Description
Technical Field
The present application relates to the field of computer technology, and in particular, to an information processing apparatus and a method of configuring a target device of the information processing apparatus.
Background
Currently, the architecture of data processing and storage of information processing devices can be summarized as a hybrid system. In the higher layers of the architecture, the access delay between each layer (i.e., between the processor and SRAM and between SRAM and DRAM) is about several times to 10 times. However, the access delay between DRAM and hard disk is significantly reduced from a level of 100ns to 100 μs, which is a hundreds or thousands of times different from other layers. This access delay causes bottlenecks in data transmission and storage at this layer, and directly causes a decrease in data processing efficiency of the information processing apparatus.
The advent of Storage Class Memory (SCM) solves the above-mentioned technical problems. The access delay of the storage class memory is about 1 to 10 mus, which is just between the DRAM and the hard disk. Therefore, the storage class memory can be set as an intermediate layer between the DRAM and the SSD, thereby filling the performance gap between the two and reducing the access delay from the processor to the hard disk.
Most initial configuration systems of information processing devices are based on Basic Input Output System (BIOS) or Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) implementations. With the rapid development of electronic technology, users have increasingly demanded a start-up speed of an information processing apparatus. However, in current platforms and boot processes, the configuration of memory and storage devices (especially storage class memory) takes up a significant amount of boot time. The system may also perform unnecessary initialization of one or more internal devices during configuration.
Disclosure of Invention
The present application seeks to mitigate or at least alleviate the above-mentioned problems or disadvantages by providing a new or otherwise improved method or apparatus for configuring memory and storage.
Accordingly, in one aspect, the present application is a method of configuring a target device of an information processing apparatus. The method comprises the following steps: receiving a configuration file for configuring the target device through a plurality of configuration phases, identifying information from the configuration file at each configuration phase to configure the target device; and configuring the target device in turn at each configuration stage. The configuration file includes information for configuring the target device at each configuration stage. The method is performed independently of an operating system of the information processing apparatus.
In another aspect, the present application provides an information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus includes a target device, a receiving module, an identifying module, and a configuring module. The receiving module is used for receiving configuration files for configuring the target device through a plurality of configuration stages. The configuration file includes information for configuring the target device at each configuration stage. The identification module is configured to identify information from a configuration file for configuring the target device at each configuration stage. The configuration module is configured to sequentially configure the target device at each configuration stage and operate independently of an operating system of the information processing apparatus.
The application provides a better user experience for users of information processing devices by preferentially executing storage media, preferably, initialization and configuration of Storage Class Memory (SCM). Meanwhile, since the configuration module performs the identified stage as early as possible and performs the necessary reset, the initialization of other internal devices is skipped multiple times, and the initialization of these internal devices is performed after the entire configuration cycle of the storage class memory is completed. This rearrangement of the start-up priorities avoids unnecessary initialization of the internal devices. Accordingly, the present application provides a method of starting an information processing apparatus, which greatly saves the start-up time.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENT (S) OF INVENTION
Embodiments of the present application will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which embodiments of the application are shown. This application may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the application to those skilled in the art. Like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout the present application.
Fig. 1 shows a block diagram of an information processing apparatus 100.
Referring to fig. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 includes a receiving module 12, an identifying module 14, and a configuring module 16. As shown in fig. 1, the information processing apparatus 100 is configured to receive the configuration file 18 via the reception module 12. The configuration file 18 is configured to configure/initialize at least the target device 30 and/or the internal device 32.
The identification module 14 identifies or extracts the configuration phases that are documented or presented in the configuration file 18. The configuration module 16 loads the configuration file 18 and executes the configuration file 18 according to the configuration phase identified by the identification module 14 or sequentially executes the identified configuration phase to configure the target device 30.
