According to the technical scheme, the host machine GPU driving information can be automatically identified, the corresponding driving files can be automatically installed, and the corresponding relation between the virtual GPU instance driving version information installed on each virtual machine and the GPU driving version information installed on the host machine can be automatically and continuously maintained, so that the investment of operation and maintenance labor cost and the lag of driving information communication are effectively avoided, and the service operation quality of the virtual machines is favorably improved.

Fig. 1 shows a flowchart of a driving data processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is applicable to a virtual machine, as shown in fig. 1, the driving data processing method includes the following steps S101 to S103:

in step S101, in response to the virtual GPU instance starting, a driver installation component is started;

in step S102, automatically acquiring, by the driver installation component, host GPU driver information corresponding to the virtual GPU instance from a preset driver information data source, where the host GPU driver information is written into the preset driver information data source by a host in a virtual GPU instance creation process;

in step S103, a GPU driver installation file corresponding to the host GPU driver information is obtained from a preset driver installation file data source through the driver installation component and installed.

As mentioned above, with the development of data technology, currently, mainstream GPU parallel computing services such as artificial intelligence and GPU (graphics processing unit) rendering are rapidly developing, and a scene requiring GPU is also becoming more and more extensive, and in a virtualized application scene, it is considered that some users do not need the whole GPU to perform computation, so in order to save GPU computing resources and achieve full utilization of the GPU, the total performance of the GPU is generally split, for example, the total performance of the GPU can be split into multiple virtual GPU instances such as 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/8, and then the multiple split virtual GPU instances are allocated to different virtual machines, where each virtual GPU instance has 1/n of the total performance of the GPU, and n is the number of the split virtual GPU instances. Because the GPU driver installed on the host needs to be continuously updated, but the virtual machine cannot actively acquire the driver version of the host, and the virtual GPU instance driver version information installed on the virtual machine also needs to maintain a corresponding relationship with the GPU driver version information installed on the host, otherwise, the problem of incompatibility of drivers of different versions will occur, in the prior art, the GPU driver version information installed on the current host is provided to each virtual GPU instance in a help document manner, so as to maintain the corresponding relationship between the virtual GPU instance driver version information installed on each virtual machine and the GPU driver version information installed on the host, as shown in fig. 2. The processing mode not only needs to increase the investment of operation and maintenance labor cost, but also brings the lag of driving information communication, and is not beneficial to improving the service operation quality of the virtual machine.

In view of the above problem, in this embodiment, a driving data processing method is provided, in which host GPU driving information that has been written into a preset driving information data source by a host in a virtual GPU instance creation process is automatically obtained, and a corresponding GPU driving installation file is obtained according to the obtained host GPU driving information for installation. According to the technical scheme, the host machine GPU driving information can be automatically identified, the corresponding driving files can be automatically installed, and the corresponding relation between the virtual GPU instance driving version information installed on each virtual machine and the GPU driving version information installed on the host machine can be automatically and continuously maintained, so that the investment of operation and maintenance labor cost and the lag of driving information communication are effectively avoided, and the service operation quality of the virtual machines is favorably improved.

In an embodiment of the present invention, as described above, the virtual GPU instance, also called vGPU instance, refers to an instance type obtained by 1/n slicing a physical GPU on a host, where n may be a natural number. The virtual GPU instance obtained after slicing can be allocated to virtual machines for use according to the actual application requirements of the virtual machines, each virtual machine can have one virtual GPU instance, and a plurality of virtual machines share the same physical GPU.

In an embodiment of the invention, the driver installation component is installed on a virtual machine using a virtual GPU instance. After obtaining the authorization permission for automatic processing of the drive data, for example, the virtual machine user selects an automatic installation drive, the drive installation component can automatically acquire the host GPU drive information corresponding to the used virtual GPU instance from the preset drive information data source, and automatically acquire and automatically install the GPU drive installation file corresponding to the host GPU drive information from the preset drive installation file data source. The preset driving information data source may be, for example, a PCI configuration space (peripheral component interconnect standard interface configuration space), and the host writes the current latest host GPU driving information into the unused, i.e., idle PCI configuration space in advance when creating the virtual GPU instance, so as to facilitate the virtual machine to obtain the host GPU driving information. The preset drive installation file data source refers to a preset file memory or a preset file server of the GPU drive installation file stored with different version information, and the drive installation component can acquire the GPU drive installation file corresponding to the GPU drive information of the host machine by means of communication with the preset file memory or the preset file server so as to install subsequent GPU drives.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the host GPU driving information at least includes host GPU identification information and host GPU driving version information. The identification information of the GPU of the host machine is used for identifying the GPU of the host machine distinctively so as to avoid the situation that the GPU of the host machine drives the version information to obtain errors.

