As a result, more and more designers are beginning to employ multiple processors for decentralized management of control, traffic, and functions. Currently, the most common approach is to use two processors, one biased towards control management and the other biased towards business processing. Of course, there are also cases where more processors are used to meet different demands.
The increase in the number of processors makes the system architecture clearer, but at the same time brings new problems. With the increase of the number of processors in the system, the number of peripheral devices required by the minimum system is increased, the cost of a hardware circuit is increased, and the complexity of hardware design is increased; meanwhile, the starting process of the system is very complex due to the cooperative relationship among the processors, so that the difficulty of system control is greatly increased, and the complexity of software design is indirectly improved.
In the prior art, a designer isolates the minimum system of each processor, each processor has an independent ROM (Read Only Memory) and RAM (Random-Access Memory), and then interconnects a plurality of systems through serial, parallel or more complex communication interfaces, so as to greatly increase the complexity of hardware design and software design along with the increase of the number of processors in the system, which cannot effectively utilize hardware resources and cannot optimize software flow.
On the basis of ensuring the system function integrity and the system structure layering, if more peripheral devices can be shared, the control method of the processor can be simplified, so that hardware resources are repeatedly utilized, the complexity of a hardware design scheme can be greatly reduced, the flow of system control can be greatly simplified, and the complexity of software design can be reduced.

The host system 100 includes a processor CPU110, a ROM120, a RAM 130, a master-slave communication interface 140, and an external communication interface 150.

The main flow of the method for starting up the slave processor in this embodiment will be further described with reference to the flow chart shown in fig. 2 on the basis of the apparatus of the present invention.
The flow chart is preceded by the master system 100 having been started and the slave system 200 has been in a reset state. Next, the start-up procedure of the slave system 200 includes the steps of:
step S110, the CPU110 of the host system 100 configures the shared control module 310 to obtain the control right of the ROM320, where the configuration mainly refers to setting the logic of the shared control module 310, including setting a register, or setting the logic state of a specific pin, etc.;
step S120, the shared control module 310 processes the address, data and control signal according to the configuration, and gives the access control right of the ROM320 to the CPU110 of the main system 100 to receive the control thereof, where the process includes switching the address, data and control signal to the main system 100, if there is a clock signal in the control signal to eliminate the jitter occurring in the clock switching, so that the main system 100 can access the ROM320 sharing device in the multiprocessor shared control apparatus 300;
step S130, the CPU110 of the master system 100 obtains the information of the programs and data necessary for the start-up of the slave system 200 stored in the ROM 320; if the required program or data is not complete for the start-up from the system 200, the required program or data is acquired from the external communication interface 150 of the main system 100 and stored in the ROM 320;
step S140, the ROM320 has already stored information of programs and data required for starting from the system 200 at this time;
step S150, the CPU110 of the master system configures the shared control module 310 to relinquish control of the ROM320 and to communicate with the slave system 200;
step S160, the shared control module 310 processes the address, data and control signals according to the configuration, and receives control from the CPU210 of the system 200;
step S170, the CPU110 of the master system 100 configures the shared control module 310 to start the CPU210 of the slave system 200;
step S180, the shared control module 310 processes the address, data and control signals according to the configuration, and starts the CPU210 of the slave system 200;
step S190, the slave system 200 is started up by the CPU210, the starting program and data are read from the ROM320, and after initialization, a link establishment request is sent to the CPU110 of the master system 100 through the master-slave communication interface 240;
in step S200, the master-slave communication interface 140 of the master system 100 responds to the link establishment request received from the CPU210 of the slave system to establish a communication connection.
As described above, the slave system 200 does not include the ROM but is provided in the multiprocessor shared control apparatus 300, and the ROM320 in the multiprocessor shared control apparatus 300 is also available for other slave systems 200, thereby reducing the number of components and the cost. Meanwhile, the master system 100 can control the state of the CPU210 in the slave system 200 through the shared control module, so that the starting control flow of the slave system 200 is greatly simplified, and the design difficulty of system control software is reduced.
All programs and data required for the start-up of the slave system 200 are stored in the ROM320 by the master system 100 through the shared control module, rather than being transferred between the master-slave communication interface 140 and the master-slave communication interface 240, reducing the difficulty of software development of the slave system 200. Meanwhile, all programs and data required by the starting of the slave system 200 and the starting flow of the slave system 200 are controlled by the master system 100, so that the reuse rate of the code of the master system can be greatly increased, and the software development difficulty of the master system is also reduced.
In the above embodiment, only one slave system exists, but the multiprocessor system of the present invention may further include a plurality of slave systems:
FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a multiprocessor system of the present invention that is symmetrical from the system. As shown, the master system 100 has a first slave system 2001 and a second slave system 2002 or even more slave systems, and each slave system has the same structure. In this case, the multiprocessor system may employ only one multiprocessor shared control apparatus 300, and the master system 100 is connected to each slave system via the multiprocessor shared control apparatus 300, and is also connected via a master-slave communication interface. The shared devices in the multiprocessor shared control apparatus 300 may be one or more, as required, and may be of the ROM, RAM or other storage device type. After the master system 100 starts the selected slave system according to the foregoing steps, the next slave system may be started according to the same steps, and the process may be sequentially performed until all the slave systems are started.
FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of a multiprocessor system of the present invention that is asymmetric from the system. As shown, the master system 100 is provided with a first slave system 2001, a second slave system 2002, an nth slave system 200n, an mth slave system 200m and more slave systems, wherein the first slave system 2001 and the second slave system 2002 have the same structure and form a class of slave systems; the nth slave system 200n and the mth slave system 200m have the same structure and form another class of slave systems. However, these two types of slave systems are not identical in structure, and thus constitute a multiprocessor system in which the slave systems are asymmetric. In this case, two multiprocessor sharing control devices, the first multiprocessor sharing control device 3001 and the second multiprocessor sharing control device 3002, respectively, may be provided for the multiprocessor system so as to share hardware resources to the maximum extent while ensuring the functional integrity of the system. Such a slave system including a first slave system 2001 and a second slave system 2002 is connected to the master system 100 through a first multiprocessor shared control device 3001, and is also connected through a master-slave communication interface. All programs and data required for starting the class of slave systems are stored in the shared device of the first multiprocessor shared control apparatus 3001, which may be one or more as needed, and may be of the ROM, RAM or other storage device type; such slave systems, including the nth slave system 200n and the mth slave system 200m, are connected to the master system 100 through the second multiprocessor shared control apparatus 3002, and are also connected through the master-slave communication interface. All programs and data necessary for starting the class of slave systems are stored in the shared device of the second multiprocessor shared control apparatus 3002, which may be one or more, as required, of the type ROM, RAM or other storage device. After the master system 100 is started, the corresponding slave system is started through the first multiprocessor sharing control device 3001 and the second multiprocessor sharing control device 3002, respectively, according to the foregoing steps. If one slave system depends on the starting of the other slave system, the corresponding sequence requirement should be complied in the starting process, and the starting can be started from the slave system with the least dependence at present; i.e. starting from the slave processor that is least dependent on currently.
In the multiprocessor system described above, the first multiprocessor shared control device 3001 and the second multiprocessor shared control device 3002 may be distinguished by addresses, data buses, other buses, or specific signals. For example, two multiprocessor shared control devices may be mapped into different address spaces by address mapping. Once the multi-processor sharing control device is distinguished, each slave system sharing the sharing device can be distinguished naturally, and corresponding processing is further completed.
It is apparent that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and modifications and variations may be made according to actual needs without departing from the scope and gist of the present invention.
