In the related art, the frequency modulation method mainly includes two methods: the first method is to carry out unified frequency modulation from a system level, and tasks running on a CPU are accelerated (when frequency is increased) or decelerated (when frequency is decreased), obviously, the method has poor pertinence, so that part of tasks which do not need frequency modulation can be also subjected to frequency modulation, and resource waste is caused; the second method is to perform frequency modulation from a task level, and only perform frequency modulation on a task needing frequency modulation, but the related technology has the problem of mismatching between the frequency modulation time and the task operation, so that the task cannot be effectively optimized in frequency modulation.
Therefore, a new frequency modulation method is needed to solve the above technical problems.

Detailed Description
Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example embodiments may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The described features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments. In the following description, numerous specific details are provided to give a thorough understanding of embodiments of the disclosure. One skilled in the relevant art will recognize, however, that the subject matter of the present disclosure can be practiced without one or more of the specific details, or with other methods, components, devices, steps, and the like. In other instances, well-known technical solutions have not been shown or described in detail to avoid obscuring aspects of the present disclosure.
Furthermore, the drawings are merely schematic illustrations of the present disclosure and are not necessarily drawn to scale. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar parts, and thus their repetitive description will be omitted. Some of the block diagrams shown in the figures are functional entities and do not necessarily correspond to physically or logically separate entities. These functional entities may be implemented in the form of software, or in one or more hardware modules or integrated circuits, or in different networks and/or processor devices and/or microcontroller devices.
In the related art, taking schedule (process Scheduling) native mechanism in EAS (Energy Aware Scheduling, Energy Scheduling policy) as an example, as shown in fig. 1, when a game is running, a game screen needs to be rendered through a rendering thread (Render), and in order to accelerate a rendering process and reduce the pause of the screen, frequency modulation (mainly frequency boosting to improve CPU/GPU performance) needs to be performed. However, in the Schetune native mechanism, whether frequency modulation is performed or not is determined according to the system load condition, and after the rendering thread runs for a period of time, if the system performance cannot meet the requirements of the thread, the system load parameters are reflected, and then frequency modulation is performed. The response time of the process is long, and a more obvious lag problem generally exists, and the actual frequency raising interval in fig. 1 is always later than the interval in which the rendering thread runs, so that the actual acceleration effect of the rendering thread is influenced.
In view of one or more of the above problems, exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure first provide a frequency modulation method, which may be applied to various electronic devices such as a computer, a smart phone, a tablet computer, and the like. Fig. 2 shows a flow of the method, which may include the following steps S210 to S240:
and step S210, responding to the start of the target task, and detecting the state of the delayed frequency modulation mode.
The task Group to be operated is a task Group formed by a plurality of tasks to be operated, for example, in an Android system, the task Group to be operated may be a Boost Group; the target task may be any task in the group of tasks to be run (but typically not the last task in the group of tasks). The delay frequency modulation mode is a frequency modulation mode added in the present exemplary embodiment, and unlike the native frequency modulation mode, fast real-time frequency modulation can be realized. The system may be provided with a switch for turning On or Off the delay frequency modulation mode, or a state variable of the delay frequency modulation mode, for example, a delayed Boost variable is set, and when the delayed Boost value is On, it indicates that the delay frequency modulation mode is turned On, and when the delayed Boost value is Off, it indicates that the delay frequency modulation mode is turned Off.
Several embodiments are provided below as to how to control the state of the delayed chirp mode, but the following should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present disclosure:
(1) the status of the delay modulation mode can be manually controlled, for example, an option related to the delay modulation mode is added in the system setting, so that the user can customize the delay modulation mode to be switched on or switched off.
(2) The status of the delayed fm mode may be associated with a specific program, for example, when the system runs a program such as a large game or graphics processing software that requires high processing performance, the delayed fm mode may be automatically turned on, and when the program is turned off, the delayed fm mode may be automatically turned off. Based on this, in one embodiment, as shown with reference to fig. 3, the delayed chirp mode may be turned on through the following steps S310 and S320:
step S310, when generating a task group to be operated, acquiring a program to which tasks in the task group to be operated belong;
step S320, if the program to which the task in the task group to be executed belongs includes a preset program, the delay frequency modulation mode is started.
