In order to provide a better understanding of the present application, those skilled in the art will now make further details of the present application with reference to the drawings and detailed description. It will be apparent that the described embodiments are only some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments, which can be made by one of ordinary skill in the art without undue burden from the present disclosure, are within the scope of the present disclosure.
Example 1
The flash chip 200 generally has various operation modes, such as a 1/4bit command mode (1/4 bit command mode), a 3/4 byte ADDR mode (3/4 byte address mode), performance enhance mode (performance enhancing module)/continue read mode (continuous read mode), which will be hereinafter referred to as a mode one, a mode two, a mode three and a mode four. Normally, the BMC host chip 100 interacts with the flash chip 200 in one of the modes, e.g., the BMC host chip 100 interacts with the flash chip 200 in mode one. After the BMC main chip 100 and the flash chip 200 are powered up for the first time, the BMC main chip 100 and the flash chip 200 interact in one of the modes by default, for example, interact in the third mode by default. In the interaction process, possibly due to performance requirements and the like, the BMC master chip 100 may change the interaction mode, for example, change the operation state to the mode four to interact with the flash, and then the flash chip 200 may also change to the mode four to operate, so as to ensure that the BMC master chip 100 and the flash chip 200 can interact normally. After the interaction mode is changed, if the BMC master chip 100 is restarted, the running state of the BMC master chip 100 is reset to the default mode three interaction mode, and at this time, the flash chip 200 is still in the mode four running mode, and the two modes are inconsistent, so that normal interaction cannot be performed, and the BMC image file in the flash chip 200 is damaged.
Therefore, in the first embodiment, a method for preventing the BMC image file from being damaged is provided, and the flash chip 200 is actively adjusted to the operation mode consistent with the BMC master chip 100 when restarting.
As shown in fig. 1, the method for preventing the BMC image file from being damaged in the first embodiment specifically includes the following steps:
s101, after restarting the BMC master chip 100, the BMC master chip 100 sends operation mode information to the flash chip 200;
s102, the flash chip 200 adjusts the operation mode according to the received operation mode information.
According to the method, after the BMC master chip 100 is restarted, the operation mode information is actively sent to the flash chip 200, the flash chip 200 is informed of the operation mode required by the BMC master chip 100, the flash chip 200 adjusts the operation mode according to the received operation mode information, the adjusted operation mode is guaranteed to be the operation mode required by the BMC master chip 100, then the BMC master chip 100 and the flash chip 200 interact normally through the operation mode, the problem that the operation mode of the BMC master chip 100 is inconsistent with the operation mode of the flash chip 200 cannot occur, and therefore the problem that BMC mirror files in the flash chip 200 are damaged is avoided, the problem that the BMC mirror files are damaged is fundamentally solved, server faults are avoided, stable operation of a server is guaranteed, and operation efficiency is improved.
Example two
In order to facilitate the detailed understanding of the present invention, a method for preventing the BMC image file from being damaged is further described below based on the principles of the present invention.
Specifically, a method for preventing the BMC image file from being damaged in the second embodiment includes the following steps.
S201, after the BMC master chip 100 is restarted, the BMC master chip 100 sends operation mode information to the flash chip 200.
Considering that the BMC main chip 100 and the flash chip 200 are connected through an SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface ) bus, in this step, the BMC main chip 100 sends operation mode information to the flash chip 200, specifically:
the BMC host chip 100 transmits operation mode information to the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus.
That is, after the BMC main chip 100 is restarted, it communicates with the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus first, and the operation mode (for example, mode three) required by the BMC main chip 100 at this time is sent to the flash chip 200, so that the flash chip 200 adjusts its own operation mode. The operation mode required by the BMC host chip 100 refers to an operation state in which the operation state of the BMC host chip 100 is the operation state in which the operation mode interacts, for example, the BMC host chip 100 defaults to interact with the flash chip 200 in mode three.
The operation mode of the flash chip 200 corresponds to the configuration information in the register thereof, and the flash chip 200 adjusts the operation mode according to the configuration information in the register thereof, for example, four operation modes of the flash chip 200 respectively correspond to the configuration information in the register thereof as 00, 01, 10 and 11.
Based on this, the BMC master chip 100 sends operation mode information to the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus, specifically:
the BMC host chip 100 transmits register configuration information to the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus.
That is, after the BMC master chip 100 is restarted, the BMC master chip 100 sends the register configuration information to the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus, and reconfigures the register configuration in the flash chip 200. For example, if the default operation mode after the restart of the BMC master chip 100 is mode three, after the restart of the BMC master chip 100, the configuration information of the register sent by the BMC master chip 100 to the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus is to change the configuration in the register to mode 10.
S202, the flash chip 200 adjusts the operation mode according to the received operation mode information.
After restarting the BMC master chip 100, the BMC master chip 100 sends register configuration information to the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus, the register configuration in the flash chip 200 is reconfigured, and the flash chip 200 adjusts the operation mode according to the received operation mode information, specifically, adjusts the operation mode according to the register configuration information. The flash chip 200 needs to timely determine whether the configuration information of the register is reconfigured, and when in implementation, the method comprises the following steps:
in step one, the flash chip 200 detects whether the register configuration information is reconfigured in real time.
