The intelligent electronic device can be operated according to a program, and can automatically process mass data at a high speed.

MacOSX is a suite of operating systems running on the apple Macintosh family of computers. The Mac system is a graphical operating system based on the Unix kernel, developed by apple inc. In recent years, apple computers have been increasing in market share due to their excellent performance, excellent interface and user experience, and the usage of MacOSX has been rising. The steps from starting up of the Mac system to establishing of the user environment are as follows:

(1) activating mac firmware, initializing hardware, and loading a BootX bootstrap;

(2) boot guiding;

(3) loading a kernel and a kernel extension (kext);

(4) the kernel starts a launchd process;

(5) starting Daemon by the launch process according to the system configuration;

(6) establishing and logging in a user environment;

(7) and the launch process starts the Agent according to the user environment configuration.

In the process of starting up, the time spent on the user is still a little longer, in the prior art, in order to reduce the time spent on starting up, some processes can be set, namely, the option of starting up and logging in is removed from the system setting or the program setting. However, the coverage of the method to the startup item is very low, and the startup item can only be cancelled according to the user process; this approach does not enable the disabling and offloading of some background processes that are useless to the user, time consuming and resource consuming.

Detailed Description

In order to make the technical solutions of the present invention better understood, 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, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

The 21 st century is a society with rapid development of information, the development speed of informatization is faster and faster, the demand of people on networks is larger and larger, the daily life, work and study of people are affected by the networks to generate various changes, and the development of the networks causes various information to break through the regional limitation and be widely spread.

MacOSX is a suite of operating systems running on the apple Macintosh family of computers. The Mac system is a graphical operating system based on the Unix kernel, developed by apple inc. In recent years, apple computers have been increasing in market share due to their excellent performance, excellent interface and user experience, and the usage of MacOSX has been rising.

Some terms that may appear in the embodiments of the present invention are first briefly described as follows:

launch: a general process manager under a Mac system is a process which is resident in a background.

Daemon: the task executed in the Mac system background is not directly controlled by the user, provides functional service for front-end application, and coordinates access to resources.

Agent: the task executed in the Mac system user environment can access user resources, and similar to the Daemon function, the task provides functional service for the front end and coordinates access to the resources.

In the prior art, if a user selects an option of "open at login" for setting some application programs of the Mac computer in the process of using the Mac computer, as shown in fig. 1, the user may remove the option, and the application program will not run in the next startup process of the Mac computer, which may be used to reduce the startup time of the Mac computer. Or, the option of "open at login" is selected for the setting of some application programs, and the user may remove the login item in the system setting, that is, remove the hook before the project, as shown in fig. 2, if the itunes helper application program, the RTX application program, the Foxmail application program, and the enterprise cloud disk application program are not selected, the Mac computer will not start these application programs in the process of starting up, and therefore, the start-up time of the Mac computer can be reduced.

The prior art is simple to operate, and Mac users are familiar with the prior art. However, the technology has very low coverage on the startup item, and only an application program with the startup item is cancelled. The method is usually suitable for an application program which is set to be opened when a user logs in, the user can remove the option of opening when logging in without starting the application program, and a system process which is useless for the user, consumes time and resources or a background process developed by a third party can not be cancelled, so that the starting time of the Mac computer is still to be reduced.

The invention mainly aims to optimize the starting time of the Mac system and accelerate the starting speed. The start-up of the Mac system to the establishment of the user environment is divided into a series of steps, and as shown below, the optimization of any one of these steps can achieve the purpose of optimizing the system start-up time. The invention starts from the launch process in the starting step, and reduces the time for the launch process to start the Daemon and the Agent by unloading the Daemon process and the Agent process which are useless for the user, thereby reducing the starting time of the Mac system.

The steps from starting up of the Mac system to establishing of the user environment are as follows:

(2) boot guiding;

(3) loading a kernel and a kernel extension (kext);

(4) the kernel starts a launchd process;

(6) establishing and logging in a user environment;

Optimized in the technical scheme of the invention is that Daemon is started according to system configuration in the launch process in the step (5) and Agent is started according to user environment configuration in the launch process in the step (7).

Launch is a system level process that manages Daemon and agents on a Mac system. Launchd cannot be directly accessed and called and needs to be operated by launchctl command. The invention uses the launchctl command to unload the background process which is not needed on the specific computer according to the requirement, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the starting speed.