The preset program is a predetermined program that requires a delayed fm mode, such as the above-mentioned large game or graphics processing software. Therefore, when each task group to be operated is generated, if the tasks comprise the tasks under the preset program, the delay frequency modulation mode can be started if the preset program is currently operated or is about to be operated. Further, if the program to which the task in the task group to be executed belongs includes a preset program, the task group to be executed may be marked as a fast frequency modulation task group, and when all the fast frequency modulation task groups in the system are finished to run, that is, when the task group currently running in the system does not include a fast frequency modulation task group, the delayed frequency modulation mode may be closed. The switch of the delay frequency modulation mode is controlled by the task group, so that the pertinence can be improved.
Furthermore, the state of the delay frequency modulation mode may be associated with a specific event, for example, when an event such as Activity switching or touch screen clicking occurs, the delay frequency modulation mode may be automatically activated.
(3) The state of the delay frequency modulation mode can also be controlled according to the load condition of the system, for example, the delay frequency modulation mode is turned on when the system load is higher or the number of running processes or threads is larger, or the delay frequency modulation mode is turned off when the device temperature is higher.
It should be noted that any combination of the above manners may be adopted to control the on or off of the delay modulation mode.
In step S220, when the delay modulation mode is in the off state, the native scheduler is invoked to perform frequency modulation.
The native scheduler may perform frequency modulation through a native mechanism. Specifically, the scheduler may obtain a load parameter of the task group to be operated, perform uniform scheduling on the system resource according to the load parameter, determine a frequency modulation parameter, and perform frequency modulation.
In an optional implementation manner, step S220 may specifically include: and calling a native scheduler to update the global load parameter according to the load parameter of the task group to be operated, and carrying out frequency modulation according to the global load parameter. For example, the scheduler may obtain a Boost parameter of a task group to be run, update the global load parameter Utility by integrating the conditions of other tasks, and calculate the required CPU/GPU frequency according to the Utility, thereby performing frequency modulation. Therefore, the process needs certain processing and response time, and frequency modulation cannot be immediately realized.
In step S230, when the delay modulation mode is in the on state, the state of the target task is detected after a preset delay time.
The preset delay time is a time parameter set for detecting whether the operation of the target task is abnormal, and may be a time required for normal operation of the target task (a certain margin may be set). For example, the time when the target task starts to run is T0, the preset delay time is Tw, the state of the target task is detected at time T0+ Tw, whether the target task is finished running or not is mainly detected, the target task should be finished running at this time in a normal case, and if the target task is still in a running state, the running speed is slower than an expected level, and a stuck situation may exist.
In an optional implementation manner, a Timer may be set, the time of the Timer is set to a preset delay time, when the target task starts to run, the Timer is triggered to start timing, and when the preset delay time is reached, the state of the target task is detected.
And step S240, if the target task is in the running state after the delay time is preset, calling a preset real-time frequency modulation thread to modulate frequency.
From the above, the target task is still in the running state after the preset delay time. And (3) the abnormal conditions such as jamming and the like possibly occur during the running of the target task, frequency modulation is required to be immediately carried out, the running is improved, and a real-time frequency modulation thread can be called. In the present exemplary embodiment, the real-time frequency modulation thread is a thread for fast frequency modulation set based on the delayed frequency modulation mode, and the principle is to read the task conditions in the running queue, determine parameters such as the degree and time of frequency modulation according to the task conditions, and immediately perform frequency modulation. And when the delay frequency modulation mode is started, calling the real-time frequency modulation thread to perform frequency modulation. Specifically, because the target task runs in the running queue at this time, the real-time frequency modulation thread may read information of the task to perform frequency modulation, and if the running queue further includes other tasks requiring frequency modulation, the real-time frequency modulation thread may also read information of the tasks to perform frequency modulation. Taking the target task as the task a in the task group to be operated as an example, the real-time frequency modulation thread reads the information of the task a, and determines that the task a is allocated to the CPU #1 to operate, so that the frequency of the CPU #1 can be correspondingly increased.
