Abstract
The invention provides a method for quickly updating firmware and guiding the firmware to enter an operating system, which relates to the field of large-scale testing of computers and comprises the following steps: 1) determining that a first starting item of the machine is bootbroken-instell; 2) placing the firmware files and tools in a U disk or a hard disk; 3) after entering UEFIshell, the machine enters a file system for storing firmware files and tools, and automatically runs a firmware updating command; 4) after the firmware is updated, if the firmware does not need to be restarted and activated, the program automatically calls an operating system boot file and starts the operating system to perform a diagnostic test; 5) if the firmware needs to be restarted and activated after being updated, the machine automatically enters the uefisherll after being restarted, the program directly calls the operating system boot file, and the operating system is booted to carry out the diagnosis test. The invention does not need to load an operating system, thereby reducing the updating time; the requirement of a firmware updating tool on the operating system is not considered, and the updating process is simplified.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to computing machine large scale test field, particularly relate to a kind of quick firmware and upgrade and guide the method entering operating system.
Background technology
In current computer large scale test flow process, the firmware that diagnostic test mostly will carry out BIOS, BMC and various PCIe card upgrades.
In current testing process, diagnostic test mostly carries out firmware renewal in DOS, Linux, Windows operating system, and the online firmware that the overwhelming majority will carry out the chips such as BIOS, BMC and various PCIe card upgrades.Some factories upgrade under DOS, and some factories upgrade at operating system ends such as Linux, Windows.Under the current model, there are the following problems:
(1) DOS environment directly can not start Linux, need use instrument or amendment startup file, and UEFIBIOS does not support DOS gradually.
(2) no matter need start up system as upgraded firmware at Linux/Windows system end, be that PXE start-up mode or hard disk startup pattern loading system all will expend the long period.
(3) upgrading firmware at Linux/Windows system end to rely on to some extent system, need to adjust operating system, as installed driving, corresponding tool etc., being unfavorable for factory's large scale test.
(4) a lot of firmware upgrades needs and restarts, when the parts needing to upgrade firmware are more, often occur after tested for a long time after, machine is still in continuous loading system with restart, and seriously cause manpower and time waste, testing efficiency is low.
Summary of the invention
In order to solve this problem, proposing herein and a kind ofly upgrade for the quick firmware of computing machine large scale test and guide the method entering operating system.Utilize UEFI firmware to upgrade and do not need load operation system, speed is fast, the booting operating system file calling UEFI pattern can start the operating system, firmware renewal rewards theory when realizing computing machine large-scale production test is simple, speed is fast, start the operating system convenient and swift, save the test duration, firmware is upgraded and operating system end testing process simplification high-speeding.
The present invention to expend time in length in conjunction with operating system update firmware during current computer large scale test, and DOS not easily directly guides the situations such as os starting such as Linux, and designed and developed following testing process, implementation method is as follows:
1, mainstream computer is mostly integrated with build-inuefishell now, determines that machine first startup item is bootfrombuild-inshell.
2, firmware file and instrument are placed in USB flash disk or hard disk.
3, machine enters the file system depositing firmware file and instrument after entering UEFIshell, automatically runs and upgrades firmware command.
4, after firmware has upgraded, as firmware does not need to restart activation, program Automatically invoked booting operating system file, starts the operating system and carries out diagnostic test.
5, as firmware upgrade after need to restart activation, machine is restarted and is automatically entered uefishell, program direct call operation System guides file, guides os starting to carry out diagnostic test.
In step 3, can edit startup.nsh, scan available file system, machine enters the file system depositing firmware file and instrument after entering UEFIshell, runs and upgrades firmware command
In step 4, after firmware has upgraded, restart activation if do not needed, startup.nsh call operation System guides file.
Firmware renewal is carried out under the build-inuefishell environment that system bios is integrated, do not need to restart as this firmware upgrades, the boot files of direct calling system can start Linux or Windows system, as system needs to restart, then restart the rear boot files automatically entering uefishell Automatically invoked system again and start Linux or Windows system.
More the new stage, without loading system, saves the test duration to firmware, particularly upgrading firmware and be more and when needing to restart, saving the system loads time frequently greatly, improves firmware and upgrades efficiency and testing efficiency.
Avoid the requirement of firmware renewal to operating system, simple and quick.
Utilize UEFI can identify Linux/Windows system efi boot partition, direct calling system boot files can start the operating system, fast convenient and simple.
Accompanying drawing explanation
Fig. 1 is test of the present invention and uses procedure Procedure figure.
Embodiment
More detailed elaboration is carried out to content of the present invention below:
Testing process of the present invention, performing step is as follows:
A) check BIOSsetup boot sequence, guarantee that system starts build-inefishell automatically without other starting outfits.
B) firmware file and instrument are placed in USB flash disk or hard disk.
C) edit startup.nsh, scan available file system, guide and enter the file system depositing firmware file and instrument, run and upgrade firmware command (as erasing, upgrading etc.).
D) after firmware has upgraded, activation is restarted if do not needed, startup.nsh call operation System guides file ((SuSE) Linux OS be efi boot bootx64.efi, Windows operating system be EFI Microsoft Boot bootmgfw.efi), start the operating system and carry out diagnostic test.
E) as firmware upgrade after need to restart activation, machine is restarted and after automatically entering uefishell directly call operation System startup files guide os starting, the equal Script controlling of this process completes, automatically without the need to manual operation.
Under UEFIshell, carry out firmware renewal during large scale test, without the need to load operation system, decrease update time; Need not consider firmware more new tool to the requirement of operating system, simplify renewal process; Direct call operation System guides file guidance system startup can carry out diagnostic test, without the need to restarting, achieving the slitless connection with Windows/Linux system, optimizing firmware and upgrading and diagnostic test flow process.
Claims (3)
1. quick firmware upgrades and guides the method entering operating system, it is characterized in that, comprises the steps:
1) determine that machine first startup item is bootfrombuild-inshell;
2) firmware file and instrument are placed in USB flash disk or hard disk;
3) machine enters the file system depositing firmware file and instrument after entering UEFIshell, automatically runs and upgrades firmware command;
4) after firmware has upgraded, as firmware does not need to restart activation, program Automatically invoked booting operating system file, starts the operating system and carries out diagnostic test;
5) as firmware upgrade after need to restart activation, machine is restarted and is automatically entered uefishell, program direct call operation System guides file, guides os starting to carry out diagnostic test.