Assume that target device 30 is a memory device. The configuration file 18 includes at least commands for configuring a memory used in the information processing apparatus. The identification module 14 identifies each configuration phase of its process, e.g., a first configuration phase to initialize memory devices and allocate a portion of memory to volatile memory and nonvolatile memory, a second phase to create a namespace in nonvolatile memory, a third phase to configure a secure mode of memory with an information processing device, and so forth. The configuration file 18 and the identified phases are loaded by the configuration module 16 and executed accordingly to configure the memory.
Alternatively, the device 10 also includes a configuration memory 36. Configuration memory 36 is configured to store the identified configuration phases and/or configuration data and/or configuration files 18. The stored information is configured to be read or invoked by the configuration module 16. In one embodiment, the configuration phase may also include at least one subcommand for configuring the target device 30.
In one embodiment, configuration module 16 is configured to operate independently of the operating system of information processing device 100. Configuration module 16 may execute configuration file 18 to configure target device 30 on the initial configuration system of information handling device 100 prior to the start-up of the operating system of information handling device 100. Alternatively, the configuration module 16 may be a module of the initial configuration system and/or the initial configuration system itself. Configuration file 18 may also be executed after a start-up or initialization of its operating system.
Referring to fig. 2, a method 200 of the information processing apparatus 100 is thereby shown. The method 200 includes sequential steps to be performed by an initial configuration system of the information processing apparatus 100. The initial configuration system may be a Basic Input Output System (BIOS) or Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI). The steps include:
step 202, loading a receiving module through an initial configuration system, and loading/receiving a configuration file 18 through the receiving module;
step 204, loading an identification module and identifying a configuration stage of the configuration file 18; and
step 206, loading the configuration module and sequentially executing the configuration phase to configure the target device 30.
In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the method 200 for configuring the target device 30 further comprises:
step 208, if the next configuration phase needs to be reset, immediately resetting the initial configuration system of the device during execution of the identified configuration phase; and
step 210, updating the configuration module and the initial configuration system according to the latest execution result of the configuration stage via the reset of the initial configuration system.
The method 200 for configuring the target device 30 may be implemented by the information processing apparatus 100 as shown in fig. 1. In particular, configuration file 18 may be received by receiving module 12, stored in configuration memory 36 and executed by configuration module 16. The configuration phases may be identified by the identification module 14, stored in the configuration memory 16, and executed as an execution guide for the configuration file 18, or directly and sequentially by the configuration module 16 to configure the target device 30.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 shows a diagram of a configuration file 300 executed by the configuration module 16. Fig. 3 shows configuration phases identified or created by identification module 14 for configuration file 18, and these configuration phases 302, 304, and 306 are to be performed by the apparatus of fig. 1 or the method of fig. 2. Configuration file 300 includes at least one of the following: a first command, first information, a first reset (if needed), a second command, second information, a second reset (if needed), or a combination thereof. Accordingly, the configuration phase identified by the identification module 14 includes: a first configuration stage 302 and a second configuration stage 304. The first configuration phase 302 is based on the first command and the first information. The second configuration stage 304 is based on the second command and the second information. Between execution of the first phase and execution of the second phase, the identification module 14 identifies whether a first reset of the initial configuration system is required to execute the second phase. If so, the identification module 14 will add a first reset request at the end of the first command and first information to reset the initial-configuration system. In this way, the added reset request will be executed by the configuration module 14 before the second phase execution (i.e., the next configuration phase), and then the initial configuration system is reset and updated for executing the next configuration phase. In another embodiment, the configuration file 300 further includes a third command, third information, a fourth command, and fourth information. These configuration phases, commands, and information are performed entirely by the configuration module 16 until the target device 30 is fully configured.
