Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in the present application without any creative effort belong to the protection scope of the present application.
The core of the application is to provide a method, a device and a medium for recovering user configuration data, which are used for avoiding the abnormal recovery condition of the configuration data and improving the accuracy of the configuration data.
In order that those skilled in the art will better understand the disclosure, the following detailed description will be given with reference to the accompanying drawings.
It should be noted that the method for restoring user configuration data provided by the present application may be used for saving and restoring firmware user configuration data such as a Basic Input Output System (BIOS), a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), and the like.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a method for recovering user configuration data provided in the present application, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes:
s1: and before updating the firmware, acquiring initial configuration parameters of the firmware and writing the initial configuration parameters into a storage area.
In a specific implementation, before updating the firmware, an initial configuration parameter of the firmware set by a user needs to be acquired first, and after the initial configuration parameter is acquired, the initial configuration parameter is used as configuration data of the firmware, and the initial configuration parameter is written into a storage area for subsequent calling. It can be understood that, in order to increase the security of storage, a plurality of storage areas may be set, and the initial configuration parameters are written into all the storage areas, so that when calling, whether the initial configuration parameters are disordered can be judged by checking the consistency of the initial configuration parameters in each storage area, so as to ensure the accuracy of the called initial configuration parameters. In addition, after the initial configuration parameters are written into the storage area, in order to facilitate the examination of the initial configuration parameters during calling, the version information of the initial configuration parameters, the data storage time of the storage area, the time stamp and other data can be written into the storage area, so that the fault tolerance of the initial configuration parameters is improved.
S2: after the firmware is updated, calling the initial configuration parameters in the storage area, and judging whether the initial configuration parameters are valid; if not, go to S3; if valid, the process proceeds to S4.
After the firmware is updated, the user configuration item needs to be updated, and the initial configuration parameters in the storage area can be called to restore the user configuration data. After the initial configuration parameters are called, in order to check the validity of the initial configuration parameters, whether the called initial configuration parameters are valid or not can be judged through the data storage time and the time stamp of the storage area. Specifically, a time stamp can be generated each time the initial configuration parameter is operated, whether the initial configuration parameter is tampered after being written into the storage area can be judged according to the time stamp, and if the initial configuration parameter is tampered, the invalidity of the initial configuration parameter can be determined; in addition, the storage time of the initial configuration parameter can be obtained according to the time stamp for writing the initial configuration parameter into the storage area and the time stamp for calling the initial configuration parameter from the storage area, the storage time of the initial configuration parameter is compared with the data storage time of the corresponding storage area, if the storage time of the initial configuration parameter is greater than the data storage time of the storage area, the initial configuration parameter called from the storage area can be determined to be invalid, and if the storage time of the initial configuration parameter is not greater than the data storage time of the storage area, the called initial configuration parameter can be determined to be valid. It should be noted that, in a specific implementation, the manner of determining whether the initial configuration parameter is valid is not limited to the determination according to the data storage time and the timestamp of the storage area described in this embodiment, and an identifier that is written in the storage area and is valid may also be stored in the storage area, and whether the initial configuration parameter is valid may be determined by the identifier during calling.
S3: the configuration data is restored using the default configuration parameters of the firmware.
It is understood that after determining that the initial configuration parameters in the storage area are invalid, the configuration data is not restored by using the initial configuration parameters in the storage area, but the configuration parameters are restored by using the default configuration parameters of the firmware to start the firmware. It should be noted that the default configuration parameters of the firmware are always stored in the firmware, are not affected by firmware update, and are inherent attributes of the firmware.
S4: comparing whether the version information of the initial configuration parameters in the storage area is consistent with the version information of the firmware; if not, go to S5; if they match, the process proceeds to S6.
After the initial configuration parameters in the storage area are judged to be valid, because the initial configuration parameters in the storage area may be distorted, such as increased, decreased or sequential adjustment, in order to avoid confusion of configuration data after firmware upgrade, it is necessary to compare whether the version information of the initial configuration parameters in the storage area is consistent with the version information of the current firmware; if not, the initial configuration parameters in the storage area cannot be used to restore the configuration data, and then step S5 is performed to initialize the storage area, restore the configuration data using the default configuration parameters of the firmware, and re-acquire the initial configuration parameters input by the user to write into the initialized storage area; if so, it is determined that the initial configuration parameters in the storage area are available for restoring the configuration data, and then the process proceeds to step S6, where the configuration data is restored using the initial configuration parameters in the storage area.
