Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.
It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
In practical applications, the process of starting the electronic device includes the initialization of a storage space, the initialization of a hardware device, the start of an operating system, and the like. Specifically, after the electronic device is powered on and started, the storage space needs to be initialized first, after the storage space is initialized successfully, the hardware device of the electronic device is initialized based on the storage space, so that the operating system is started, and after the operating system is started, the electronic device is started. Illustratively, the start-up of firmware; the Firmware boot includes, but is not limited to, a Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) boot, a Basic Input Output System (BIOS) boot, and a Bootloader (Bootloader).
Specifically, the UEFI is started up by Pre-EF Initialization (PEI), Driver Execution Environment (DXE), and other phases. In the PEI phase, a starting mode of a memory space is detected, the memory space is initialized, a driver execution environment is prepared for the DXE phase, parameters required by the DXE phase are packaged in a switching Block (HOB) list mode, and the parameters are transmitted to the DXE phase. Enough initialized memory space is available in the DXE phase, so that the initialization work of UEFI hardware equipment can be completed.
At present, an electronic device can support a large amount of Memory space, for example, the Memory space may be a Random Access Memory (RAM), a Read-Only Memory (ROM), or a Dual-Inline-Memory-Modules (DIMMs) in the electronic device. When the memory space is a DIMM, the initialization time of a single DIMM on a particular platform is fixed, so the larger the number of DIMMs, the longer the time it takes for an electronic device to start up on the DIMM initialization. For example, taking Intel Purley 8Socket Server as an example, if there are 96 DIMMs (12 × 8), where 12 represents the maximum amount of memory supported by a single CPU and 8 represents the amount of CPU. The time required for the electronic device to completely initialize the DIMM is about 5 minutes, and after the initialization of the DIMM is completed, the hardware device can start the electronic device by utilizing the DIMM, which seriously affects the starting speed of the electronic device.
In view of the above problem, an embodiment of the present application provides an information processing method applied to a first device, and as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps:
The request information is used for requesting the target storage space of which the initialization of the second device is completed.
In this embodiment, the first device may be a server, a computer, or a like device, and the second device may be a device that has already completed initialization of the storage space before the first device starts the first storage space, including but not limited to a Baseboard Management Control (BMC) device or a peripheral component interconnect (PCIe) device that has already completed initialization of the storage space.
The BMC device is a device used for upgrading firmware of a machine, checking machine devices and other operations when the machine is not started. The BMC device is configured with its own Memory space, such as a Random Access Memory (RAM). The PCIe device, as a high-speed serial computer expansion bus, has a high transmission rate, and includes PCIe flash memory cards, PCIe video memories, and the like, wherein the PCIe devices also have their own storage spaces, such as RAM and the like.
The memory space of the BMC device or the PCIe device is small, so the memory space can be initialized within 5 seconds after being powered on. After the power-on sequence is completed, the first device can enter the boot program, which usually takes 5 seconds later, so the memory space of the BMC device or the PCIe device is usually initialized before the first device is booted. Therefore, either the BMC device or the PCIe device may be used as the second device. The first device initializes the hardware device of the first device by borrowing the target storage space of which the initialization of the BMC device or the PCIe device is completed.
In the embodiment of the application, the first device and the second device can be in data connection, and the first device and the second device communicate in a wired or wireless mode and can send communication information. When the first device is started, request information may be directly sent to the second device to request the initialized storage space in the second device to perform a starting process of the first device.
Therefore, the hardware device of the first device is initialized by using the storage space of the BMC device or the PCIe device, the initialization of the hardware device can be completed without waiting for the initialization of the first storage space of the first device, and the hardware device can be initialized while the first storage space of the first device is initialized, so that the starting speed of the first device is greatly improved, and the starting time of the first device is saved.
And 102, acquiring first feedback information sent by the second device aiming at the request information, and initializing the hardware device of the first device based on the target storage space to complete the starting of the first device.
The first feedback information is used for indicating that the first device can utilize the target storage space of the second device.
