In this embodiment, the memory controller 160 is an OTP microcontroller, and the memory 120 is an OTP memory.
In particular, the OTP microcontroller is used to control the OTP memory, which is a special memory, and the OTP memory only supports one-time programming, and cannot be changed and cleared again once the programming is successful, and normally, the OTP memory is already programmed in production, so that the OTP microcontroller can only perform a read operation on the OTP memory during use.
With reference to fig. 2, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a storage booting method, which is applied to the storage booting system 100, and the storage booting method includes steps S110 to S140.
In step S110, the memory controller 160 and the microcontroller 140 are respectively awakened by an awakening command input by an external device.
It is understood that before step S110 is executed, the storage booting system 100 should be in an un-awake state, wherein the un-awake state includes any one of a sleep state, a standby state or a sleep state.
It is understood that the power consumption of the storage booting system 100 in the hibernation state is lower than the power consumption of the storage booting system 100 in the operation state.
It is understood that the power consumption of the storage booting system 100 in the hibernation state is lower than the power consumption of the storage booting system 100 in the sleep state; the power consumption of the storage booting system 100 in the sleep state is lower than the power consumption of the storage booting system 100 in the standby state; the power consumption of the storage booting system 100 in the standby state is lower than the power consumption of the storage booting system 100 in the operating state.
Optionally, in this embodiment, the non-awake state is the sleep state.
Before step S110 is executed, the storage booting method according to the embodiment of the present invention further includes that when the microcontroller 140 and the storage controller 160 in the working state receive a sleep command sent by an external device, the microcontroller 140 controls the storage controller 160 to configure the storage 120 according to the sleep command, so that the storage 120 enters a sleep state, and after the storage 120 enters the sleep state, the storage controller 160 and the microcontroller 140 enter the sleep state, so that the storage booting system 100 enters the sleep state.
It is understood that the storage booting system 100 may be in any one of the operating state, the sleep state and the standby state before entering the hibernation state.
It is understood that the configuration mode of the microcontroller 140 controlling the memory controller 160 to configure the memory 120 according to the sleep command includes a software configuration mode. The microcontroller 140 controlling the memory controller 160 to perform the software configuration on the memory 120 according to the sleep command comprises: the microcontroller 140 sends a sleep configuration command to the memory controller 160 according to the sleep command, the memory controller 160 receives the sleep configuration command and analyzes the sleep configuration command to obtain sleep configuration parameters, and configures the memory 120 according to the sleep configuration parameters, and the configured memory 120 enters the sleep state.
In step S120, the microcontroller 140 sends an information reading command to the memory controller 160 after being awakened.
It is understood that, after being woken up, the microcontroller 140 needs to read the boot information stored in the memory 120 through the memory controller 160 and boot the memory boot system 100 based on the boot information, and therefore, the microcontroller 140 needs to send an information read command to the memory controller 160 to read the boot information.
In step S130, the memory controller 160 receives the information reading command after being awakened, wakes up the memory 120 according to the information reading command, and reads the start information in the memory 120 and sends the start information to the microcontroller 140 after the memory 120 is awakened.
In this embodiment, the waking up the memory 120 by the memory controller 160 according to the information reading command includes: the memory controller 160 executes the information reading command, reads the boot information in the memory 120 in the sleep state, and changes the bus signal of the memory boot system 100 from a high level to a low level when the reading fails, so as to trigger the pre-wake-up module 162 in the memory controller 160, so that the pre-wake-up module 162 sends a level signal to the memory 120 to wake up the memory 120, and after the memory 120 is woken up, the memory controller 160 changes the bus signal of the memory boot system 100 from the low level to the high level.
In this embodiment, when the memory controller 160 changes the bus signal of the memory booting system 100 from high level to low level, the memory 120 is in an invalid state for read and write operations.
In this embodiment, when the memory controller 160 changes the bus signal of the memory booting system 100 from low level to high level, the memory 120 is in a valid state for read and write operations.
Specifically, when the memory 120 is an OTP memory and the memory controller 160 is an OTP microcontroller, the OTP microcontroller can only read the OTP memory, when the OTP microcontroller is woken up to receive the information reading command, the reading fails when the reading operation is performed on the start information in the OTP memory in the sleep state according to the information reading command, and when the reading fails, the OTP microcontroller changes the bus signal of the memory start-up system 100 from a high level to a low level, and at this time, the OTP memory is in an invalid read operation state, and at the same time, the change of the bus signal triggers the pre-wake-up module 162 in the OTP microcontroller to send a level signal to the OTP memory to wake up the OTP memory, and when the memory is woken up, the OTP microcontroller changes the bus signal of the memory start-up system 100 from a low level to a high level, at this time, the OTP memory is switched from the invalid state to the valid state, and the OTP microcontroller reads the start information in the OTP memory and sends the start information to the microcontroller 140.
In step S140, the microcontroller 140 completes self-boot based on the boot information, and boots the memory 120 and the memory controller 160 based on the boot information, so that the memory boot system 100 enters the operating state.
In this embodiment, the BOOT information in the memory 120 includes a BOOT code, where the BOOT code is a code that is executed when the storage BOOT system 100 enters the operating state from the sleep state.
Specifically, the startup information in the memory 120 further includes calibration parameters of the power supply or the clock, the number of the microcontroller 140, and the software code version information.
