System and method for applying error correction code (ECC) erasure mode and clearing recorded information from a page deallocation table

A system utilizing an erasure mode in an error correction code algorithm is described that includes non-volatile memory storing a page deallocation table. A memory controller stores and retrieves data from a memory subsystem, and uses an error correction code algorithm to correct data corruption in retrieved data. An error analysis algorithm executed in a processor records instances of data corruption in the page deallocation tables and deallocates memory regions associated with multiple occurrences of data corruption at single bit locations. The error analysis algorithm further causes the memory controller to apply an erasure mode of the error correction code algorithm upon detection of a repeated pattern of data corruption across different addresses of the memory subsystem, and removes entries in the page deallocation table that correspond to data corruption addressed by application of the erasure mode.