In this embodiment of the application, the first device receives the first feedback information of the second device, which may indicate that the second device agrees that the first device uses its target storage space, so that the first device directly uses the target storage space to initialize the hardware device of the first device, and further, based on the initialized hardware device, starts the operating system to complete the start of the device.
In the information processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, when an instruction for starting the first device is responded, request information is sent to the second device connected with the first device; the request information is used for requesting a target storage space of which initialization is completed by the second equipment; acquiring first feedback information sent by second equipment aiming at the request information, and initializing hardware equipment of the first equipment based on a target storage space so as to finish starting the first equipment; the first feedback information is used for indicating that the first device can utilize the target storage space of the second device, so that the first device can initialize the hardware device of the first device by borrowing the target storage space of the second device which has completed initialization when the first device is started, the starting time of the first device is saved, and the starting speed of the first device is improved.
An embodiment of the present application provides an information processing method applied to a second device, and as shown in fig. 2, the method includes the following steps:
The request information is used for requesting the target storage space of which the initialization of the second device is completed.
In this embodiment, the second device may be a device that has completed initialization of the memory space before the first device starts the first memory space, including but not limited to a BMC device or a PCIe device that has completed initialization of the memory space.
In practical application, the memory space of the BMC device or the PCIe device is small, so the memory space can be initialized within 5 seconds after being powered on. After the power-on sequence is completed, the first device can enter the boot program, which usually takes 5 seconds later, so the memory space of the BMC device or the PCIe device is usually initialized before the first device is booted. Therefore, either the BMC device or the PCIe device may be used as the second device. The first device initializes the hardware device of the first device by borrowing the target storage space of which the initialization of the BMC device or the PCIe device is completed.
In the embodiment of the application, the first device and the second device can be in data connection, and the first device and the second device communicate in a wired or wireless mode and can send communication information. The second electronic device may receive the request information sent by the first device through the data connection.
In the embodiment of the present application, the storage status at least includes the size of the total storage space and the size of the available storage space.
The second device extracts the size of the storage space required by the first device from the request information according to the request information, detects the storage state of the second storage space and determines whether the available storage space currently possessed by the second device can meet the size of the storage space requested by the first device. And when the size of the required storage space can not be met, sending feedback information to inform the first equipment. And if the condition is met, the second device sends first feedback information to the first device, and the characteristic that the second device maps the target storage space which is initialized.
In the information processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, when an instruction for starting the first device is responded, request information is sent to the second device connected with the first device; the request information is used for requesting a target storage space of which initialization is completed by the second equipment; acquiring first feedback information sent by second equipment aiming at the request information, and initializing hardware equipment of the first equipment based on a target storage space so as to finish starting the first equipment; the first feedback information is used for indicating that the first device can utilize the target storage space of the second device, so that the first device can initialize the hardware device of the first device by borrowing the target storage space of the second device which has completed initialization when the first device is started, the starting time of the first device is saved, and the starting speed of the first device is improved.
Based on the foregoing embodiments, an embodiment of the present application provides an information processing method, which is shown in fig. 3 and includes the following steps:
step 301, the first device initializes a first storage space of the first device in response to an instruction to start the first device, and sends request information to a second device connected to the first device.
The request information is used for requesting the target storage space of which the initialization of the second device is completed.
In the embodiment of the application, when the first device receives the start instruction, the first device initializes the first storage space of the first device, and simultaneously sends information requesting that the second device has completed the initialized target storage space to the second device connected with the first device.
Step 302, the second device receives request information sent by the first device connected to the second device.
Here, the second device acquires the storage state of the second storage space after receiving the request information. The memory state includes, in addition to the total memory size, the size of the available memory, the size of the memory occupied by each process running, and the priority of each process.
Further, the second device determines the size of the currently available storage space of the second device and the size of the storage space of the low-priority process that the second device can close according to the storage state of the second storage space.
Step 303, if the size of the available storage space of the second device is larger than the size of the target storage space, obtaining the target storage space, and directly entering step 305, and if the size of the available storage space of the second device is smaller than the size of the target storage space, executing step 304.
