It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present disclosure may be practiced without some of these specific details. In some instances, methods, means, elements and circuits that are well known to those skilled in the art have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the present disclosure.
In the related art, the hardware in the adapter is usually managed by an Option ROM (Option ROM, optionally implemented read only memory) firmware in the adapter, which is prone to the following problems: 1. the method is limited in that the OpROM can only be loaded at a fixed position in the flash memory of the adapter, so the occupied size of the OpROM directly influences the occupied size of the flash memory, and the flash memory directly influences the performance of the adapter, so the method is not beneficial to improving the performance of the adapter. 2. And a developer can configure hardware information in the OpROM directly, so that the visualization degree is poor. 3. This type of approach has limited capability for hardware management, for example: when a PCIE interface of hardware is enumerated and other operations sensitive to relevant configuration parameters before OpROM firmware is executed, configuration cannot be completed normally.
In view of this, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a hardware management method, which is applied to an adapter, where the hardware management method includes: acquiring hardware information corresponding to the hardware in the flash memory through the control system, and then configuring a register in the hardware through the control system according to the hardware information. The configuration parameters of the hardware in the embodiment of the disclosure are not stored in the OpROM, but are directly stored in the flash memory through the hardware information, so that the size of the flash memory occupied by the OpROM can be saved. And because the storage position of the OpROM in the flash memory is fixed, the hardware information can be stored in the address space in the flash memory before the OpROM, so that the space occupied by the flash memory in an invalid manner is reduced, the performance of each firmware operated in the flash memory is improved, and the overall performance of the adapter is favorably improved.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a management method of hardware according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 1, the management method is applied to an adapter, where the adapter includes a control system, a flash memory, and configurable hardware, and the adapter may be a network adapter, a sound adapter, a display adapter, and the like, and the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited herein. The hardware may be any sub-component of the adapter, such as: the chip, the memory, the signal converter, etc. of the adapter are not described herein again. The management method comprises the following steps:
and S100, acquiring corresponding hardware information of the hardware in the flash memory through the control system. Wherein the hardware information is used to determine configuration parameters of registers in the hardware. For example, the control System may be firmware such as BISO (Basic Input Output System) that can allocate information resources at the adapter level. For example: if the adapter is a display adapter, the control system may be a VBIOS (VIDEO BIOS, VIDEO card BIOS), etc. For example, the hardware information may be represented as a hardware information table and stored in the flash memory. Illustratively, the hardware information may include a storage location of the configuration parameter of the register in the flash memory, a unique identification number for distinguishing different hardware, a size of the configuration parameter, and the like, and a developer may set the configuration parameter according to actual requirements, and the adapter may access the configuration parameter of the register according to the hardware information.
And S200, configuring a register in the hardware according to the hardware information through the control system. For example, the control system may configure the configuration parameters of the registers in the hardware according to the configuration parameters of the registers stored in the hardware information. For example: the configuration parameters may include operating parameters (e.g., read, write), register stored values, etc. for the operating state of the registers. The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the specific configuration of the configuration parameters, the configuration parameters may include a register parameter for which any register can be configured, and a developer may set the configuration of the configuration parameters by himself according to an actual application scenario. According to the hardware management method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, since the configuration information of the hardware is not stored in the OpROM, but is directly stored in the flash memory through the hardware information, the size of the flash memory occupied by the OpROM can be saved. And because the storage position of the OpROM in the flash memory is fixed, the hardware information can be stored in the address space in the flash memory before the OpROM, so that the space occupied by the flash memory in an invalid manner is reduced, the performance of each firmware operated in the flash memory is improved, and the overall performance of the adapter is favorably improved. In addition, the embodiment of the disclosure improves the utilization rate of the flash memory, thereby being beneficial to reducing the hardware cost of the flash memory in the adapter.
In a possible implementation, the adapter further includes a system management module, where the system management module is configured to implement main management on the adapter, for example: the System management module may be configured to start a Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) of the adapter, enable an OpROM, initialize adapter resources, and so on. On this basis, the management method may further include: and acquiring hardware information corresponding to the hardware in the flash memory through the system management module. Wherein the hardware information is further used to determine configuration parameters of a control module in the hardware. Illustratively, the hardware may be configured with a control module to implement the logic flow control of the hardware. And then configuring a control module in the hardware through the system management module according to the hardware information. For example: the configuration parameters of the control module can be used to indicate whether the hardware multiplexes pins, whether the efuse (a kind of one-time programmable memory) of the hardware is programmed, and the like. The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the specific configuration of the configuration parameters, and the configuration parameters may include any control module parameter that the control module may be configured to. According to the hardware management method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, the hardware information can be accessed through the system management module, so that the hardware is not only suitable for simple read-write operation, but also suitable for code logic flow control. In addition, operations sensitive to some configuration parameters of hardware in the related art can also be executed. Here, for example, enumeration operation is performed on a PCIE interface, since a code logic flow executed in the RTOS is executed before enumeration is performed on the PCIE interface, parameters affecting enumeration of the PCIE interface can be set by the RTOS based on the configuration parameters of the control module. In other words, the management method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure has a stronger capability of managing hardware and more configurable parameters of the hardware.
