Embodiment
Object, technical scheme and the advantage of the embodiment of the present invention are clearer, below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the present invention is clearly described, obviously, described embodiment is the present invention's part embodiment, instead of whole embodiment.
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the preferred embodiment of the present invention is elaborated.
Said preferred embodiment can being applied in following scene below, as: storage system power down, the in the situation that storage system being powered at standby power supply, carried out by the controller in storage system, data in internal memory are write to the nonvolatile memory in storage system, and the nonvolatile memory in storage system can be hard disk, disk etc.
Consult shown in Fig. 1, a kind of method of storing data is provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the detailed process of the method is as follows:
Step 100: controller, in the time of definite storage system power down, is moved the partial data in internal memory in Cache;
Step 110: controller is by the partial data write non-volatile memory in Cache;
Step 120: controller, by the process of the partial data write non-volatile memory in Cache, saves as self-refresh state in arranging, wherein, inside existing can not be accessed in the process of self-refresh state.
In the embodiment of the present invention, triggering has the data-moving in internal memory to the trigger condition of Cache multiple, for example, can be the power-off signal receiving, and certainly, in actual applications, may be also other trigger condition, describes in detail no longer one by one at this.
In the embodiment of the present invention, in step 100, said partial data can be all data in internal memory, can be also a part of data in internal memory, is specially how many data, depends on the size of data in EMS memory, and the size of Cache.
For example, the size of the data in internal memory is 30M, and the size of Cache is 10M, and the partial data in step 100 is just a part of data in internal memory, if the 30M data of storing in internal memory all will be stored to nonvolatile memory, circulate and carry out 3 step 100-120.If the size of data in internal memory is 10M, and the size of Cache is 10M, the partial data in step 100 is just the total data in internal memory, if the 10M data of storing in internal memory all will be stored to nonvolatile memory, carries out 1 step 100-120 just passable.
In the embodiment of the present invention, in internal memory, to move to the data of nonvolatile memory can be dirty data, dirty data comprises polytype, for example, can be dirty business datum, or, also can be dirty system data, certainly, in practical application, may be also the data of other types, describe in detail no longer one by one at this.
Cache in the embodiment of the present invention can be an independently device, also can be arranged in other hardware, for example, be arranged in CPU, or be positioned in FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array, field-programmable gate array) (being the SRAM in FPGA).
In actual applications, because the storage space of Cache is limited, the size of all data in possible internal memory is far longer than the size of the storage space of Cache, at this moment, can not once all data in internal memory be all copied in Cache, therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, by after in the partial data write non-volatile memory in Cache, the method for storage data also comprises the steps:
Step 130: whether all controller judges the data write non-volatile memory in internal memory, if so, performs step 140; Otherwise internal memory is exited self-refresh state by controller, and return to execution step 100.
Step 140: close storage system;
In the embodiment of the present invention, in the case of determining the inwhole write non-volatile memories of data in internal memory, internal memory is exited to self-refresh state, and continue to carry out the partial data in internal memory is moved to the step in Cache, if the data in internal memory are not all when write non-volatile memory, internal memory is exited to self-refresh state, and again perform step 100-120.If re-executed after step 100-120, in internal memory, still there are data not all when write non-volatile memory, also internal memory will be exited to self-refresh state, re-execute step 100-120, until the whole write non-volatile memories of data in internal memory, this is a process that circulation is carried out.
That is to say, each time by the data Replica in internal memory to Cache, all to make internal memory enter self-refresh state, reduce the power consumption of internal memory, and in specified data after Cache is stored to nonvolatile memory, if while not being stored to the data in nonvolatile memory in addition in internal memory, also to continue these remaining data to be stored to nonvolatile memory, and now, want access memory, therefore, control internal memory and exit self-refresh state, to make the internal memory can be accessed, again remaining data is copied to Cache, now, after remaining data is copied to Cache, also to again control internal memory and enter self-refresh state, it is accessed so that internal memory is forbidden, then, remaining data is stored to nonvolatile memory from Cache.
For example, the storage space of Cache is 15MB, and the size of data in internal memory is 90MB, the storage space in the fixed address space arranging in internal memory is set to 15MB, need so storing process six times, the data of 90MB in internal memory could be stored to hard disk completely, in the time storing for the first time, first by the data Replica of 15MB in internal memory to the fixed address space of internal memory, then, to in the fixed address space of the datarams of 15MB, be copied to Cache, and control internal memory and enter self-refresh state, and the data of 15MB are stored to hard disk from Cache, owing to still having the data of 75MB from memory to hard disk, therefore, continue access memory, now, control internal memory and exit self-refresh state, then store for the second time, in the time storing for the second time with storage class for the first time seemingly, still will be first by the data Replica of 15MB in internal memory to the fixed address space of internal memory, then, to in the fixed address space of the dirty data internal memory of 15MB, be copied to Cache, and control internal memory and enter self-refresh state, and the dirty data of 15MB is stored to hard disk from Cache, due to after storage for the second time, still have the data of 60MB will be from memory to hard disk, therefore, continue access memory, store for the third time, for the third time, the 4th time, the 5th time, the 6th storing process and said process are similar, describe in detail no longer one by one at this.