The technical solution of the present invention is further described below by way of an embodiment, and as shown in fig. 3, an embodiment of the method for power-on optimization in an embodiment of the present invention is schematically illustrated, which includes:

301. acquiring a process set of background processes to be started when the computer is started;

the execution subject in the embodiment of the present invention may be a terminal, and the terminal may include a computer (desktop, notebook) on which a MacOSX operating system is installed. Taking a notebook as an example to explain, the notebook is already started up and is in a working state, if a user wants to uninstall some background processes, an inquiry operation is performed on the notebook first, and the notebook can obtain a process set of the background processes to be started up during this startup. It should be understood that, in the process set to be started up at this time of startup, there are 5 directories where the process set managed by launch is located in general, as shown in table 1 below:

TABLE 1

302. Acquiring a stop instruction of a target process;

in the embodiment of the present invention, if a target process is to be uninstalled, the target process is first stopped, that is, a stop instruction for the target process in the process set is first obtained. As mentioned above, Launchd is a system-level process that cannot be directly accessed and invoked and needs to be operated through launchctl commands. Therefore, the stop instruction herein may be referred to as a launchctl stop instruction for short.

For example, in practical applications, the launchctl command has the following 4 types, as shown in table 2 below:

launchctl load com.katiewang.mydaemond.plist	loading
		launchctl unload com.katiewang.mydaemond.plist	Unloading
launchctl start com.katiewang.mydaemond.plist	Starting up
		launchctl stop com.katiewang.mydaemond.plist	Stop

TABLE 2

Launch not com.katiewang.mydaemond. plist, as in the table, representing the use of the launch command to unload a background process named mydaemond;

launchctl stop com. katiewang. mydaemond. plist, representing the use of the launchctl command to stop a background process named mydaemond;

launchctl load com, katiewang, mydaemond, plist, represents the use of the launchctl command to load a background process named mydaemond;

launchctl start com. katiewang. mydaemond. plist, represents the use of the launchctl command to start a background process named mydaemond.

It should be noted that com, katiewang, mydaemond, plist represents a configuration file of the background process under the launched directory, and the configuration file under the launched directory is as shown in table 1 above, and is not described herein again.

303. Executing a stop instruction, and stopping the target process;

in the embodiment of the invention, after the notebook computer obtains the stop instruction of the target process in the process set, the operating system in the notebook computer executes the stop instruction to stop the target process. It should be understood that stopping the target process is not a necessary step and the stop instruction may stop the background process directly on the running Mac computer, i.e. steps 302 and 303 are optional steps.

304. Acquiring an unloading instruction of a target process in a process set;

in the embodiment of the invention, a computer acquires an unloading instruction of a target process in a process set; it should be understood that in practice, the following are several possible implementations:

(1) after determining the process set of the processes to be started when starting up next time, the method further comprises: displaying a process set of processes to be started when starting up the next time; obtaining an uninstall instruction for a target process in a process set may include: and receiving an uninstalling instruction of a user for a selected process in the process set of the process to be started through the display interface.

(2) Acquiring an uninstalling instruction of a target process in a process set, comprising the following steps: determining the process allowed to be unloaded according to the importance degree of each process in the process set of the process to be started; an offload instruction is generated for the process that is allowed to be offloaded.

It should be noted that, in the implementation manner (1), the user selects the target process to be uninstalled according to the own requirement, and the computer may receive an uninstalling instruction generated by the operation of the user through the display interface. The method comprises the steps that a user starts a terminal app application program in a Mac system, enters and views a directory of a background process configuration file, determines a background process set needing to be unloaded according to the use habit of the user, executes unloading operation on a target process to be unloaded, generates an unloading instruction by a notebook computer and executes the unloading instruction; in the implementation manner of (2), the client is similar to a computer housekeeper, and the priority of each process in the process set of the processes to be started can be determined after extensive research by a software vendor, and the process with the priority lower than the preset threshold can be determined as the process allowed to be uninstalled, and then an uninstall instruction is generated for the process allowed to be uninstalled. The method is characterized in that a software provider determines a background process set suitable for being unloaded by a user according to research of the background process and using habits of the user, an unloading instruction is packaged and executed, and the method is a mode of replacing manual command input by the user through software operation.

The above-mentioned implementation scheme is to automatically obtain and execute the uninstalling instruction, and the implementation scheme is to perform operation according to the user's own requirements to generate and execute the uninstalling instruction, which provides feasibility for the embodiment of the present invention.

305. And according to the unloading instruction, unloading the target process to obtain an updated process set, wherein the process in the updated process set is started when the system is started next time.

In the embodiment of the invention, after the notebook computer obtains the uninstalling instruction of the target process in the process set, the target process is uninstalled according to the uninstalling instruction to obtain the updated process set, and the process in the updated process set is started when the notebook computer is started next time. It should be understood that in the practical application of the unload instruction, it may be simply called launchctl unload instruction.