Based on the above, in the exemplary embodiment, in response to the target task in the task group to be executed starting to run, when the delayed frequency modulation mode is in the off state, the native scheduler is called to perform frequency modulation, when the delayed frequency modulation mode is in the on state, the state of the target task is detected after the preset delay time, and if the delayed frequency modulation mode is in the running state, the preset real-time frequency modulation thread is called to perform frequency modulation. On the one hand, by setting the delay frequency modulation mode and the real-time frequency modulation thread, when a task with higher operation performance requirement is operated, the real-time frequency modulation thread can be called in the delay frequency modulation mode, and the quick real-time frequency modulation is carried out according to the task condition in the operation queue, so that the time interval of the frequency modulation is basically coincided with the time interval of the task operation, the problem that the frequency modulation is not matched with the task operation in the related technology is solved, the pertinence and the timeliness of the frequency modulation are improved, and the actual acceleration effect of the task operation after the frequency modulation is improved. On the other hand, the preset delay time is set, and whether the target task finishes running or not is detected after the preset delay time for starting running is reached, so that whether abnormal conditions such as jamming occur or not is judged quickly to determine whether frequency modulation is needed or not. On the other hand, by controlling the on-off state of the delay frequency modulation mode, a frequency modulation mechanism can be switched between the real-time frequency modulation thread and the native scheduler, the real-time frequency modulation thread can realize task-level fast frequency modulation, and the scheduler can realize resource allocation based on frequency modulation from the perspective of load, so that a proper frequency modulation mode can be selected according to actual requirements, and higher flexibility is achieved.
As can be seen from the above, the present exemplary embodiment actually performs control of frequency modulation in units of task groups. Considering that some task groups have higher requirements on processing performance and need frequency modulation, and some task groups have lower requirements on processing performance and do not need frequency modulation. In an alternative embodiment, before step S210, the following steps may be performed:
when a task group to be operated is generated, acquiring load parameters of the task group to be operated;
determining whether frequency modulation is needed according to the load parameters;
when it is determined that frequency modulation is required, step S210 is performed.
The load parameter is one or more index parameters reflecting how much system resources are occupied by the task group to be run, or the performance requirement is high or low, such as occupancy rate of CPU, data amount run in unit time, and the like. When generating the task group to be run, the load parameter can be estimated through historical running data because the tasks in the task group are not actually run, or calculated through distributed and determined parameters such as the number of threads and the like. According to the load parameters of the task group to be operated, whether frequency modulation is needed when the task group to be operated operates can be determined, specifically, frequency modulation is needed when the load parameters are high, or frequency modulation is needed when the residual resources of the current system are not enough to support the load of the task group to be operated, and the like. When the frequency modulation is determined to be needed, monitoring the state of a task group to be operated, and when a target task starts to operate, performing frequency modulation by adopting the method steps shown in FIG. 2; when it is determined that frequency modulation is not required, the tasks therein may be normally operated at the current processor frequency.
Further, determining whether frequency modulation is needed according to the load parameter may be specifically implemented by the following method:
calculating the maximum acceleration value of the task group to be operated according to the load parameters;
and when the maximum acceleration value is higher than a preset value, determining that frequency modulation is needed.
The maximum acceleration value is a measure of the maximum acceleration degree required during the running of the task group to be run, and may be, for example, a Boost Max value in an Android system, and the maximum acceleration value is calculated by calculating an average acceleration value through a load parameter and by adding an amplitude value to the average acceleration value through estimation of a peak value condition of the task group to be run on the basis of the average acceleration value. The maximum acceleration value has the property of estimation and prediction, and in order to smoothly run the task, a certain margin can be reserved when the maximum acceleration value is calculated, for example, an amplitude value is obtained by adding a certain margin to the peak value of the task group to be run, and the maximum acceleration value is calculated according to the margin, so that the performance requirement of the task can be met. The preset value is a measure of the normal operation capability of the system, can be set according to system hardware conditions, historical operation data, empirical values and the like, and can be regarded as a threshold value for measuring whether acceleration is needed or not. By calculating the maximum acceleration value and comparing the maximum acceleration value with the preset value, the running condition of the task group to be run can be accurately estimated to determine whether frequency modulation is needed or not, so that the condition of frequency modulation when frequency modulation is not needed is reduced, and the use efficiency of system resources is improved.
In an alternative embodiment, the target task may be a first task in the group of tasks to be run; starting to run a target task in the task group to be run may include: and the first task in the task group to be run enters the running queue. By the mode, whether the abnormality such as blockage exists or not is determined when the first task of the task group to be operated runs, so that real-time frequency modulation is carried out under the abnormal condition, and the normal running of the subsequent tasks can be ensured.
Further, after the preset real-time frequency modulation thread is called for frequency modulation, when the last task of the task group to be operated is finished, the real-time frequency modulation thread can be closed. Before the real-time frequency modulation thread is closed, the running frequency of the processor can be restored. And when the operation of the last task is finished, indicating that the operation of the task group to be operated is finished, and closing the real-time frequency modulation thread without performing frequency modulation. In other words, in the case that frequency modulation is not normally required, the real-time frequency modulation thread is in an off or sleep state, and subsequently, if other task groups requiring frequency modulation are generated and the delay frequency modulation mode is in an on state, the real-time frequency modulation thread may be started again.