Referring to fig. 2 in conjunction with a practical application scenario, fig. 2 is a schematic reference diagram illustrating a hardware management method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Taking the display adapter as an example, other types of adapters may perform corresponding adaptation settings according to their own control systems and system management modules. As shown in fig. 2, the display adapter may include a GPU system management unit (i.e., a system management module of the display adapter) and a VBIOS (i.e., a control system of the display adapter), which may interact based on PCIe, peripheral Component Interconnect express, a high speed serial computer expansion bus standard. After the display adapter is powered on, the GPU system management unit starts the GPU system to manage the RTOS (i.e. the RTOS of the display adapter), and initializes the GPU resources (i.e. the system resources of the display adapter). And then the VBIOS and the GPU system management unit construct an IPC (Inter-Process Communication) channel, wherein the IPC channel is used for information interaction between the VBIOS and the GPU system management unit. The VBIOS sends an access request of the entry table (i.e., the above-mentioned hardware information) through the IPC channel. And the GPU system management unit acquires the entry table from the flash memory after receiving the access request of the entry table and sends the entry table to the VBIOS. The VBIOS configures the register of the hardware by analyzing the configuration parameter of the register recorded in the entry table. And the GPU system management unit configures the control module of the hardware by analyzing the configuration parameters of the control module in the entry table. And finally completing the hardware configuration of the display adapter.
In a possible implementation, the management method may further include: and receiving the hardware information sent by the host, and storing the hardware information into a flash memory of the adapter. The host is coupled to the adapter to configure configuration parameters of registers of the adapter and/or configuration parameters of the control module. The host may be any electronic device with an adapter interface, and details of the embodiments of the disclosure are not described herein.
In a possible implementation, the management method may further include: and receiving hardware information corresponding to the hardware to be operated, which is sent by a host, and updating the hardware information of the hardware to be operated in the flash memory according to the hardware information corresponding to the hardware to be operated. In an example, the hardware information of each hardware of the adapter may be integrated in a binary file, that is, the hardware information corresponding to the hardware to be operated may include: the adapter receives the hardware information of the hardware to be operated and the hardware information of the hardware not to be operated (or the hardware information of all the hardware), and then the adapter can directly replace all the hardware information in the flash memory with the hardware information of the hardware to be operated. In an example, the host may also send only the hardware information of the hardware to be operated as the hardware information corresponding to the hardware to be operated, and the adapter may query the hardware information of the hardware to be operated in the flash memory according to the unique identifier in the hardware information, and replace only the hardware information of the hardware to be operated. The specific updating manner of the hardware information is not limited in this disclosure, and may be set by a developer according to an actual situation. The management method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can respond to the modification of the hardware information by the host, perform sustainable update configuration, and improve the update flexibility and operation visibility of the hardware information.
The embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a hardware management method, which is applied to a host, where the host may be any electronic device with an adapter interface and an arithmetic function, and an adapter may be connected to the host through the adapter interface, a structure of the electronic device will be described in detail later, and with reference to fig. 3, fig. 3 shows a flowchart of a hardware management method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 3, the hardware management method includes:
step S400, obtaining configuration information corresponding to the hardware in the adapter. The configuration information is used for storing configuration information of a register in the hardware and/or configuration information of a control module. For example, the configuration information may be visible to a developer or a user side, that is, may be processed visually, and may be presented in a form of a table. The specific configuration of the configuration information, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure, may be flexibly determined by a developer according to an actual application scenario. In an example, the configuration information may further include remarks, performance information of the adapter, information of various interfaces of the adapter, register information, supported operating environments, and the like, so as to be read by developers, and facilitate cooperative maintenance of software and hardware.
And step S500, carrying out binary conversion on the configuration information corresponding to the hardware. Illustratively, the configuration information may be converted into a binary format by conversion software in the related art. In one example, only a portion of the fields in the configuration information may be binary converted. For example: if the configuration information includes remarks, which only assist developers and do not assist adapters, only the fields in the configuration information that are recognizable by the adapters or have assist functions can be binary-converted, so as to save the space finally occupied in the flash memory. In one example, the fields of the configuration information may include: the size of the configuration parameter, the value of the configuration parameter, the unique identifier, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited herein.
Step S600, generating a configuration file corresponding to the hardware according to the configuration information after binary conversion. Illustratively, the format of the configuration file can be flexibly selected, and the hardware information generated based on the configuration file can be recognized by the adapter. For example: the configuration file may be a JSON file. The JSON file may record a location in the flash memory where each configuration information is stored, so that the adapter saves the configuration information based on the location.
Step S700, generating hardware information corresponding to the hardware according to the configuration file, and sending the hardware information corresponding to the hardware to an adapter. Wherein the hardware information is used to determine configuration parameters of registers in the hardware and/or configuration parameters of control modules in the hardware. For example, the configuration file may be sent to the adapter after being subjected to the packing processing in the related art, which is not described herein again in the embodiments of the present disclosure. The management method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can flexibly and widely perform centralized management on the configuration parameters in the adapter through the configuration information. In addition, the configuration file has visibility of a user side and a development side, so that the configuration file is beneficial to improving the adaptability of software in the host and hardware in the adapter, in other words, the configuration file is beneficial to the cooperative maintenance of the software and the hardware between the host and the adapter.
In a possible implementation, the management method further includes: and responding to modification of configuration information corresponding to the hardware to be operated, and performing binary conversion on the modified configuration information. And updating the configuration file according to the binary-converted and modified configuration information. And generating hardware information corresponding to the hardware to be operated according to the updated configuration file, and sending the hardware information corresponding to the hardware to be operated to the adapter. In combination with the actual application scenario, if a developer finds that the working condition of the hardware is abnormal or needs to reconfigure the hardware information of the hardware for the purpose of matching with software, the developer can directly modify the configuration information of the hardware to be operated. Finally, the adapter makes corresponding configuration change on the hardware to be operated. In combination with the actual application scenario of the user side, a visual adapter maintenance software may be stored on the host, and the maintenance software may acquire Management information (for example, board level information of the adapter) of each hardware level of the adapter through an Interface (for example, advanced Configuration and Power Management Interface) of the adapter, so that the user may manage the adapter.