The size of the available storage space of the second device is larger than that of the target storage space, and the target storage space is directly determined from the second storage space.
Step 304, if the size of the available storage space in the current second storage space is smaller than the size of the target storage space, the second device controls the target process meeting the first preset condition in the second storage space of the second device to enter a dormant state, and releases the storage space occupied by the target process to obtain the target storage space.
The second device receives the request information of the target storage space sent by the first device, and the second device detects whether the size of the available storage space in the second storage space can meet the size of the target storage space of the request information. The size of the available storage space in the second storage space is used for representing the second storage space in which the second device has completed initialization, and the available storage space can be directly mapped to the first device, and the first device can directly utilize the available storage space. In the process of preparing the target storage space by the second device, the first device may continuously detect a state of preparing the target storage space by the second device, specifically, the state may be obtained by sending request information indicating whether preparation is completed to the second device, or the second device may continuously send information indicating a state of preparing the target storage space to the first device.
When the available storage space of the first device is smaller than the size of the target storage space required by the first device, the second device controls the target process meeting the first preset condition in the second storage space to enter a dormant state. The process meeting the first preset condition may specifically represent a low-priority process; the sleep state may specifically indicate that any operation (except the power-on button) performed on the target process is an invalid operation, and the operation may be started only after the target process is in the standby state, and all real-time data run by the target process is stored in the hard disk, and all unnecessary hardware is turned off to save power. When the target process enters the dormant state, the storage space occupied by the process is released, and the available space of the second storage space is superposed with the storage space released by the process to obtain the target storage space. And the second equipment sends the first feedback information to the first equipment so that the first equipment initializes the hardware equipment of the first equipment based on the target storage space.
In other embodiments of the present application, if the size of the available storage space in the second storage space is smaller than the size of the target storage space, and there is no target process that meets the first preset condition in the second storage space, the second feedback information is sent to the first device. This process is described in detail in example four.
And 305, the second device sends the first feedback information to the first device, so that the first device initializes the hardware device of the first device based on the target storage space.
The first feedback information is used for indicating that the first device can utilize the target storage space of the second device.
Step 306, the first device obtains the first feedback information sent by the second device for the request information, obtains the logical address of the target storage space of the second device, and converts the logical address of the target storage space into the target physical address.
In this embodiment of the present application, the first device may set a preset duration, where the preset duration represents a time required by the first device to request the target storage space of the second device. And receiving the first feedback information within a preset time length, and representing that the request of the first equipment borrowing the target storage space from the second equipment is successful. For example, the predetermined time may be 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 25 seconds, etc., and is not limited herein.
And when the first equipment does not receive the first feedback information within the preset time length, the first equipment is considered to fail to request the target storage space of the second equipment. In this embodiment, the first device may utilize a target storage space of the second device, and obtain a logical address of the target storage space, where the logical address refers to an address of a memory unit (memory cell), a storage unit (storage element), and a network host (network host), and the logical address may also be referred to as a virtual address. The logical address may be translated into a physical address by an address translator (address translator) or a mapping function. The Physical Address refers to information stored in a memory in units of bytes, and in order to correctly store or acquire the information, each byte unit is given a unique memory Address, which is called a Physical Address (Physical Address) and is also called an actual effective Address or an absolute Address. The internal memory of the logical address needs to be calculated or transformed in an addressing mode to obtain an actual effective address, namely a physical address.
Step 307, the first device initializes the hardware device of the first device by using the target physical address, so as to complete the startup of the first device.
In this embodiment of the present application, the first device initializes the hardware device of the first device by using the actual effective address, so as to complete the start of the first device.
Step 308, the first device monitors the initialization state of the first storage space of the first device.
In this embodiment of the application, the first device continuously monitors whether the first storage space of the first device is initialized, and the initialized state includes that the first storage space is initialized or the first storage space is being initialized.
