include:

Step 210, obtaining target data corresponding to the target application;

Step 220, storing the target data in the target storage area associated with the target application;

The target storage area is located in the first partition of the storage space, the storage space further includes a second partition, and the first data storage capacity of the first storage unit in the first partition is smaller than the second storage capacity of the second storage unit in the second partition. Amount of data storage.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the storage space of the electronic device is divided into a first partition and a second partition, and the target storage area in the first partition is used as an independent storage area for the target application. After the target data, the target data can be stored in the target storage area, so that the target application can quickly find the location where the data is stored when reading the required data. The first data storage amount is smaller than the second data storage amount of the second storage unit in the second partition, so that the program for storing data in the first partition is more simplified than the program for storing data in the second partition, and the data is stored in the target storage area. The program for reading the data required by the target application program is also simplified accordingly, which can improve the efficiency of reading the data required by the target application program, make the electronic device read and write data faster, and greatly improve the target application program. program performance. At the same time, since the target application can write and read data in the independent storage area in the first partition, it is equivalent to that the target application has its own cache area, which can ensure that the application has a high performance for a long time. performance.

In step 210 of some embodiments of the present invention, the target application may be any application in the electronic device, and the target data may be data that the application needs to write into the memory of the electronic device.

In step 210 of other embodiments of the present invention, the target application may be any application frequently used by the user in the electronic device, that is, any commonly used application, and the target data may be the commonly used application that needs to be written into the memory of the electronic device The data.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the data to be written into the memory of the electronic device may be at least one of a file or stored data to be written into the electronic device.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the storage space is any memory, such as a hard disk, a flash memory, and the like.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the first partition is a single-level storage cell (Single-Level Cell, SLC) storage mode, and the second partition is a three-layer storage cell TLC storage mode.

In other embodiments of the present invention, the second partition may also be an arbitrary multi-level cell (Multi-Level Cell, MLC) storage mode, and the first partition may also be that the first data storage capacity of the first storage unit is smaller than that of the second partition. Any MLC or SLC storage mode of the second data storage amount of the second storage unit in the partition is not limited here.

Taking the first partition as an SLC storage mode partition (hereinafter referred to as "SLC partition") and the second partition as a TLC storage mode partition (hereinafter referred to as "TLC partition") as an example, if the target application directly reads and writes in the SLC partition Compared with the traditional reading and writing data in the TLC partition, the sequential writing speed can be more than doubled, thereby greatly improving the performance of the target application.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the first partition is provided with a target storage area associated with the target application, and the target storage area may be a storage area only used to store data of the target application, so that different applications can Write and read data in their respective storage areas in the first partition, so that the storage areas of each application in the first partition are independent, which is equivalent to each application having its own cache area, which can not only store data in It ensures high performance of applications for a long time, and can also reduce fragmented data and fragmented space in the storage space, and improve the continuity of stored data.

In some embodiments of the present invention, before step 210, the data storage method may further include:

In the storage space, create the first partition;

According to a predetermined allocation method, in the first storage unit of the first partition, select at least one target first storage unit;

The selected target first storage unit is determined as the target storage area.

Taking a NAND flash chip whose memory is a TLC chip as an example, the system version can be programmed on the TLC chip through the NAND Flash command to construct an SLC partition as the first partition, and other TLC partitions as the second partition. Therefore, some TLC partitions can be converted into SLC partitions, and the advantage of high performance can be obtained at the expense of part of the capacity.

FIG. 3 shows a schematic structural diagram of a conventional memory. FIG. 4 shows a schematic diagram of the improved structure of the memory shown in FIG. 3 .

As shown in FIG. 3 , the NAND flash memory chip 310 of the electronic device currently has multiple partitions, including multiple partitions such as boot, system, user_data, and cache, but these partitions belong to the TLC partition for the NAND flash memory chip 310, that is, the first partition Second division. As shown in FIG. 4 , part of the TLC partitions of the NAND flash memory chip 310 can be converted into SLC partitions through the TLC area to SLC area technology, thereby constructing a new SLC partition, ie, the first partition, in the NAND flash memory chip 310 .

In some embodiments of the present invention, the first partition may include multiple first storage units, and for different application programs, at least one first storage unit may be allocated to it according to a predetermined allocation method, so that the allocated first storage unit A storage area associated with the application is formed. For example, at least one target first storage unit can be allocated to the target application according to a predetermined allocation method to form a target storage area associated with the target application, so that it can obtain the use authority of the target storage area, so that the target storage area can be directly stored in the target storage area. Read and write data.