As mentioned above, the virtual GPU instance obtained after slicing may be allocated to a virtual machine for use according to the actual application requirement of the virtual machine, each virtual machine may have one virtual GPU instance, and a plurality of virtual machines share the same physical GPU, so when a plurality of virtual machines sharing the same physical GPU are provided, the plurality of virtual machines may all communicate with the corresponding host, the preset drive information data source, and the preset drive installation file data source to obtain the corresponding host GPU drive information and the corresponding GPU drive installation file.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the step S101, that is, the step of starting the driver installation component in response to the virtual GPU instance starting, may be implemented as:

In order to protect the legitimate rights of the user or other virtual machine users, in this embodiment, only after receiving the authorization information for automatically processing the driver data sent or confirmed by the user or other virtual machine users, the driver installation component is started when the virtual GPU instance is started, so as to execute the subsequent automatic installation process of the driver, that is, to complete the automatic acquisition of the driver information, the automatic acquisition of the driver installation file, and the automatic installation.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the step S102, namely, the step of automatically obtaining, by the driver installation component, the host GPU driver information corresponding to the virtual GPU instance from a preset driver information data source, may be implemented as:

As mentioned above, the identification information of the host GPU is used to perform distinctive identification on the host GPU, so in order to avoid the situation that the acquisition of the host GPU driving version information is incorrect, in this embodiment, the correct host GPU driving information corresponding to the virtual GPU instance is acquired by comparing the identification information of the host GPU. Specifically, first, the driver installation component acquires the host GPU identification information of the virtual GPU instance; and then, reading the host machine GPU driving information with the host machine GPU identification information from the preset driving information data source through the driving installation component.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the step S103 of obtaining, by the driver installation component, a GPU driver installation file corresponding to the host GPU driver information from a preset driver installation file data source and installing the GPU driver installation file may be implemented as:

and installing the GPU driver installation file.

In order to obtain a correct GPU driver installation file corresponding to the host GPU driver version information, in this embodiment, first, the obtained host GPU driver information is analyzed by the driver installation component to obtain the host GPU driver version information; then, acquiring a GPU drive installation file corresponding to the host GPU drive version information from a preset drive installation file data source through the drive installation component according to the host GPU drive version information; and finally, installing the GPU drive installation file.

As mentioned above, the preset driver installation file data source refers to a preset file memory or a preset file server storing GPU driver installation files with different version information. In an embodiment of the present invention, the preset driver installation file data source may be, for example, a file storage such as an OSS server (object storage server) or a file server, and the GPU driver installation files with different version information are stored thereon, so as to be obtained by a GPU driver installation file demander with different version information.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the method further comprises the steps of:

As mentioned above, the GPU driver installed on the host needs to be continuously updated, and the virtual GPU instance driver version information installed on the virtual machine needs to keep a corresponding relationship with the GPU driver version information installed on the host, otherwise, the problem of driver incompatibility of different versions will occur, and therefore, in this embodiment, the GPU driver information of the host and the GPU driver installation file need to be updated in real time. Specifically, when the virtual machine receives a host GPU drive information update notification message sent by the host, or the drive installation component periodically detects information update on the preset drive information data source, and detects that there is update of the host GPU drive information stored in the preset drive information data source, the drive installation component may initiate an update drive information automatic acquisition operation, that is, automatically acquire the update host GPU drive information corresponding to the virtual GPU instance from the preset drive information data source, and then acquire a new GPU drive installation file corresponding to the update host GPU drive information from the preset drive installation file data source to perform update installation. In order to avoid the situation that the acquisition of the host GPU drive version information is wrong, the host GPU drive information updating notification message at least comprises host GPU identification information.

and triggering preset exception handling when the exception information is detected.

