Description

Hardware resource sharing method for multiprocessor system
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of integrated circuits, and particularly relates to a hardware resource sharing method for a multiprocessor system.
Background
With the development of integrated circuit technology and the continuous expansion of function scale, the integration level and complexity of chip design are higher and higher. The large-scale high-integration chip is often internally provided with a plurality of processors, so that a multi-processor system is formed, and each system is independent and mutually associated. Generally, the processors themselves are relatively independent, and most of the hardware resources are related to each other or shared by multiple processors. The hardware resources comprise an SRAM corresponding to a certain section of address space, a DDR memory space corresponding to a certain section of address space, and different peripherals such as UART, SPI, IIC and the like. These hardware resources need to be called by multiple processor systems.
In a multi-processor environment, each processor may use a resource (peripheral or memory) at times. The processor can judge the occupation condition of the equipment by reading the zone bit (or IDLE and BUSY states) of the resource; if the flag bit is read, the bus is judged to be BUSY, the resource is indicated to be unavailable, and then reading is carried out; if the flag bit is read, the IDLE is judged, and then the flag bit is operated to enable the state of the resource to be BUSY; then, there is a problem here: in the case where a plurality of processors operate this flag bit at the same time, the state value of the flag bit is unreliable; the time is needed for the state value of the state bit to return to the processor, and the time is also needed for the state value of the state bit to change to BUSY; during this time period, if another processor accesses the flag register, the value it returns is incorrect; therefore, this situation requires additional attention from the researcher.
The hardware resource sharing scheduling schemes for multiprocessor systems today are generally divided into two types: the first is a physically isolated deployment and the second is a broadcast deployment. In the first scheme, all hardware resources are generally allocated in advance, and scheduling is directly performed according to the allocated scheme; for example, the first processor system uses the first path of UART, the second processor system uses the second path of UART, and so on; and the hardware resources between the various processor systems are dedicated and not shared. In the second scheme, when a certain processor system needs to use a certain hardware resource, the processor system needs to notify other systems of a message that the certain hardware resource needs to be used by the processor system in a broadcast mode, and judges whether the certain hardware resource can be used or not according to feedback; for example, the first path SPI needs to be used by the first processor system, and the first processor system first sends out a broadcast message to be received by all other processors; broadcast messages are typically sent using bus interconnect or interrupt lines; at this time, if no other processor system uses the first path of SPI, a specific message is fed back to the first processor system, and then the first processor system starts to use and operate the first path of SPI; however, if some of the other processor systems is using the path of SPI, a specific message is fed back to let the processor system know that the processor system needs to wait for a specific period of time before broadcasting using the first path of SPI is initiated until all the feedback indicates that the first path of SPI device is idle, and then the first path of processor system starts using the first path of SPI.
Aiming at two methods in the prior art, although the first method is the simplest and most effective use method, the system of the first method is lack of flexibility and waste of hardware resources can be caused; the first approach is clearly ineffective, particularly in some special-purpose systems, when multiple processor systems must use the same hardware resources. The second method realizes hardware resource sharing of the multiprocessor system, but the operation is extremely complex, and a broadcast and feedback protocol needs to be designed among the multiprocessor systems; especially when the number of processor systems is large, the protocol implementation can be very complex.

The special register designed by the invention can very conveniently and quickly solve the problem of reliability of the resource occupation state: when the processor tries to use a certain resource (peripheral or memory), the register address for marking the resource occupation state is accessed, namely the processor has an action of reading the register, the action does not simply make the processor know the occupation state of the resource, and the action also triggers the automatic jump from 0 to 1 of the register (if the current state is 0); even if the current processor does not operate the register immediately (and does not need) and the read operation of other processors can obtain the reliable state for representing the resource occupation condition, and the misjudgment can not be carried out.
In cooperation with the special register designed by the invention, the invention also provides a use rule followed by processor software: "read 0 used, write 1 released"; therefore, under the multi-processor environment, the processor software does not need a handshake negotiation mechanism any more, and the sharing of hardware resources can be conveniently and reliably realized.