Specifically, the predetermined allocation manner may include at least one of the following:

1. Allocate according to the daily write data volume of the application. For example, the total size of the SLC partition is 16GB. If there are 5 applications that need to allocate the storage area in the SLC partition, 2 applications are online game applications, 2 applications are communication applications, and 1 application is video applications. application program, you can allocate a larger number of first storage units to the video application program according to the preset allocation ratio of different types of application programs to form a larger storage space, such as 12GB, and allocate a number of times to the communication application program More first storage units form the next largest storage space, such as 2GB, and allocate a smaller number of first storage units to the online game application to form a smaller storage space, such as 512MB.

2. According to the number of applications and the size of the SLC partition, it is evenly distributed according to a fixed ratio. For example, the total size of the SLC partition is 16GB. If there are 8 applications that need to allocate the storage area in the SLC partition, the number of the first storage unit in the SLC partition is divided into 8 points, so that each application can allocate The storage area is 2GB.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the number of application programs that can store data in the first partition may also be limited according to the size of the first partition. For example, the total size of the SLC partition is 16GB, and it can be limited that up to 8 applications can be set to store data in the first partition, and the storage area of each application is set to 2GB.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the data storage method may further include:

In the case that the first data storage amount of the target storage area within the first preset time period is smaller than the first preset threshold or greater than the second preset threshold, the target storage area included in the target storage area is adjusted according to the first data storage amount the number of first storage units;

Wherein, the first preset threshold is smaller than the second preset threshold.

In some embodiments, when the first data storage amount of the target storage area within the first preset time period is less than the first preset threshold, the amount of data stored in the target storage area may be reduced according to the amount of data stored in the target storage area. The number of included target first storage units makes the data storage capacity of the target storage area after the reduction smaller than the data storage capacity of the target storage area before the reduction, thereby saving the storage area of the SLC partition.

In other embodiments, when the first data storage amount of the target storage area within the first preset time period is greater than the second preset threshold, the second preset threshold may be greater than the first preset threshold and less than or It is equal to the maximum data storage capacity of the target storage area. At this time, according to the amount of data stored in the target storage area, the number of target first storage units included in the target storage area can be increased, so that the data storage capacity of the increased target storage area can be increased. It is greater than the data storage volume of the target storage area before the increase, so as to ensure that the data storage volume of the target storage area corresponding to the target application is sufficient, so that the target application can maintain high performance.

Therefore, the data storage method of the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to the scenario of dynamically adjusting the data storage amount of the target storage area. At this time, the storage area in the first partition allocated by the electronic device for each application program can be dynamically adjusted. Adjusted to ensure that each application with a storage area has sufficient data storage in the target storage area, so that these applications maintain high performance for a long time.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the data storage amount of the storage area can be set with various preset data storage amounts, for example, 12GB, 2GB, and 512MB. When the number of target first storage units included in the target storage area needs to be increased or decreased, the corresponding preset data storage amount may be directly selected according to the data amount stored in the target storage area.

In other embodiments of the present invention, according to the amount of data stored in the target storage area, the number of first storage units in the storage area may be increased or decreased according to a preset ratio, for example, 20 units in the storage area may be increased or decreased. % of the first storage unit, so as to realize the dynamic adjustment of the data storage capacity of the storage area.

For example, after refreshing all valid data in the target storage area corresponding to the target application to the second partition, the amount of data stored by the target application in the first preset time period can be determined. 20% of the target storage area, and the current data storage area of the target storage area is 2GB, you can reallocate a smaller storage area to it, so that the data storage capacity of the target storage area of the target application becomes 512MB.

For another example, when the electronic device is in the process of timing detection, it is determined that the amount of data stored by the target application within the first preset time period makes the remaining data storage in the target storage area only 20% of the total data storage, and The current data storage volume of the target storage area is 512MB, and a larger storage area can be re-allocated to make the data storage volume of the target storage area of the target application become 2GB.

During the use of the electronic device, as the usage time of the application program increases, the amount of data stored in the first partition becomes larger. In order to maintain the high performance of the application program, it is necessary to move the valid data in the first partition in time to release part of the first partition. The storage area of a partition is to refresh the first partition.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the target application may be an application with the first attribute;

In these embodiments, optionally, the data storage method may further include:

When the target application is updated from the first attribute to the second attribute, the data of the target category stored in the target storage area is moved to the second partition;

Free the target storage area.

In some embodiments, the first attribute may be a frequently used application attribute, and the second attribute may be an uncommon application attribute. In other embodiments, the first attribute may also be a user-selected attribute, and the second attribute may also be a non-user-selected attribute.

In some embodiments, taking the first attribute being a frequently used application attribute and the second attribute being an uncommon application attribute as an example, the user can also manually select a target application with a commonly used application attribute from multiple applications, and the electronic The device can also classify multiple application programs through an artificial intelligence (Artificial Intelligence, AI) classification method according to a preset selection rule, so as to automatically select a common application program among the multiple application programs.

