Abstract
The invention discloses a novel BIOS (basic input output system) Debug method. By the aid of a main board BIOS and a main board BMC (baseboard management controller), position points and error codes are added at different hardware initialization stages in the boot guiding process of a BIOS, fault codes are added according to different hardware initialization failure conditions, contents are outputted by a system interface, the BMC can read the contents of the system interface in real time, and complete contents can be displayed in a WEB mode. Compared with a traditional DEBUG method, the method does not need to be assisted by other hardware debug tools, a customer can be helped to solve problems by a BMC LAN (local area network) remote debug without reaching a customer site, and the method is simple, convenient and effective and has a great application value in the pre-development process of the BIOS or in the late customer problem solving process.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to server technology field, be specifically related to a kind of method of novel B IOS Debug.
Background technology
Along with internet, cloud computing, the development of the technology such as large data, various industry is more and more higher for the requirement of the Stability and dependability of server system, server system is internet, cloud computing, Internet of Things, the hardware foundation of the technology such as high-performance calculation, reliable and stable server hardware is the key of above Industry Quick Development, along with the development of server technology, various new hardware board, equipment all will be integrated on server master board, in this case, server there will be and starts unsuccessfully in start-up course, to delay machine problem, how quick diagnosis goes out the delay reason of machine of system is the key that Deterministic service device system runs well.
BIOS is the software of the bottom, is integrated on server master board, is used to the soul of initialization server hardware and guidance system start, the different phase started, as required, BIOS can be allowed by IO PORT80h mouth, export different location points and failure code.BIOS is in the process of initialization motherboard hardware and guidance system start, and by reading the content of 80h PORT, we just can understand fast, and server is current is in what stage of startup, and whether the current generation is normal.
BMC baseboard controller is a mini system independent of mainboard HOST system, is used for providing support to the health status of mainboard HOST system, telemanagement.In system starting process, BMC can read the content of IO PORT 80h and preserve, and by analyzing the content that reads, just can make diagnosis, and judge system whether normal system, the machine problem if generation startup is delayed, can quick diagnosis questions and prospect.
Summary of the invention
The technical problem to be solved in the present invention is: the present invention proposes to be checked by out-band method, arrange the method for BIOS parameter, is checked and arrange BIOS parameter by the mode of long-range connection BMC, keeper without the need to machine room just can Remote Acquisitioning with BIOS parameter is set.
The method of tradition DEBUG BIOS, add mark unloading phase of different in bios code, check by outputting to serial ports, what stage current BIOS has performed.In actual DEBUG process, usually there will be such problem, owing to writing too much DEBUG code to serial ports, cause BIOS to increase start-up time, problem cannot reappear.Tradition DEBUG mode, needs serial ports instrument, is connected to DEBUG computer, can only local operation, cannot long-rangely carry out.Relative to traditional DEBUG method, this method is characterised in that 1) assist without the need to other hardware debug tool; 2) can being dealt with problems by the long-range debug of BMC LAN, client can be helped to deal with problems without the need to arriving curstomer's site.The contrast of two kinds of methods as shown in Figure 1.The method is effectively simple and convenient, no matter be to deal with problems very large using value in BIOS early development process or later stage customers' place.
The technical solution adopted in the present invention is:
A kind of method of novel B IOS Debug, in conjunction with mainboard BIOS and mainboard BMC, guide in the process of start at BIOS, at different hardware initial phase, point of addition point and error code, added failure code for different hardware initialization failure scenarios, these contents exported by system interface, by different failure codes and location point information, we can understand fast current server start residing for stage and startup separator reason;
BMC can read the content of system interface in real time, and complete content can be shown by WEB mode, and such system manager just can understand system by network remote and start situation, and quick position is dealt with problems.
Described system interface is PORT 80h.
Described method step is as follows:
The first step: write bios software, CPU the device initialize such as internal memory, PCIE, USB process (A1---An stage) point of addition point and failure code information;
Second: the bios software write is burnt in server, power on, in startup different phase, BIOS meeting output position information and failure code information are to system interface;
3rd step: the position that BMC reading system interface exports and failure message code, carries out quick Debug by BMC LAN remote band is outer to BIOS start-up course.
Beneficial effect of the present invention: the inventive method, relative to traditional DEBUG method, is assisted without the need to other hardware debug tool; Can be dealt with problems by the long-range debug of BMC LAN, client can be helped to deal with problems without the need to arriving curstomer's site, the method is effectively simple and convenient, no matter be to deal with problems very large using value in BIOS early development process or later stage customers' place.

Embodiment
Below according to Figure of description, in conjunction with specific embodiments, the present invention is further described:
A kind of method of novel B IOS Debug, in conjunction with mainboard BIOS and mainboard BMC, guide in the process of start at BIOS, at different hardware initial phase, point of addition point and error code, added failure code for different hardware initialization failure scenarios, these contents exported by system interface, by different failure codes and location point information, we can understand fast current server start residing for stage and startup separator reason;
BMC can read the content of system interface in real time, and complete content can be shown by WEB mode, and such system manager just can understand system by network remote and start situation, and quick position is dealt with problems.
Described system interface is PORT 80h.
As shown in Figure 2, described method step is as follows:
The first step: write bios software, CPU the device initialize such as internal memory, PCIE, USB process (A1---An stage) point of addition point and failure code information;
Second: the bios software write is burnt in server, power on, in startup different phase, BIOS meeting output position information and failure code information are to system interface PORT 80h;
3rd step: the position that BMC reading system interface PORT 80h exports and failure message code, carries out quick Debug by BMC LAN remote band is outer to BIOS start-up course.
Above embodiment is only for illustration of the present invention; and be not limitation of the present invention; the those of ordinary skill of relevant technical field; without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; can also make a variety of changes and modification; therefore all equivalent technical schemes also belong to category of the present invention, and scope of patent protection of the present invention should be defined by the claims.