As shown in fig. 3, commands and information are recorded in the configuration file 300 in order. The relevant configuration phases may be determined sequentially by the identification module 14. Thus, the configuration phases are performed sequentially by the configuration module 16, i.e. the first phase 302 should be performed by the configuration module 16 before the second phase 304. At the end of each phase, the configuration module 16 will check if there is a reset request for each phase and if so, reset the initial configuration system. After resetting the interface of the initial configuration system and/or the configuration module 16 updated according to the latest execution result of the configuration phase, the next configuration phase is then executed. Alternatively, the commands and information in the configuration file are listed out of order. Thus, the identification module 14 identifies the configuration phase as follows. First, the identification module 14 traverses the configuration file 300 entirely. With this traversal, each command or command header is recorded in the configuration memory 36. Configuration module 16 will then sequentially execute the configuration phases recorded in configuration memory 36. If one configuration phase has a reset request, the configuration module 16 will record the configuration phase it has performed. The configuration module 16 will reset the initial configuration system and after resetting the initial configuration system, the configuration module 16 will continue to execute the next configuration phase until all configuration phases of the configuration file 300 are fully executed.
Assume that target device 30 is a memory apparatus. The configuration file includes a first command for allocating a storage unit of the memory as the nonvolatile memory, first information about an allocation ratio of the memory, a second command for a command for creating a namespace after allocation, and second information about a method of creating the namespace thereof. Accordingly, the first configuration phase is to allocate a portion of the memory cells of the memory as non-volatile memory, and the second configuration phase is to create a namespace in the allocated cells via some method. Since the first reset request exists at the end of the first phase, the configuration module 16 will reset the initial configuration system. After resetting the system back, the allocated portion will take effect in the memory device, and then the configuration module 16 may continue with the second configuration phase to create a namespace in the allocated non-volatile portion of the memory device. In another embodiment, the configuration file further includes a third command to encrypt the non-volatile memory and a fourth command to store the initial information to the memory. After executing the second command, the configuration module 16 executes the third command and the fourth command, respectively, until the configuration of the memory device is completed.
In one embodiment, target device 30 is a Storage Class Memory (SCM), and receiving module 12, identifying module 14, and configuring module 16 execute under a Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI). The storage class memory may be used as a general memory (volatile memory) or a persistent memory (nonvolatile memory), and may also be used as a hybrid storage mode including a volatile memory and a nonvolatile memory. Configuration of the storage class memory should be completed prior to initialization and boot of the operating system of the information handling device during UEFI booting. During configuration of the storage class memory, multiple restarts of the UEFI are required to validate the configuration phase in the storage class memory and to prepare for subsequent commands. In the prior art, the existing configuration method or system via UEFI is initiated by the boot process after initializing one or more internal devices 32, and then the configuration of the storage class memory is performed. The one or more internal devices 32 include, but are not limited to, USB devices, PCle devices, bus devices, and the like. Thus, as each restart procedure is performed by UEFI, the initialization of one or more internal devices 32 is repeated multiple times. Such repeated initialization of one or more internal devices 32 takes a significant amount of startup time and provides a user with an inefficient experience. As shown in fig. 4, the entire configuration process of the storage class memory is performed prior to the initialization of such an internal device 32 in accordance with an embodiment of the present application. Thus, this initialization is performed only once during the entire configuration or startup process. Thus, a lot of time is saved and the start-up procedure is accelerated.
According to the configuration file 300 shown in fig. 3. The configuration file for configuring the storage class memory at least comprises a first stage and a second stage. The first command includes at least a command regarding allocation of memory cells of the memory level memory as volatile memory or nonvolatile memory, or a hybrid memory mode including both volatile memory and nonvolatile memory. The first information includes at least allocation ratios of the volatile memory and the nonvolatile memory. The second command includes at least one of the following commands: a command to create a namespace in the non-volatile memory, a command to assign inputs and outputs to the volatile memory and encrypt the non-volatile memory, or a combination thereof. The second information includes at least one of a method of creating a namespace, an assigned input and output, and a method of encrypting the non-volatile memory, or a combination thereof in the non-volatile memory.
The first reset is required at least after the first phase is fully executed according to the first command and the first information. Initially, the interface to the storage class memory only includes a selection of whether to configure the storage class memory as volatile memory or as non-volatile memory and a portion therebetween. After the first phase is performed, the storage class memory has been configured as volatile memory or non-volatile memory or a combination thereof. After reset, a portion will be effectively allocated in storage class memory and then the create namespace process can be performed on the non-volatile memory portion.