Taking the first attribute as a common application attribute and the second attribute as an uncommon application attribute as an example, the AI classification method may be specifically as follows: the electronic device can obtain the use frequency of the target application in the second preset time period, and if the If the frequency is greater than or equal to the predetermined frequency threshold, it is determined as a common application attribute, and if the usage frequency is less than the predetermined frequency threshold, it is determined as a very common application attribute.

In other embodiments, taking the first attribute as the user-selected attribute and the second attribute as the non-user-selected attribute as an example, the user can select an application program that wants to have high performance, and set its attribute as the user-selected attribute, then the application is not selected. The properties of the application selected by the user are the properties that are not selected by the user.

FIG. 5 shows a schematic diagram of a common application management bar provided by an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5 , taking the first attribute as a commonly used application attribute and the second attribute as an uncommon application attribute as an example, the display interface of the electronic device may be provided with a commonly used application management column 410. The selected frequently-used applications 420 with the first attribute will be displayed in the frequently-used application management bar 410, and all frequently-used applications 420 displayed in the frequently-used application management bar 410 will have associated storage in the first partition The size of the storage area associated with each frequently used application program 420 can be dynamically changed, so that the data read and write performance of each frequently used application program 420 can be more effectively improved.

In other embodiments, continuing to take the first attribute as a common application attribute and the second attribute as an uncommon application attribute as an example, the target application is updated from the first attribute to the second attribute. If the target application is deleted from the commonly used application management column in FIG. 5 , the data of the target category stored in the target storage area can be moved to the second partition, and the target storage area can be released.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 5 , if the user removes any application in the frequently used application management bar 410 from the frequently used application management bar 410 , indicating that the application is updated from the first attribute to the second attribute, the electronic device can The data of the target category stored in the storage area associated with the application in the first partition is moved to the second partition, and the storage area associated with the application in the first partition is released.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the data of the target category may be valid data.

In some embodiments of the present invention, after releasing the target storage area, the data storage method may further include:

Disassociates the target application from the target storage area.

Therefore, the embodiments of the present invention can be applied to a scenario where the target application is changed from a commonly used application to a very frequently used application. In this scenario, the target storage area originally associated with the target application can be released, and the target application can be released from the The association relationship of the target storage area, so that the target storage area is no longer associated with the target application, and the storage area after the release of the target storage area can be associated with a new common application.

In other embodiments of the present invention, the data storage method may further include:

When the second data storage amount of the target storage area is greater than the third preset threshold, move the data of the target category stored in the target storage area to the second partition;

Free the target storage area.

In some embodiments, the second data storage volume of the target storage area is greater than the third preset threshold, so that the remaining storage data volume of the target storage area is insufficient or the data of the target category exceeds the third preset threshold. The data of the target category stored in the target storage area is moved to the second partition, and the target storage area is released.

For example, if the data storage volume of the target storage area associated with the target application program is 512MB, and the data volume of the target category stored in the target storage area exceeds 256MB, in order to prevent fragmentation, the data stored in the target storage area can be After the data of the target category forms a continuous data, the continuous sub-data is moved to the second partition through the system active refresh or background refresh (Flush) of the electronic device.

Therefore, the data storage method of the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to the scenario of dynamically adjusting the data storage amount of the target storage area. At this time, the storage area in the first partition allocated by the electronic device for each application program can be dynamically adjusted. Adjusted to ensure that each application with a storage area has sufficient data storage in the target storage area, so that these applications maintain high performance for a long time.

FIG. 6 shows a schematic diagram of the distribution of application program storage data provided by an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 7 shows a schematic diagram of the distribution of application program storage data provided by another embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 6 , application A has written A data 1-5 in the program A storage area of the SLC partition 510, and application B has written B data 1-2 in the program B storage area of the SLC partition 510 , application C has written C data 1 in the program C storage area of the SLC partition 510 , and there is no written data of application A, application B and application C in the TLC partition 520 . After application A deletes the written A data 4 from the program A storage area, a fragmented space is formed between the A data 3 and the A data 5, and the A data 5 becomes fragmented data.

As shown in FIG. 7 , after the valid data stored in the SLC partition 510 is accumulated to a certain extent, the electronic device can use the refresh mechanism to refresh the valid data A data 1 of the application program A whose data of the target category exceeds the third preset threshold. -3 and A data 5 are continuously stored in the TLC partition 520, so that the effective data of application A can be kept continuous and the fragmented space can be reduced.