It can be understood that the BOOT code is a code having a system BOOT function, a power-on self-test function, a device driver, and the like, and the microcontroller 140 may support the storage BOOT system 100 to perform operations such as root file system loading, NFS mount, and image file check during BOOT by running the BOOT code, so as to ensure normal BOOT of the memory 120, the microcontroller 140, and the storage controller 160, and thus the storage BOOT system 100 smoothly enters the operating state after normal BOOT.
Referring to fig. 3, the present invention describes the sleep and wake-up of the microcontroller 140, the memory controller 160, and the memory 120 in the memory booting system 100, and the bus signals related to the readable and writable states of the memory 120.
In fig. 3, when the level signals of the control pins of the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 are at a high level, it indicates that the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 are in a non-sleep state, and when the level signals of the control pins of the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 are at a low level, it indicates that the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 are in the sleep state or the power-off state.
When the level signal of the control pin of the memory 120 is at a high level, it indicates that the memory 120 is in the sleep state, and when the level signal of the control pin of the memory 120 is at a low level, it indicates that the memory 120 is in the non-sleep state.
In this embodiment, the non-sleep state may be any one of the operating state, the standby state, and the sleep state.
The bus signal is a bus signal of the memory boot system 100, and when the bus signal is at a high level, it indicates that the read/write operation performed by the memory controller 160 on the memory 120 is valid, and when the bus signal is at a low level, it indicates that the read/write operation performed by the memory controller 160 on the memory 120 is invalid.
In fig. 3, when the level signals of the control pins of the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 are at a high level, it indicates that the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 are in a non-sleep state, and when the level signals of the control pins of the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 are at a low level, it indicates that the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 are in a sleep state or a power-off state.
When the level signal of the control pin of the memory 120 is at a high level, it indicates that the memory 120 is in the sleep state, and when the level signal of the control pin of the memory 120 is at a low level, it indicates that the memory 120 is in the non-sleep state.
In this embodiment, the non-sleep state may be any one of the operating state, the standby state, and the sleep state.
The bus signal is a bus signal of the memory boot system 100, and when the bus signal is at a high level, it indicates that the read/write operation performed by the memory controller 160 on the memory 120 is valid, and when the bus signal is at a low level, it indicates that the read/write operation performed by the memory controller 160 on the memory 120 is invalid.
Specifically, referring to fig. 3, the storage boot system 100 is powered on and booted at a point a, and the microcontroller 140 and the storage controller 160 are switched from the power-off state to the working state, that is, the microcontroller 140 and the storage controller 160 are switched from the power-off state to the non-sleep state, where the level signals of the control pins of the microcontroller 140 and the storage controller 160 are changed from the low level to the high level.
When the storage boot system 100 in the working state receives a sleep command sent by an external device at point B, the microcontroller 140 controls the storage controller 160 to configure the storage 120 according to the sleep command, so that the storage 120 enters a sleep state, at this time, a level signal of a control pin of the storage 120 changes from a low level to a high level, and at this time, the microcontroller 140 and the storage controller 160 do not yet enter the sleep state, so that the level signals of the control pins of the microcontroller 140 and the storage controller 160 are still at the high level.
At point C, the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 enter a sleep state and power down, and the level signals of the control pins of the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 change from high level to low level, at which time the memory booting system 100 enters the sleep state.
After the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 are woken up by the wake-up command sent by the external device at point D1, the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 enter the working state from the sleep state, and the level signals of the control pins of the microcontroller 140 and the memory controller 160 change from low level to high level.
At point D2, the memory controller 160 executes the information read command, and since the memory 120 is in the sleep state at this time, the read/write operation on the memory 120 is invalid, the memory controller 160 reads the startup information in the memory 120 in the sleep state, and when the read fails, changes the bus signal from high level to low level, and the bus signal changed to low level triggers the pre-wake-up module 162 in the memory controller 160 to wake up the memory 120.
At point E, the pre-wake-up module 162 completes waking up the memory 120, the memory 120 enters the working state from the sleep state, and the level signal of the control pin of the memory 120 changes from high level to low level.
At point F, the memory 120 enters the operating state from the sleep state, and the memory controller 160 changes the bus signal from the low level to the high level, so that the memory controller 160 can successfully read the boot information stored in the memory 120, and the microcontroller 140 can boot the memory 120, the microcontroller 140, and the memory controller 160 according to the boot information, so as to enable the memory boot system 100 to enter the operating state.
In summary, according to the storage boot system 100 and the method provided by the present invention, after the microcontroller 140 in the storage boot system 100 receives a wake-up command sent by an external device, is woken up, and sends an information reading command to the storage controller 160 after being woken up, the storage controller 160 is woken up when receiving the wake-up command sent by the external device, wakes up the memory 120 according to the received information reading command, and after the memory 120 is woken up, reads the boot information in the memory 120 and sends the boot information to the microcontroller 140, the microcontroller 140 completes its boot based on the boot information, and starts the memory 120 and the storage controller 160 based on the boot information to enable the storage boot system 100 to enter the working state, thereby solving the problem that after the memory 120 enters the non-wake-up state, the microcontroller 140 cannot acquire the startup information in the memory 120 in the non-awakened state, which results in a problem that the storage startup system 100 cannot enter the working state from the non-awakened state, thereby realizing smooth switching of the storage startup system 100 from the non-awakened state to the working state. Further, in the present invention, the microcontroller 140, the memory controller 160, and the memory 120 of the memory booting system 100 may all enter a sleep state, so as to reduce system power consumption and achieve the purpose of saving power consumption.