As described herein, the configuration file 300 shown in fig. 3 is merely an example of the configuration file 18. Configuration file 300 may be a text file. The contents of the text file are written in a programming language readable by the configuration module 16. The content includes specified commands, information, and data for configuring the target device 30. Programming languages include, but are not limited to, c#, c++, assembly code, basic or hybrid programming languages. Alternatively, configuration file 300 or configuration file 18 may be in a format executable in configuration module 16. Including, but not limited to EXE, BAT, VBS, CMD, HTM, LOG, REG, LNG, INI, BMP, ICO, INF, XLS, PNG and RTF.
As shown in fig. 4, the overall startup procedure 400 of UEFI is thereby shown. The configuration process of the storage class memory is performed at system start-up in step 42. According to the information processing apparatus 100 shown in fig. 1. Step 56 in block 412 is performed by the receiving module 12. Step 58 in block 414 is performed by the identification module 14. Steps 46, 48, 50, 52 and 54 within block 416 are performed by configuration module 16. First, storage class memory is initialized via UEFI at step 44. Second, UEFI determines in step 46 that a new configuration exists or that no configuration is performed, preferably by traversing configuration store 36. If the result is "yes," UEFI or identification module 14 identifies or decodes the configuration file received from receiving module 12 and determines the configuration phase contained in configuration file 18. If the result is no, the UEFI continues to execute the identified configuration phases, commands, and information, which is identified by the UEFI, as previously provided via configuration file 18, and/or recorded in configuration memory 36. The configuration is performed sequentially by UEFI until a reset is required or all configuration phases are performed completely, as shown from step 48 to 54. If a reset is required, the entire UEFI system will restart, as shown in step 54. After restarting, the device state of the storage class memory will be updated. Meanwhile, the UEFI is configured to repeatedly perform steps 42-46 and is ready to perform the following steps described in configuration file 18 or the stages identified by the identification module in step 48. The execution of steps 48-54 may be repeated several times, as well as the restarting of their UEFI several times. After each restart, the device state of the storage class memory is updated according to the latest execution result and is ready for the next configuration stage or step. The entire configuration of the storage class memory is performed entirely by UEFI, as shown in step 50. The UEFI then begins to configure/initialize one or more internal devices 32 of the information handling apparatus. As shown in steps 60-64, the one or more internal devices 32 include, but are not limited to, USB, PCle, bus, graphics card, and sound card, or combinations thereof. After the initialization of the internal accessories and peripherals is completed, the system may be started to the UEFI setting or may be booted directly to the operating system at the option of the user, as shown in step 66. Notably, the process of configuring storage class memory via UEFI is independent of the operating system operation of the information handling device and occurs prior to its operating system startup.
Fig. 5 shows a flow chart illustrating the transmission of a configuration file to a UEFI or receiving module via different means. As shown, the configuration file 18 may be transmitted at least, but not limited to, via a network, a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), a local U-disk, a local storage device, or the like. In one embodiment, configuration file 18 defines the type, capacity, method of creating the namespace, and security state of the storage class memory to be executed by the UEFI.
As used herein, the means for configuring the target device 30, the receiving module 12, the identifying module 14, the configuring module 16, the configuration memory 36 may be a module or unit in the UEFI or the UEFI itself.
As used herein, a baseboard management controller is a specialized service processor that uses sensors to monitor the physical state of a computer, web server, or other hardware device and communicates with a system administrator through a separate connection. The baseboard management controller is part of the intelligent platform management interface and is typically contained on the motherboard or main circuit board of the device to be monitored. Accordingly, by executing a common profile via the baseboard management controller and UEFI, a plurality of information processing apparatuses or target devices connected commonly or individually to a plurality of information processing apparatuses can be simultaneously configured.
Although exemplary embodiments of the present application and their advantages have been described in detail, it should be understood that various changes, substitutions and alterations can be made herein without departing from the scope of the application.