It can be seen from Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 that when the program A storage area of application A is almost full, after the program A storage area is refreshed, the invalid data "A data 4" is not moved to the TLC partition 520, so fragmentation will not be formed. space, and the moved valid data will form a regular continuous data, so that the data storage address is continuous on the TLC partition 520, and then when application A reads its data from the TLC partition 520, because the data is continuous and the search range is continuous small, which can improve the performance of data reading. At the same time, after the program A storage area of application A is cleared, the program A storage area of application A can continue to be read and written by application A, and there is no fragmentation problem, so that application A can maintain high performance for a long time.

In some embodiments of the present invention, when the target application is updated from the first attribute to the second attribute, or when the second data storage amount of the target storage area is greater than the third preset threshold, the electronic device's The system may send a command to actively refresh the first partition.

In this embodiment of the present invention, all the above-mentioned thresholds may be thresholds preset by an electronic device, or may be thresholds set by a user, which are not limited herein.

In other embodiments of the present invention, when the target application is closed or not used for a period of time, the background of the electronic device may automatically refresh the first partition.

In still other embodiments of the present invention, when the user uses the performance acceleration function for the target application, the system of the electronic device may send a command to actively refresh the first partition.

In still other embodiments of the present invention, the data storage method may further include:

In the case where the target application is uninstalled, the target storage area is released.

That is, when the user deletes the target application program from the electronic device, the target storage area needs to be released, and all the data stored in the target storage area needs to be deleted.

In some embodiments of the present invention, after releasing the target storage area, the data storage method may further include:

Disassociates the target application from the target storage area.

In this way, the target storage area can be no longer associated with the target application, and the storage area after the target storage area is released can be associated with the new frequently used application.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the data storage method may further include:

On the target application icon, display the target logo;

The target application icon is an application icon associated with the target application displayed on the display interface.

Specifically, the target identifier is used to indicate that the target application program corresponding to the target application icon has a target storage area in the first partition, which can also be understood as having an “acceleration” identifier. For example, the target identifier may be a "rocket" icon or a "☆" icon.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the target identifier may be preset by the electronic device, or may also be set by the user, which is not limited herein.

FIG. 8 shows a schematic interface diagram of an application icon display interface provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The first application icon 610 with the "☆" icon 630 may be the application icon corresponding to the application with a storage area in the first partition, and the second application icon 620 without the "☆" icon 630 may be the application icon in the first partition. An application icon corresponding to an application program that does not have a storage area in the first partition. The user can manually add a "☆" icon 630 to the lower right of the second application icon 620 without the "☆" icon 630, so that the electronic device allocates associated storage space for its corresponding application in the first partition. Therefore, through the "☆" icon 630, the user can be informed that this application is an application with high performance.

In other embodiments of the present invention, after displaying the target identifier on the target application icon, the data storage method may further include:

receiving the first input of the target identifier from the user;

In response to the first input, the data of the target category stored in the target storage area is moved to the second partition;

Free the target storage area.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the target input may be an input for canceling the target identification, such as a click input on the target identification, a long-press input, etc., and the target input may also be a first operation on the target identification, for example, in setting The cancel operation for the target ID of the target application icon in the interface. Taking the target input as the click input on the target identifier as an example, after the user clicks on the target identifier, the electronic device can determine that the user wishes to release the target storage area in the first partition. Therefore, the electronic device can respond to the target input, The data of the target category stored in the target storage area is moved to the second partition, and the target storage area is released.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the data of the target category may be valid data.

In some embodiments of the present invention, after releasing the target storage area, the data storage method may further include:

Disassociates the target application from the target storage area.

In this way, the target storage area can be no longer associated with the target application, and the storage area after the target storage area is released can be associated with the new frequently used application.

In some embodiments of the present invention, after releasing the target storage area, the data storage method may further include:

Hide target ID.

Specifically, if the target identifier is no longer displayed on the target application icon, the user can be informed that the target application program corresponding to the target application icon no longer has the target storage area in the first partition.

When using the test tool AndroBench performance test tool to test the electronic device, if the method of the prior art is used to store the data of the application program, the ordinary writing speed is only 250MB/s. Reduce, fragmented data and fragmented space will increase, and the writing speed will drop by about 30%; if the data storage method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is used to store the data of the application, the writing speed of the electronic device can reach 500MB/s. If the writing speed is occasional When descending, the speed of the electronic device can be restored to 500MB/s after standing for a period of time, so that the high performance of the electronic device can be maintained for a long time.

To sum up, in the embodiment of the present invention, since the application program can enjoy an independent high-performance storage area, the storage area has a faster read and write response speed than the ordinary storage area, and the application program in the electronic device can be improved. performance. In addition, since the read and write response speed of the application program will not be affected by the use time and fragmentation of the electronic device, the storage area can be dynamically refreshed, so that the storage area of the application program always maintains sufficient data storage capacity. The application maintains high performance for a long time.