It should be noted that, a time interval for the flash chip 200 to monitor the register configuration information, for example, detection once for 10 seconds or detection once for 1 minute, may be set, and the flash chip 200 implements the monitor register according to the set time interval to detect whether the register configuration information is reconfigured.
And step two, if the configuration is reconfigured, the operation mode is adjusted according to the new configuration information.
When the configuration information of the register is reconfigured, the flash chip 200 adjusts the operation mode according to the new configuration information of the register. For example, if the configuration information of the register is configured to be 10, the flash chip 200 adjusts its operation mode to be mode three, so as to ensure that the operation mode of the flash chip 200 is consistent with the operation mode of the BMC main chip 100, so that the two modes can interact normally, and damage to the BMC image file in the flash chip 200 is avoided.
It should be noted that, the flash chip 200 may determine whether the new configuration information is consistent with the previous configuration information (i.e. before the BMC main chip 100 is restarted), if so, the flash chip 200 does not operate any more, and if not, the operation mode is adjusted according to the new configuration information. Of course, the flash chip 200 may not determine whether the new configuration information is consistent with the previous configuration information, and only after the register configuration information is reconfigured, the operation mode may be readjusted according to the new configuration information.
According to the method, after the BMC master chip 100 is restarted, the operation mode information is actively sent to the flash chip 200, the flash chip 200 is informed of the operation mode required by the BMC master chip 100, the flash chip 200 adjusts the operation mode according to the received operation mode information, the adjusted operation mode is guaranteed to be the operation mode required by the BMC master chip 100, then the BMC master chip 100 and the flash chip 200 interact normally through the operation mode, the problem that the operation mode of the BMC master chip 100 is inconsistent with the operation mode of the flash chip 200 cannot occur, and therefore the problem that BMC mirror files in the flash chip 200 are damaged is avoided, the problem that the BMC mirror files are damaged is fundamentally solved, server faults are avoided, stable operation of a server is guaranteed, and operation efficiency is improved.

The operation mode of the flash chip 200 corresponds to the configuration information in the register thereof, and the flash chip 200 adjusts the operation mode according to the configuration information in the register thereof, for example, four operation modes of the flash chip 200 respectively correspond to the configuration information in the register thereof as 00, 01, 10 and 11.
Based on this, the BMC master chip 100 sends operation mode information to the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus, specifically:
the BMC host chip 100 transmits register configuration information to the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus.
That is, after the BMC master chip 100 is restarted, the BMC master chip 100 sends the register configuration information to the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus, and reconfigures the register configuration in the flash chip 200. For example, if the default operation mode after the restart of the BMC master chip 100 is mode three, after the restart of the BMC master chip 100, the configuration information of the register sent by the BMC master chip 100 to the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus is to change the configuration in the register to mode 10.
And a second module, an operation module adjusting module 201: and the flash chip 200 is operated, and the operation mode is adjusted according to the received operation mode information.
After restarting the BMC master chip 100, the BMC master chip 100 sends register configuration information to the flash chip 200 through the SPI bus, the register configuration in the flash chip 200 is reconfigured, and the flash chip 200 adjusts the operation mode according to the received operation mode information, specifically, adjusts the operation mode according to the register configuration information. The flash chip 200 needs to timely determine whether the configuration information of the register is reconfigured, and when the flash chip is implemented, the functional module executes the following steps:
in step one, the flash chip 200 detects whether the register configuration information is reconfigured in real time.
It should be noted that, a time interval for the flash chip 200 to monitor the register configuration information, for example, detection once for 10 seconds or detection once for 1 minute, may be set, and the flash chip 200 implements the monitor register according to the set time interval to detect whether the register configuration information is reconfigured.
And step two, if the configuration is reconfigured, the operation mode is adjusted according to the new configuration information.
When the configuration information of the register is reconfigured, the flash chip 200 adjusts the operation mode according to the new configuration information of the register. For example, if the configuration information of the register is configured to be 10, the flash chip 200 adjusts its operation mode to be mode three, so as to ensure that the operation mode of the flash chip 200 is consistent with the operation mode of the BMC main chip 100, so that the two modes can interact normally, and damage to the BMC image file in the flash chip 200 is avoided.
It should be noted that, the flash chip 200 may determine whether the new configuration information is consistent with the previous configuration information (i.e. before the BMC main chip 100 is restarted), if so, the flash chip 200 does not operate any more, and if not, the operation mode is adjusted according to the new configuration information. Of course, the flash chip 200 may not determine whether the new configuration information is consistent with the previous configuration information, and only after the register configuration information is reconfigured, the operation mode may be readjusted according to the new configuration information.
After the BMC master chip 100 of the device is restarted, the operation mode information is actively sent to the flash chip 200, the flash chip 200 is informed of the operation mode required by the BMC master chip 100, the flash chip 200 adjusts the operation mode according to the received operation mode information, the adjusted operation mode is ensured to be the operation mode required by the BMC master chip 100, then the BMC master chip 100 and the flash chip 200 interact normally through the operation mode, the problem that the operation mode of the BMC master chip 100 is inconsistent with the operation mode of the flash chip is avoided, and therefore the problem that BMC mirror files in the flash chip 200 are damaged is avoided, the problem of damage to the BMC mirror files is fundamentally solved, server faults are avoided, stable operation of a server is ensured, and the operation efficiency is improved.