Step 309, when the first storage space is initialized, the first device transfers the initialization data in the target storage space to the first storage space of the first device, and sends a notification message for releasing the target storage space to the second device.
The initialization data represents data obtained by initializing hardware equipment of the first equipment.
In this embodiment of the application, the first device performs initialization operation by using the first parameter of the second device as the target physical address and the second parameter as the mapping length corresponding to each hardware device, and data corresponding to the initialized hardware device is generated in the initialization process. When the initialization of the first storage space of the first device is completed, the first device carries the data obtained by initializing the hardware device to the first storage space. After the initialized data transportation is finished, the first equipment returns the target storage space to the second equipment and sends notification information to the second equipment; wherein the notification information characterizes a message to return to the target storage space.
In an embodiment, when the second device receives a notification message that the first device returns the target storage space, the second device recovers the target storage space, releases the recovered target storage space, and wakes up the target process in the sleep state, where the target process represents a low-priority process.
In another embodiment, when the first device crashes during the booting process, the second device automatically recovers the mapped target storage space from the first device after a specified time and wakes up the low priority process in a sleep state.
It should be noted that, for the explanation of the same steps or concepts in the embodiments of the present application and in other embodiments, reference may be made to the description in other embodiments, which are not repeated herein.
In the information processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, when an instruction for starting the first device is responded, request information is sent to the second device connected with the first device; the request information is used for requesting a target storage space of which initialization is completed by the second equipment; acquiring first feedback information sent by second equipment aiming at the request information, and initializing hardware equipment of the first equipment based on a target storage space so as to finish starting the first equipment; the first feedback information is used for indicating that the first device can utilize the target storage space of the second device, so that the first device can initialize the hardware device of the first device by borrowing the target storage space of the second device which has completed initialization when the first device is started, the starting time of the first device is saved, and the starting speed of the first device is improved.
Based on the foregoing embodiments, an embodiment of the present application provides an information processing method, which is shown in fig. 4 and includes the following steps:
step 401, the first device initializes a first storage space of the first device in response to an instruction to start the first device, and sends request information to a second device connected to the first device.
Step 402, the second device receives request information sent by the first device connected with the second device.
Step 403, if the size of the available storage space in the current second storage space is smaller than the size of the target storage space, and there is no target process meeting the first preset condition in the second storage space, the second device sends second feedback information to the first device.
The second feedback information is used for indicating the information of failure of requesting the target storage space of the first device.
In this embodiment of the application, if the size of the available storage space in the second storage space of the current second device is still smaller than the size of the target storage space required by the first device, and there is no low-priority process that can release the storage space in the second storage space, it is described that the second storage space of the second device cannot satisfy the request of the target storage space required by the first device. The second device will send information to the first device that the request for the target storage space failed.
Step 404, the first device does not receive the first feedback information sent by the second device for the request information within the preset time length or receives the second feedback information within the preset time length, and monitors the initialization state of the first storage space of the first device.
In an embodiment of the present application, in an embodiment, the first device does not receive the available target storage space of the second device within a preset duration, or in another embodiment, the first device receives a request message requesting that the target storage space of the second device fails within a preset duration, and the hardware device of the first device initializes the hardware device by using the first storage space after waiting for the initialization of the first storage space of the first device to be completed. At this time, the first device will continuously monitor the initialization state of the first storage space. Wherein the initialization state includes that the first storage space has been initialized or the first storage space is being initialized.
Step 405, after the first storage space is initialized, the first device initializes the hardware device of the first device based on the first storage space to complete the starting of the first device.
In the embodiment of the application, after the first storage space of the first device is initialized, the first device initializes the hardware device by using the storage space. And when the hardware equipment completes initialization, representing that the first equipment completes starting operation.
In one embodiment, the first device first detects whether the memory DIMM has completed initialization at startup, and for example, the memory DIMM of the first device will already be initialized at warm restart, i.e., memory is available, and the memory DIMM of the first device will not need to be reinitialized. At this time, the hardware device of the first device is initialized directly by using the already initialized memory space DIMM of the first device.