S5: the storage area is initialized and S3 is entered.
S6: the configuration data is restored using the initial configuration parameters.
The embodiment provides a method for recovering user configuration data, which writes initial configuration parameters into a storage area before updating firmware; after the firmware is updated, calling the initial configuration parameters in the storage area, and judging whether the initial configuration parameters are valid; if the configuration data is invalid, restoring the configuration data by using the default configuration parameters of the firmware; if the version information of the initial configuration parameters in the storage area is valid, comparing whether the version information of the initial configuration parameters in the storage area is consistent with the version information of the firmware; if not, initializing the storage area, and entering a step of recovering configuration data by using default configuration parameters of the firmware; and if so, restoring the configuration data by using the initial configuration parameters. Therefore, when the version information of the initial configuration parameters in the storage area is inconsistent with the version information of the firmware, the configuration data is not restored to the initial configuration parameters, but the default configuration parameters are used for restoring the configuration data, so that the condition of data abnormity caused by inconsistent versions is effectively avoided, and the accuracy of the configuration data is improved.
On the basis of the above embodiment, if there are multiple storage areas, in order to ensure that each storage area is valid, before writing the initial configuration parameters into the storage areas, it is further necessary to check the validity of each storage area. The method comprises the following steps:
checking whether an invalid storage area exists in each storage area;
if so, the invalid storage area is initialized and the process proceeds to S1;
if not, the process proceeds to S1.
In a specific implementation, if the data is stored in the storage area in advance, it may be determined that the storage area is invalid, and in addition, if the data storage time of the storage area is short, it may also be determined that the storage area is invalid, specifically, the data storage time of the storage area may be compared with a preset time threshold, if the data storage time of the storage area is greater than the time threshold, it may be determined that the storage area is valid, otherwise, it is determined that the storage area is invalid. It should be noted that the time threshold is related to the update period of the firmware, and may be set by a user according to experience in a specific implementation, which is not specifically described in this embodiment.
In this embodiment, before writing the initial configuration parameters into each storage area, it is checked whether an invalid storage area exists in each storage area, if an invalid storage area exists, the invalid storage area is initialized first, and then the initial configuration parameters are written into each storage area, so that the reliability of the initial configuration parameters stored in each storage area is effectively ensured by ensuring the validity of each storage area.
On the basis of the above embodiment, after the initial configuration parameters are written into the storage area, in order to ensure the accuracy of the written initial configuration parameters, it is also necessary to check the consistency of the written initial configuration parameters and the current configuration parameters of the firmware. The method comprises the following steps:
reading back the current configuration parameters of the firmware and checking whether the current configuration parameters of the firmware are consistent with the initial configuration parameters stored in each storage area;
if not, initializing each storage area, and proceeding to S1;
and if the initial configuration parameters are inconsistent for multiple times, determining that the initial configuration parameters are failed to be written in, and alarming.
Specifically, the current configuration parameters of the firmware can be read, the current configuration parameters of the firmware are compared with the initial configuration parameters in each storage area, if the values and the sequences of the current configuration parameters of the firmware and the initial configuration parameters in the storage areas are consistent, the current configuration parameters of the firmware can be determined to be consistent with the initial configuration parameters in the storage areas, and otherwise, the current configuration parameters of the firmware and the initial configuration parameters in the storage areas are determined to be inconsistent. It will be appreciated that saving the initial configuration parameters may be determined to be complete only if the current configuration parameters of the firmware are satisfied to be consistent with the initial configuration parameters in the memory area. When the current configuration parameters of the firmware are inconsistent with the initial configuration parameters in the storage area, initializing the corresponding storage area, acquiring the initial configuration parameters again, writing the acquired initial configuration parameters into the corresponding storage area, and checking again; if the current configuration parameters of the firmware are not consistent with the initial configuration parameters in the storage area after multiple times of verification, the writing failure of the initial configuration parameters can be determined, and at the moment, a user needs to be reminded to check the firmware and each storage area in an alarm mode so as to find out the reason of the writing failure.
