UFS_DEVICE_HEALTH_DESCRIPTOR structure (ufs.h)

  • Article

The UFS_DEVICE_HEALTH_DESCRIPTOR structure describes the health of a device.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  UCHAR bLength;
  UCHAR bDescriptorIDN;
  UCHAR bPreEOLInfo;
  UCHAR bDeviceLifeTimeEstA;
  UCHAR bDeviceLifeTimeEstB;
  UCHAR VendorPropInfo[32];
  ULONG dRefreshTotalCount;
  ULONG dRefreshProgress;
} UFS_DEVICE_HEALTH_DESCRIPTOR, *PUFS_DEVICE_HEALTH_DESCRIPTOR;

Members

bLength

Specifies the length, in bytes, of this descriptor.

bDescriptorIDN

Specifies the descriptor's Identification value. UFS_DEVICE_HEALTH_DESCRIPTOR will have a value of UFS_DESC_HEALTH_IDN.

bPreEOLInfo

Contains Pre-End of Life Information. This member supplies information about a device's life time as reflected by the average number of reserved blocks. Contains one of the following values:

Value Description
0x00 Member is not defined.
0x01 Normal. Consumed less than 80% of reserved blocks.
0x02 Consumed 80% of reserved blocks.
0x03 Critical. Consumed 90% of reserved blocks.
All other values Reserved for future use.

bDeviceLifeTimeEstA

bDeviceLifeTimeEstA provides an estimation of how much of a device's estimated life time has been used based on the amount of performed program/erase cycles. This calculation is vendor-specific and is referred as method A. Contains one of the following values:

Value Description
0x00 Information about device's life time not found.
0x01 0% to 10% of the device's estimated life time has been used.
0x02 10% to 20% of the device's estimated life time has been used.
0x03 20% to 30% of the device's estimated life time has been used.
0x04 30% to 40% of the device's estimated life time has been used.
0x05 40% to 50% of the device's estimated life time has been used.
0x06 50% to 60% of the device's estimated life time has been used.
0x07 60% to 70% of the device's estimated life time has been used.
0x08 70% to 80% of the device's estimated life time has been used.
0x09 80% to 90% of the device's estimated life time has been used.
0x0A 90% to 100% of the device's estimated life time has been used.
0x0B Device has exceeded it's estimated life time.
All other values Reserved for future use.

bDeviceLifeTimeEstB

bDeviceLifeTimeEstB provides an estimation of how much of a device's estimated life time has been used based on the amount of performed program/erase cycles. This calculation is vendor-specific and is referred as method B. Contains the same possible values as bDeviceLifeTimeEstA.

VendorPropInfo[32]

Reserved for vendor use.

dRefreshTotalCount

dRefreshProgress

Remarks

The UFS Host Controller contains a series of configurable Descriptor Tables, which allow the driver to query and configure the host controller’s capabilities. Query the Requested Descriptor from the Descriptor Table on the device.