In an alternative implementation, executing the offload instruction to offload the target process includes: when the configuration file of the target process is located in the background process under the system directory, increasing the authority to the uninstalling instruction by modifying the uninstalling instruction; and executing the uninstalling instruction after the authority is added, and uninstalling the target process.

Illustratively, on the basis of the above table 1, the directory/Library/LaunchDaemons/, and the configuration file of the system daemon provided by the administrator can be observed, as shown in fig. 4 (a). Using the launchctl command described above, a process that does not need to be started with the system, for example, com. launch not load com, google.

Further, when the operating system directory (non-user directory, directory with "/" as prefix in the table provided in the embodiment of the present invention) is operated, a sudo command is required to be added before the command to raise the authority. The directory with the-' prefix is used as the user directory. For example: com. applet. metadata. mds. plist is a system process that is to be unloaded, the normal launchctl unload instruction is: launchctl unload com.app.metadata.mds.plist, because the system level directory is operated, the unload instruction needs to be modified, sudo command is added to promote the authority, and the modified unload instruction is as follows: andd launchctl unloadcom.applet.metadata.mds.plist, and then unloading according to the sudo launchctl unloadcom.applet.metadata.mds.plist.

Some common services that do not require random startup are described below, such as software for a user or boot assistant, a computer administrator, etc., that can stop or uninstall the following services as appropriate, as shown in table 3:

TABLE 3

In the embodiment of the invention, a computer determines a process set of processes to be started when the computer is started next time; acquiring an unloading instruction of a target process in a process set; and according to the unloading instruction, unloading the target process to obtain an updated process set, wherein the process in the updated process set is started when the system is started next time. In the running process of the computer, some background target processes can be unloaded, so that in the next starting process of the computer, the running of some target processes is reduced, and the starting time is faster than before, thereby improving the starting speed and reducing the starting time.

In practical application, the technical scheme of the invention can optimize the starting time of the Mac system, is particularly obvious for household Mac computers with older models and focused functions, and enhances the use experience. The following description is given by taking a practical application scenario as an example, so as to facilitate understanding of the technical solution of the present invention.

Plum is a clerk working in a paperwork, and his apple computer has been used for two years, and for economic reasons, it has not been possible to replace it with a new one. However, the work is still done normally, sometimes the computer compares the cards, the starting speed is extremely slow, and the starting speed exceeds one minute each time, although the plumes also cancel some starting processes in the system setting, some processes are useless, mainly some processes under the system catalog, and cannot be cancelled in the system setting.

The existing computer of the littlefruit is in a starting state, the littlefruit uses the technical scheme of the invention, firstly, a directory where a background process configuration file is located in the table 1 or the table 3 is opened, the littlefruit determines which processes are to be unloaded according to the displayed background processes, and the littlefruit does not need the automatic updating function of a product provided by google corporation, the unloading can be realized through the scheme of the invention, the operation method of the littlefruit is to input a command in a terminal app application, and the input unloading command is as follows: launchctl unloaded com. google. keystone. agent. plist. As shown in fig. 4(b), a schematic diagram of the input of the offload command to the duet is shown, and the offload command input to the duet is automatically activated next time the boot is started.

The more processes the plumes are unloaded, the faster the boot-up speed is, and the corresponding boot-up time is reduced. If some processes are unloaded carelessly, a loading instruction can be input into the terminal, and the loading instruction is automatically effective when the terminal is started next time. That is, in practical applications, the offloaded background process can be resumed at any time.

The method of the scheme has important implementation significance for certain software for managing the computer, such as boot assistant software, computer housekeeper software and the like. For example, a computer manager can integrate the scheme, a program is used for automatically running a launchctl command, and the user only needs to select which items need to be unloaded and can complete optimization by clicking a mouse.

The method for power-on optimization in the embodiment of the present invention is described above, and the terminal provided in the embodiment of the present invention is specifically described below.

The terminal can be integrated with the terminal and connected with the terminal through a wired communication interface or a wireless communication interface.

Fig. 9 is a block diagram illustrating a partial structure related to a terminal provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 9, the terminal includes: radio Frequency (RF) circuit 910, memory 920, input unit 930, display unit 940, sensor 950, audio circuit 960, wireless fidelity (WiFi) module 970, processor 980, and power supply 990. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the terminal structure shown in fig. 9 does not constitute a limitation of the terminal, and may include more or fewer components than those shown, or some components may be combined, or a different arrangement of components.

