Specific embodiment
In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present invention, with reference to the accompanying drawings and detailed description The present invention is described in further detail.Obviously, described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than Whole embodiments.Based on the embodiments of the present invention, those of ordinary skill in the art are not making creative work premise Under every other embodiment obtained, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
A kind of flow chart such as Fig. 1 institute of specific embodiment of storage system BIOS restoration methods provided by the present invention Show, this method is applied to PCH chip, and the PCH chip is connect by default communication line with extended chip, and the method is specific Include:
Step S101: reception powers on instruction, accesses BIOS ROM flash memory;
Step S102: in BIOS ROM file exception, the pre-stored BIOS core that the extended chip is sent is received Piece content;
Extended chip can be specially the chip of integrated SES system.It has been stored in advance in the extended chip in BIOS chip Hold, in this way when determining BIOS ROM file exception, pre-stored BIOS chip can be got from extended chip immediately Content.
It, can be by carrying out power-on self-test, when the SES system in the extended chip exists as a kind of specific embodiment When not receiving the signal of power-on self-test completion in preset time, determine that BIOS ROM file is abnormal;Otherwise, it is determined that BIOS ROM File is normal.After the completion of booting powers on, PCH chip accesses BIOS ROM, and power-on self-test is carried out when BIOS ROM file is normal, The signal that system normally starts is generated after the completion of powering on;When BIOS ROM file exception, power-on self-test is unable to complete, therefore, If the time for waiting power-on self-test to complete signal more than preset threshold, that is, waits power-on self-test to complete under signal timeout case, can To determine that BIOS ROM file is abnormal.
Optionally, receiving the pre-stored BIOS chip content that extended chip is sent includes: to receive extended chip to pass through The pre-stored BIOS chip content that I2C route is sent.
Step S103: the BIOS chip content is written to BIOS ROM, write-in re-starts after completing to be powered on just Beginningization.
Specifically, the extended chip issues the instruction for re-starting power-up initializing after write-in is completed, and re-starts Power-up initializing.
On the basis of the above embodiments, storage system BIOS restoration methods provided herein are in BIOS ROM file When normal further include: carry out power-on self-test, after the completion of power-on self-test, Xiang Suoshu extended chip sends self-test and completes signal, system Normal starting.
Storage system BIOS restoration methods provided by the present invention, are applied to PCH chip, and PCH chip passes through default communication Route is connect with extended chip.The reception of PCH chip powers on instruction, accesses BIOS ROM flash memory;In BIOS ROM file exception, Receive the pre-stored BIOS chip content that extended chip is sent;BIOS chip content is written to BIOS ROM, has been written At re-starting power-up initializing later.The application can restore BIOS chip when BIOS chip file occurs abnormal automatically Content reduces board due to the generation of the extremely caused phenomenon that is not switched on of BIOS chip file, increases the reliable of storage system Property and stability.
Optionally, the extended chip is the chip of integrated SES system.It can be certainly when BIOS chip file occurs abnormal It is dynamic to restore BIOS chip content automatically using shelf management SES system.Storage system is based on massive store hard disk design Management system can all use SES agreement do cabinet management system, such as 8054 chips of PMC in system, in addition to conduct substantially Outside SAS Expander, the SES system being internally integrated also serves as the responsibility of shelf management.Storage system provided herein Structural schematic diagram is as shown in Fig. 2, BIOS rom chip hangs over PCH chip in the following, PCH chip and integrated SES system by spi bus There is I2C connection all the way between the extended chip of system.In conjunction with Fig. 3 flow diagram, below to storage system provided herein Another specific embodiment of BIOS restoration methods is further elaborated on.
In the present embodiment, one piece of independent memory space storage BIOS chip will be marked in the extended chip of integrated SES system Content, after the completion of booting powers on, PCH chip accesses BIOS ROM flash memory, the loading firmware (Load when BIOS ROM file is normal Firmware power-on self-test) is carried out, signal the extended chip for telling integrated SES system after the completion of power-on self-test, and system is normal Starting;When BIOS ROM file exception, power-on self-test is unable to complete, and the extended chip for integrating SES system waits power-on self-test Signal time-out is completed, BIOS chip content is passed to PCH chip, PCH chip by I2C by the extended chip of integrated SES system BIOS ROM is written into BIOS chip content, SES system, which gives an order, after write-in is completed re-powers initialization.
In addition, present invention also provides a kind of storage systems, as shown in figure 4, the storage system include: PCH chip 1, BIOS ROM flash memory 2 and extended chip 3;The PCH chip 1 is connect by default communication line with the extended chip 3;
The PCH chip 1 powers on instruction for receiving, and accesses the BIOS ROM flash memory;It is abnormal in BIOS ROM file When, receive the pre-stored BIOS chip content that the extended chip 3 is sent;The BIOS chip content is written to BIOS ROM, write-in re-start power-up initializing after completing.Optionally, pass through I2C between PCH chip 1 and the extended chip 3 Route is attached.
As a kind of specific embodiment, extended chip 3 described in the present embodiment can be the chip of integrated SES system.
Further, the PCH chip 1 can be connected by spi bus with the BIOS ROM flash memory 2.
The storage system of the present embodiment is corresponding with mentioned-above storage system BIOS restoration methods, so, it is specific Embodiment is referred to the description of corresponding various pieces embodiment, and details are not described herein.
In the application, PCH chip is connect by default communication line with extended chip, and the reception of PCH chip powers on instruction, is visited Ask BIOS ROM flash memory;It is abnormal in BIOS ROM file, then receive the pre-stored BIOS chip content of extended chip transmission; BIOS chip content is written to BIOS ROM, write-in re-starts power-up initializing after completing.The application is in BIOS chip When file occurs abnormal, BIOS chip content can be restored automatically, reduce board since BIOS chip file is extremely caused The generation for the phenomenon that is not switched on increases the reliability and stability of storage system.
