The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments with reference to the attached drawings.
Example 1
Referring to fig. 1, the present embodiment provides a method for setting a CPU shared serial port, which mainly includes the following steps:
the cpu serial port is connected to a UART1 serial port inside the BMC chip through an LPC bus, and is finally connected to a CPLD from an IO1 port; in the BMC, in order to implement CPU serial port shared input/output, a 2500-chip UART routing function is utilized, which is supported at a driver level, and UART1 is routed to UART3(ttyS2), and IO1 is routed to UART4(ttyS3) (which may be understood as a copy, and a copy may also be received through data streams of the original UART/IO).
The method is characterized in that a service of a socket-socket service is deployed on a BMC chip, and the service is automatically started along with the start of a BMC system, and is mainly responsible for establishing a local socket, monitoring the connection of an SOL client and executing the forwarding function of input and output data.
When sending a request to a CPU, both a remote terminal and a local control device (CPLD) can share request information of each other, and a specific implementation method is shown in fig. 2:
when a sol request initiated by an ipmi out-of-band command is connected to a local socket created by a container-sol, and a socket processing module detects that a terminal keyboard is input, the socket processing module sends a data stream to ttyS2 (a function on UART 3); the ttyS2 directly sends the data stream to the serial port of the cpu, and meanwhile, if a processing function specially monitoring the ttyS2 read event finds data, the processing function caches the data stream into a ringbuffer cache module; the local tty processing module is used as a consumer of the ring buffer, and when it is monitored that the cache module stores new data, the registered consumer processing function is called, the data is taken out from the cache module, and the data is sent to the actual physical serial port end through ttyS 3. The effect of this is: on a terminal screen of the SOL client, a keyboard inputs a command, and the command also appears on a terminal screen of a physical serial port;
When the CPU terminal is accessed through the BMC physical serial port, ttyS3 (function on UART 4) is passed. When the local tty processing module detects that the terminal has keyboard input, the data stream is sent to ttyS2(UART 3); the ttyS2 directly sends the data stream to the serial port of the cpu, and meanwhile, if a processing function specially monitoring the ttyS2 read event finds data, the processing function caches the data stream into a ringbuffer cache module; the socket processing module is used as a 'consumer' of the ringbuffer, calls the registered consumer processing function, takes out data from the buffer module, and sends the data to the socket end through the local socket connection. The effect of this is: on the terminal screen of the physical serial port end, the keyboard inputs commands, and simultaneously, the commands appear on the terminal screen of the SOL client.
When the CPU returns the requested data, both the remote terminal and the local control device (CPLD) can share the returned data, and the specific implementation method is shown in fig. 3:
when data is sent to the BMC through the serial port of the CPU, and the processing function specially monitoring the ttyS2 read event finds the data, the data is cached as a ringbuffer cache module; the socket processing module and the local tty module are respectively used as 'consumers' of the ringbuffer, and respectively call the registered consumer processing function, take out data from the buffer module, and respectively display the data stream back to respective terminals through the socket and ttyS 3. The effect of this is: and a command is input from the SOL or the physical serial port terminal, after the carriage return is clicked, a command result is returned from the serial port of the CPU, and the command result is simultaneously displayed on the terminal screens of the SOL and the physical serial port, so that the purpose of shared output is achieved.