In the embodiment, the current configuration parameters of the firmware are compared with the initial configuration parameters in each storage area to check the consistency of the current configuration parameters and the initial configuration parameters, and the accuracy of the written initial configuration parameters is ensured by checking the consistency of the current configuration parameters and the initial configuration parameters.
On the basis of the above embodiment, if the version information of the initial configuration parameters in the storage areas is consistent with the version information of the firmware, and in order to verify the accuracy of the initial configuration parameters in each storage area, before restoring the configuration data using the initial configuration parameters, consistency check needs to be performed on the initial configuration parameters in each storage area. The method comprises the following steps:
checking whether the initial configuration parameters in each storage area are consistent;
and if the initial configuration parameters are inconsistent, arbitrating the initial configuration parameters in each storage area, and recovering the configuration data according to the arbitration result.
In a specific implementation, whether the initial configuration parameters in each storage area are consistent or not can be checked by comparing whether the numerical values and the sequence of the initial configuration parameters in each storage area are consistent or not. If the values and the sequence of the initial configuration parameters in each storage area are consistent, the initial configuration parameters in each storage area can be determined to be consistent, otherwise, the initial configuration parameters in each storage area are determined to be inconsistent; if not, the initial configuration parameters in each memory area can be arbitrated through the existing arbitration algorithm to recover the configuration data according to the arbitration result, specifically, valid parameters can be identified from the initial configuration parameters in each memory area according to the arbitration algorithm, and the identified valid parameters can be used to try to recover the configuration data.
In the embodiment, the accuracy of the initial configuration parameters in each storage area is verified by performing consistency check on the initial configuration parameters in each storage area, when the initial configuration parameters in each storage area are inconsistent, the initial configuration parameters in each storage area are arbitrated, and the configuration data is recovered according to the arbitration result, so that the possibility of recovering the configuration data is effectively improved.
On the basis of the above embodiment, when it is checked that the initial configuration parameters in the storage areas do not completely match, it is determined that there is an invalid parameter, and in order to recover the configuration data, the invalid parameter needs to be further processed. The method comprises the following steps:
judging whether the initial configuration parameters are all invalid;
if the invalid parameters are not all invalid, removing the invalid parameters from each storage area, synchronizing the invalid parameters to an abnormal area, and entering S1;
if none is valid, the storage areas are initialized and the process proceeds to S3.
Specifically, effective parameters in the initial configuration parameters in each storage area can be identified through an arbitration algorithm, and then invalid parameters in the initial configuration parameters can be obtained; if the initial configuration parameters are invalid, initializing each storage area, and recovering configuration data by using default configuration parameters of the firmware; if the initial configuration parameters are not uniformly invalid, invalid parameters can be removed from each storage area, and the valid parameters in each storage area are tried to be used for recovering the configuration data so as to improve the possibility of recovering the configuration data.
In the embodiment, after the existence of the invalid parameters is determined, whether the initial configuration parameters in the storage area are all invalid is judged, when the initial configuration parameters are all invalid, the default configuration parameters are used for recovering the configuration data, when the initial configuration parameters are not all invalid, the invalid parameters are removed, and the configuration data are tried to be recovered by using the remaining valid parameters, so that the possibility of recovering the configuration data is effectively improved, and in addition, the invalid parameters can be obtained by a user by synchronizing the invalid parameters to an abnormal area so as to remind the user to input the corresponding parameters again.
On the basis of the above embodiments, in order to facilitate tracking, in this embodiment, a timestamp is generated when the initial configuration parameters are acquired and written into the storage area, and when it is checked that the stored initial configuration parameters are abnormal, tracking can be performed through the timestamp to find out the cause of the data abnormality. The method comprises the following steps:
generating a time stamp when acquiring the initial configuration parameter and writing the initial configuration parameter into the storage area;
the time stamp is saved.
Specifically, a timestamp is generated when the initial configuration parameter is acquired and written into the storage area, and in addition, after the initial configuration parameter is stored into the storage area, the timestamp is updated every time the initial configuration parameter is operated, so that the timestamp is queried to track the reason of data abnormality when the initial configuration parameter is abnormal by storing the timestamp.
In the embodiment, when the initial configuration parameters are acquired and written into the storage area, the time stamp is generated and stored, and when the initial configuration parameters stored in the storage area are abnormal, the time stamp can be queried to track the abnormal data, so that the reason for the abnormal data can be found.