In the embodiment of the present invention, for example a CPU (for example, E5-2620) there are 6 cores, the each core of CPU has the Cache of 2.5MB, CPU altogether can buffer memory 15MB data, the size of the storage space in the fixed address space arranging in internal memory is 15MB, the time that CPU is copied to Cache by the data of 15MB from internal memory is 15MB/ (1333M*8*4*0.8)=0.4ms, CPU is saved in the data of 15MB the time=15MB/75MB=200ms of hard disk from Cache, due to CPU by the data of 15MB after internal memory is copied to Cache, control internal memory and entered self-refresh state, the data of 15MB are saved in from Cache in the time 200ms of hard disk at CPU, internal memory cannot be accessed, therefore, the power consumption of internal memory has just reduced, and CPU by the data of 15MB from internal memory be copied to Cache during this period of time the power consumption of internal memory only for 0.4W, if and adopt the words of scheme of the prior art, the power consumption of internal memory is 7W, the power consumption of internal memory of the prior art is far longer than the power consumption of internal memory in the embodiment of the present invention, and then, the power-dissipation-reduced of internal memory in the embodiment of the present invention, the electric energy that controller utilizes improves.
In the embodiment of the present invention, for example FPGA has the internal SRAM of 5MB as Cache, can buffer memory 5MB data, the size of the storage space in the fixed address space arranging in internal memory is 5MB, the time that FPGA is copied to Cache by the data of 5MB from internal memory is 5MB/ (1600M*8*2*0.8)=0.24ms, FPGA is saved in the data of 5MB the time=5MB/75MB=67ms of hard disk from Cache, due to FPGA by the data of 5MB after internal memory is copied to Cache, control internal memory and entered self-refresh state, the data of 5MB are saved in from Cache in the time period of time 67ms of hard disk at FPGA, internal memory cannot be accessed, therefore, the power consumption of internal memory has just reduced, and FPGA by the data of 5MB from internal memory be copied to Cache during this period of time the power consumption of internal memory only for 0.2W, if and adopt the words of scheme of the prior art, the power consumption of internal memory is 7W, the power consumption of internal memory of the prior art is far longer than the power consumption of internal memory in the embodiment of the present invention, and then, the power-dissipation-reduced of internal memory in the embodiment of the present invention, the electric energy that controller utilizes improves.
In the embodiment of the present invention, by the partial data in internal memory move mode in Cache have multiple, for example, optional, can be in the following way:
Fixed address space is set in internal memory, and wherein, fixed address space can be accessed by Cache; Partial data in internal memory is copied to fixed address space, and partial data is copied to Cache from fixed address space.
In the embodiment of the present invention, in order to improve storage efficiency, when fixed address space is set in internal memory, storage space that can this fixed address space is set to equate with the storage space of Cache.
For example, a CPU (for example, E5-2620) has 6 cores, the each core of CPU has the Cache of 2.5MB, CPU altogether can buffer memory 15MB data, while so fixed address space being set in internal memory, storage space that can this fixed address space is set to 15MB.
In the embodiment of the present invention, when the partial data in internal memory is moved in Cache, also can be in the following way:
Adopt DMA (Direct Memory Access, direct memory access) mode to move in Cache the partial data in internal memory.
In actual applications, while carrying out every single stepping, all on the basis of run time version, could carry out, and in prior art, in order to reduce the power consumption of internal memory, by the data Replica in internal memory to Cache, internal memory has been entered to self-refresh state, internal memory cannot be accessed, and original run time version is stored in internal memory, therefore, in order to make data successfully be stored to nonvolatile memory from Cache, before by the partial data write non-volatile memory in Cache, also comprise following operation:
By the run time version buffer memory in internal memory, to Cache, run time version is used for data write non-volatile memory.
In this operation, the Cache of buffer memory run time version can be the Cache in CPU, certainly, need to use the equipment of run time version also can be other executable operations time, describes in detail no longer one by one at this.
Wherein, the Cache of buffer memory run time version can be the Cache in CPU, in Cache and internal memory, includes run time version, and what controller read is the data of the Cache in CPU, instead of data in internal memory.
In embodiments of the present invention, the run time version buffer memory in internal memory, to Cache, is specifically as follows the partial data write non-volatile memory in Cache;
Based on the run time version in Cache, by the partial data write non-volatile memory in Cache.
In the invention process, nonvolatile memory has polytype, for example, optional, can be hard disk, disk.
Further, in order to improve the efficiency of storage, nonvolatile memory can be also solid hard disk.
Can find out from said process, the storage means that the embodiment of the present invention provides, due to after system power failure, controller is by the process of the data write non-volatile memory of internal memory, first the data in internal memory are write to Cache, and make internal memory enter self-refresh state after the data in internal memory being write to Cache.Owing to being can not be accessed in the interior process that has self-refresh state, like this, the power consumption of internal memory be lower, negligible.Thereby reduced after storage system power down, in the process of storage data, the power consumption of internal memory, has extended controller and has stored the data that are buffered in internal memory into effective time in hard disk.
In order to understand better the embodiment of the present invention, below provide concrete application scenarios, for the process of storage data, make and describing in further detail, in embodiments of the present invention, taking the storage space of the Cache of CPU as 15MB, and the size of data in internal memory is that 30MB is that example describes.As shown in Figure 2:
Step 200: controller arranges fixed address space in internal memory, wherein, the storage size of this fixed address is 15MB;
In this step, fixed address space can be accessed by Cache.
Step 210: controller, in the time of definite storage system power down, is copied to the fixed address space in internal memory by the data of 15MB in internal memory and run time version;
Step 220: controller is copied to the data of the 15MB in fixed address space and run time version in the Cache of CPU;
Step 230: controller arranges internal memory and enters self-refresh state, to make the internal memory can not be accessed;
Step 240: controller is based on run time version, by the data Replica of 15MB in the Cache of CPU to solid state hard disc;
Step 250: controller judges whether the data in internal memory all write after solid state hard disc, if so, perform step 260, otherwise internal memory is exited self-refresh state by controller, and return and carry out execution step 210;