The following describes each constituent element of the terminal in detail with reference to fig. 9:

the RF circuit 910 may be used for receiving and transmitting signals during information transmission and reception or during a call, and in particular, for receiving downlink information of a base station and then processing the received downlink information to the processor 980; in addition, the data for designing uplink is transmitted to the base station. In general, the RF circuit 910 includes, but is not limited to, an antenna, at least one Amplifier, a transceiver, a coupler, a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), a duplexer, and the like. In addition, the RF circuit 910 may also communicate with networks and other devices via wireless communication. The wireless communication may use any communication standard or protocol, including but not limited to Global System for Mobile communication (GSM), General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), Long Term Evolution (LTE), email, Short Messaging Service (SMS), and the like.

The memory 920 may be used to store software programs and modules, and the processor 980 performs various functional applications of the terminal and data processing by operating the software programs and modules stored in the memory 920. The memory 920 may mainly include a program storage area and a data storage area, wherein the program storage area may store an operating system, an application program required by at least one function (such as a sound playing function, an image playing function, etc.), and the like; the storage data area may store data (such as audio data, a phonebook, etc.) created according to the use of the terminal, etc. Further, the memory 920 may include high speed random access memory, and may also include non-volatile memory, such as at least one magnetic disk storage device, flash memory device, or other volatile solid state storage device.

The input unit 930 may be used to receive input numeric or character information and generate key signal inputs related to user settings and function control of the terminal. Specifically, the input unit 930 may include a touch panel 931 and other input devices 932. The touch panel 931, also referred to as a touch screen, may collect a touch operation performed by a user on or near the touch panel 931 (e.g., a user's operation on or near the touch panel 931 using a finger, a stylus, or any other suitable object or accessory), and drive a corresponding connection device according to a preset program. Alternatively, the touch panel 931 may include two parts, a touch detection device and a touch controller. The touch detection device detects the touch direction of a user, detects a signal brought by touch operation and transmits the signal to the touch controller; the touch controller receives touch information from the touch sensing device, converts the touch information into touch point coordinates, sends the touch point coordinates to the processor 980, and can receive and execute commands sent by the processor 980. In addition, the touch panel 931 may be implemented by various types, such as a resistive type, a capacitive type, an infrared ray, and a surface acoustic wave. The input unit 930 may include other input devices 932 in addition to the touch panel 931. In particular, other input devices 932 may include, but are not limited to, one or more of a physical keyboard, function keys (e.g., volume control keys, switch keys, etc.), a trackball, a mouse, a joystick, and the like.

Specifically, the light sensor may include an ambient light sensor that may adjust the brightness of the display panel 941 according to the brightness of ambient light, and a proximity sensor that may turn off the display panel 941 and/or a backlight when the terminal is moved to the ear. As one of the motion sensors, the accelerometer sensor may detect the magnitude of acceleration in each direction (generally, three axes), detect the magnitude and direction of gravity when stationary, and may be used for applications (such as horizontal and vertical screen switching, related interactive applications, magnetometer attitude calibration), vibration recognition related functions (such as pedometer and tapping) and the like for recognizing the attitude of the terminal, and the terminal may be further configured with other sensors such as a gyroscope, a barometer, a hygrometer, a thermometer, and an infrared sensor, which are not described herein again.

The audio circuitry 960, speaker 961, microphone 962 may provide an audio interface between the user and the terminal. The audio circuit 960 may transmit the electrical signal converted from the received audio data to the speaker 961, and convert the electrical signal into a sound signal for output by the speaker 961; on the other hand, the microphone 962 converts the collected sound signal into an electric signal, converts the electric signal into audio data after being received by the audio circuit 960, and outputs the audio data to the processor 980 for processing, and then transmits the audio data to another terminal via the RF circuit 910, or outputs the audio data to the memory 920 for further processing.

WiFi belongs to a short-distance wireless transmission technology, and the terminal can help a user to send and receive e-mails, browse webpages, access streaming media and the like through the WiFi module 970, which provides wireless broadband internet access for the user. Although fig. 9 shows the WiFi module 970, it is understood that it does not belong to the essential constitution of the terminal, and may be omitted entirely as needed within the scope not changing the essence of the invention.

The processor 980 is a control center of the terminal, connects various parts of the entire terminal using various interfaces and lines, and performs various functions of the terminal and processes data by running or executing software programs and/or modules stored in the memory 920 and calling data stored in the memory 920, thereby integrally monitoring the terminal. Alternatively, processor 980 may include one or more processing units; preferably, the processor 980 may integrate an application processor, which primarily handles operating systems, user interfaces, applications, etc., and a modem processor, which primarily handles wireless communications.
