Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without any creative work belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
The core of the invention is to provide a data recorder based on a PCIE interface, which is used for improving the data transmission speed and reducing the CPU resource consumption of a management control module.
In order that those skilled in the art will better understand the disclosure, the invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
Fig. 1 is a structural diagram of a data recorder based on a PCIE interface according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the data recorder based on the PCIE interface includes a management control module 10 for controlling interaction between modules, a data transceiver module 11 for transceiving data, an exchange expansion module 12 for providing an interaction interface, and a solid state disk 13 having a PCIE interface. The switching expansion module 10 is connected to the management control module 10, the data transceiver module 11 and the solid state disk 13 through a PCIE bus, and when the management control module 10 receives data from the data transceiver module 11, the data transceiver module 11 is controlled to directly transmit the data to the solid state disk 13.
In a specific implementation, the management control module 10 is connected to the switching expansion module 12 through a PCIE bus, and mainly functions to respond to an external control instruction, manage an internal storage space and a stored file, control data movement among modules, and control read/write operations of the solid state disk 13. In a preferred embodiment, the management control module 10 comprises a chip using an ARM architecture. It is understood that the management control module 10 may also be an SOC or an SOPC based on a PowerPC or an X86 architecture, may run an operating system, or may be in a bare computer form, and is not described in detail in this embodiment.
The operation of the management control module 10 is roughly as follows:
1) the communication with the solid state disk 13 is realized through the exchange expansion module 12, and the solid state disk 13 is controlled and data is transmitted;
2) the management control module 10 communicates with the data transceiver module through the switching extension module 12, controls the data transceiver module, and transmits data.
3) The management control module 10 has an interface for communicating with an external host, and can receive data or control commands, process and execute the control commands, and return results.
The data transceiver module 11 is usually a high-bandwidth data transceiver module, and is connected to the switching expansion module 12 through a PCIE bus, and its main functions include two, that is, external data (such as optical fiber, network data, and the like) is received and transmitted, and under the control of the CPU of the management control module 10, the data is moved into or out of the solid state disk 13; secondly, small storage requests are cached, and received data are unpacked, so that the purpose of reducing the CPU workload of the management control module 10 is achieved. As a preferred embodiment, the data transceiver module 11 comprises an FPGA chip with a serial transceiver. It will be appreciated that the use of an FPGA chip is only one preferred approach and is not intended to represent only that approach.
The switching expansion module 12 is connected to the management control module 10, the solid state disk 13 and the data transceiver module 11 through a PCIE bus. The main function of the system is to complete interaction among the interfaces, and ensure that high-bandwidth interconnection can be realized between the data transceiver module 11 and the solid state disk 13, and between the management control module 10 and the solid state disk 13. In a preferred embodiment, the Switch expansion module 12 includes a Switch chip and a plurality of PCIE buses, and at least one PCIE bus is reserved. The operating parameters of the Switch chip are configured by the management control module 10. The reserved PCIE bus may access a new wide data transceiver module, a new solid state disk 13, or communicate with a next data recorder.
The solid state disk 13 is connected to the switching expansion module 12 through a PCIE bus. The main function of the solid state disk is to store system parameters and user data, and under the control of the CPU of the management control module 10, the DMA controller of the solid state disk 13 can implement data migration with the data transceiver module 11 or the management control module 10. In a preferred embodiment, the PCIE protocol adopted by the solid state disk 13 is Gen3x4, and the capacity is not less than 1.2T.
Since the solid state disk 13 has a PCIE interface, in a specific implementation, the solid state disk 13 may adopt an NVMe protocol or an ACHI protocol. The solid state disk 13 based on the NVMe protocol further increases the speed and storage density of the storage carrier, so that a larger speed and a higher capacity can be realized in a limited space. The speed of a single path of PCIE 3.0 is 1GB/s, if an X8 link is used, the speed reaches 8GB/s, and is higher than that of a solid state disk of an SATA interface by one order of magnitude. The speed of a single solid state disk 13 based on the PCIE interface can reach 3GB/s, and the capacity can reach 8TB or even larger, so that the high-speed large-capacity data recorder can meet the requirement of large data development.
In order to make the solution more clear to those skilled in the art, the following description will be given of the working process between the modules as a whole:
after being powered on, the management control module 10 initializes and configures the Switch chip, and then detects a device connected to the Switch chip and performs an initialization operation on the device.
After the initialization is completed and normal operation is completed, when the management control module 10 receives valid data sent by the host, the management control module 10 may control the DMA controller of the solid state disk 13 or the DMA controller inside itself to directly transmit the data to the solid state disk 13 for storage.
When receiving valid data sent by the host, the data transceiver module 11 communicates with the management control module 10, and the management control module 10 controls the DMA controller of the solid state disk 13 to transmit the data to the solid state disk 13 for storage.
When the management control module 10 wants to send valid data to the host, the DMA controller of the solid state disk 13 or the DMA controller inside the management control module will be controlled to transmit the data to the management control module 10, and then the data is sent by the management control module 10.
When the data transceiver module 11 is to send valid data to the host, the management control module 1 controls the DMA controller of the solid state disk 13 to transmit the stored data to the data transceiver module 11, and then the data is sent by the data transceiver module 11.
In the data recorder based on the PCIE interface provided in this embodiment, data is stored in the solid state disk with the PCIE interface, and in this interface type, the solid state disk may use an NVMe protocol or an ACHI protocol, so that the speed and the density of the storage carrier are obviously improved. In addition, when the front end has data, the management control module does not need to temporarily store the data, but controls the data receiving and sending module to directly transmit the data to the solid state disk, so that the data moving is reduced, and the waste of CPU resources in the management control module can be effectively reduced.

As shown in fig. 2, on the basis of the above embodiment, as a preferred implementation, the management control module 10 further includes a first DDR chip 21 externally connected to the chip 20 of the ARM architecture. The first DDR chip 21 may be configured to buffer data and control program operations.
On the basis of the above embodiment, as a preferred implementation, the data transceiver module 11 further includes a second DDR chip 23 externally connected to the FPGA chip 22 and used as a cache.
On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, as a preferred implementation, the exchange extension module 12, the management control module 10, and the data transceiver module 11 are integrated into a whole.