In an alternative embodiment, the target task may be a thread running periodically, and the preset delay time may be a running time of the thread in each cycle. For example, under normal conditions, the target task runs for a time Tw in each period, when the target task runs in the first period, the preset delay time is set to Tw, whether the target task runs on the card pause or not is determined by detecting the running state of the target task after the time Tw, if the target task runs on the card pause, frequency modulation is immediately carried out, and the target task can be guaranteed to run normally in the subsequent period.
Further, the thread may be a rendering thread of consecutive frames, and the preset delay time may be a time of each frame. For example, when a game is executed, a game screen is rendered frame by frame, and assuming that the frame rate is 50fps, that is, the time per frame is 20ms, the preset delay time may be set to 20 ms. When each frame starts to be rendered, 20ms is delayed to detect whether the rendering of the frame is completed or not, if the frame is still being rendered, the operation of a rendering thread is blocked, and at the moment, optimization and acceleration are performed in a frequency modulation mode, so that the rendering speed of a subsequent frame can be ensured.
Fig. 4 shows a schematic diagram of a frequency modulation process. The Task Group to be operated comprises n tasks, namely Task1, Task2, … and Task. When the first Task1 starts to run, the system detects the value of the current transferred Boost variable, and the following processes are respectively carried out:
if the value of the delayed Boost variable is On when the Task1 starts to run, indicating that the delay frequency modulation mode is in an opening state, detecting whether the Task1 is still in a running state after a preset delay time Tw; if the Task1 is still in the running state after Tw, it indicates that a stuck occurs, and a real-time frequency modulation thread is called to modulate the frequency of the corresponding CPU according to the situation of the Boost Group, for example, if the Task runs on the CPU2, the real-time frequency modulation thread adjusts the frequency of the CPU2, usually increasing the running frequency to improve the performance; during the operation period of the Boost Group, if the value of the delayed Boost variable is not changed, namely the value is always kept to be On, the real-time frequency modulation thread can continuously perform frequency modulation, and dynamic frequency modulation can be performed according to the real-time load condition.
If the value of the delayed Boost variable is detected to be Off when the Task1 starts to run, the delayed frequency modulation mode is indicated to be in a closed state, or although the value of the delayed Boost variable is On, the Task1 is detected to be already run after Tw, which indicates that the real-time frequency modulation is not needed, and a native frequency modulation mechanism can be adopted in both cases. Specifically, the maximum acceleration value Boost Max of the Boost Group can be calculated, the scheduler is called to update the global load parameter Utility according to the Boost Max value, and then the frequency modulation is performed on the CPU.
When the operation of the last task is finished, the current value of the delayed Boost variable is detected, if the value of the delayed Boost variable is On, a real-time frequency modulation thread is called to restore the CPU to the normal frequency, and if the value of the delayed Boost variable is Off, a scheduler is called to restore the CPU to the normal frequency by calculating Utility.
It needs to be supplemented that, during the operation of the Boost Group, after the real-time frequency modulation thread is called to increase the CPU frequency, if the value of the delayed Boost variable is modified to Off, the delayed frequency modulation mode is closed, and when the operation of the Boost Group is finished, the CPU frequency can be recovered through the scheduler; the opposite situation is also established, after the CPU frequency is improved by calling the scheduler, if the value of the delayed Boost variable is modified to be On, the delayed frequency modulation mode is started, and when the operation of the Boost Group is finished, the CPU frequency can be recovered through the real-time frequency modulation thread; that is, in the primary frequency modulation, the frequency up and down may be realized by different frequency modulation mechanisms, which is not limited in this disclosure.

In an alternative embodiment, the target task may be a first task in the group of tasks to be run; the mode detection module 510 may be further configured to detect a status of the delayed frequency modulation mode in response to a first task of the group of tasks to be executed entering the run queue.
Further, the real-time frequency modulation module 540 may be further configured to close the real-time frequency modulation thread when the operation of the last task of the task group to be operated is finished.
In an alternative embodiment, the target task may be a thread running periodically, and the preset delay time may be a running time of the thread in each cycle.
Further, the thread may include a rendering thread of consecutive frames, and the preset delay time may be a time of each frame.
In an alternative embodiment, the frequency modulation apparatus 500 may further include: and the mode control module is used for acquiring a program to which the tasks in the task group to be operated belong when the task group to be operated is generated, and starting the delayed frequency modulation mode if the program to which the tasks in the task group to be operated belong comprises a preset program.