In an actual application process, the virtual machine may encounter abnormal situations that no response or corresponding action occurs after the virtual GPU instance is started, the GPU driver installation file downloaded from the preset driver installation file data source cannot be normally installed or cannot be normally used after installation, and the like, and at this time, if the above abnormal information is detected, a preset abnormal processing flow may be triggered, where the preset abnormal processing may be, for example, reporting specific abnormal information to preset control resources such as preset control personnel and preset control equipment, so that the preset control resources perform corresponding processing according to the reported abnormal information.

Fig. 3 shows a flowchart of a driving data processing method according to another embodiment of the present invention, which is applicable to a host, as shown in fig. 3, the driving data processing method includes the following steps S301 to S303:

in step S301, in response to receiving the drive data automatic processing authorization information, starting the analog processor;

in step S302, in a virtual GPU instance creation process, host GPU driving information corresponding to the virtual GPU instance is obtained, where the host GPU driving information at least includes host GPU identification information and host GPU driving version information;

in step S303, the host GPU driving information corresponding to the virtual GPU instance is sent to the simulation processor, so that the simulation processor writes the host GPU driving information into a preset driving information data source.

As mentioned above, with the development of data technologies, mainstream GPU parallel computing services such as artificial intelligence and GPU (graphics processing unit) rendering are rapidly developed, and a scenario requiring GPU usage is also more and more extensive, and in a virtualized application scenario, it is considered that some users do not need to perform computation by the whole GPU, so, in order to save GPU computational power resources and achieve full utilization of the GPU, the total performance of the GPU is usually fragmented, for example, the total performance of the GPU can be split into a plurality of virtual GPU instances such as 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/8, and then the plurality of split virtual GPU instances are allocated to different virtual machines, where each virtual GPU instance has 1/n of the total performance of the GPU, and n is the number of fragments. Since the GPU driver installed on the host needs to be continuously updated, but the virtual machine cannot actively acquire the driver version of the host, and the virtual GPU instance driver version information installed on the virtual machine needs to maintain a corresponding relationship with the GPU driver version information installed on the host, otherwise, a problem of driver incompatibility of different versions will occur, in the prior art, the GPU driver version information installed on the current host is generally provided to each virtual GPU instance in a help document manner, so as to maintain a corresponding relationship between the virtual GPU instance driver version information installed on each virtual machine and the GPU driver version information installed on the host, as shown in fig. 2. The processing mode not only needs to increase the investment of operation and maintenance labor cost, but also brings the lag of driving information communication, and is not beneficial to improving the service operation quality of the virtual machine.

Fig. 7 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a drive data processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, which may be implemented as a part or all of an electronic device, which may be implemented as a virtual machine, by software, hardware, or a combination of both. As shown in fig. 7, the driving data processing apparatus includes:

the installation module 703 is configured to obtain, through the driver installation component, a GPU driver installation file corresponding to the host GPU driver information from a preset driver installation file data source and install the GPU driver installation file.

As mentioned above, with the development of data technology, currently, mainstream GPU parallel computing services such as artificial intelligence and GPU (graphics processing unit) rendering are rapidly developing, and a scene requiring GPU is also becoming more and more extensive, and in a virtualized application scene, it is considered that some users do not need the whole GPU to perform computation, so in order to save GPU computing resources and achieve full utilization of the GPU, the total performance of the GPU is generally split, for example, the total performance of the GPU can be split into multiple virtual GPU instances such as 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/8, and then the multiple split virtual GPU instances are allocated to different virtual machines, where each virtual GPU instance has 1/n of the total performance of the GPU, and n is the number of the split virtual GPU instances. Because the GPU driver installed on the host needs to be continuously updated, but the virtual machine cannot actively acquire the driver version of the host, and the virtual GPU instance driver version information installed on the virtual machine also needs to maintain a corresponding relationship with the GPU driver version information installed on the host, otherwise, the problem of incompatibility of drivers of different versions will occur, in the prior art, the GPU driver version information installed on the current host is provided to the virtual machine in a help document manner, so as to maintain the corresponding relationship between the virtual GPU instance driver version information installed on each virtual machine and the GPU driver version information installed on the host, as shown in fig. 2. The processing mode not only needs to increase the investment of operation and maintenance labor cost, but also brings the lag of driving information communication, and is not beneficial to improving the service operation quality of the virtual machine.
