Detailed Description
The following description of the embodiments of the present application will be made clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which it is apparent that the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the application without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the application.
The embodiment of the application provides a processing method and electronic equipment, which are used for improving the replacement efficiency of a hardware module in the electronic equipment and simplifying the replacement operation of a user. The processing method provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to electronic equipment, namely the electronic equipment provided by the embodiment of the application, and the electronic equipment can be particularly but not limited to electronic equipment such as a personal computer or a server.
Referring to fig. 1, a schematic flow chart of a processing method according to an embodiment of the present application is provided, where the processing method at least includes:
Step 101, determining whether the second firmware and the first firmware are in the same version or not based on firmware information of the second firmware in a second hardware module installed on the electronic device and firmware information of the first firmware stored in a corresponding storage position of the electronic device in advance; the first firmware is firmware of a first hardware module, and the installation position of the second hardware module is a hardware position set aside by removing the first hardware module from the electronic device.
The first hardware module and the second hardware module are respectively hardware modules written with firmware, and the first hardware module and the second hardware module are the same hardware module, and can be but not limited to the same hardware module with firmware such as a network card or HBA (Host Bus Adapter) card, and the first hardware module and the second hardware module have a replaceable/replaceable relationship, and can be used for replacing/replacing the first hardware module in the electronic device.
When there is a need to replace a first hardware module in an electronic device with a second hardware module, replacing the first hardware module in the electronic device with the second hardware module may be accomplished by removing the first hardware module from the hardware location (mounting location) where it is located in the electronic device, and mounting the second electronic device to that location. For example, assuming that the first hardware module is a failed network card (a network card with a failure), and the second hardware module is a non-failed network card, the failed network card can be removed from a network card slot of an electronic device such as a personal computer or a server, and the non-failed network card is inserted into the network card slot, so that the replacement of the failed network card is realized, and the electronic device can be ensured to operate normally.
In the embodiment of the application, the firmware information of the first firmware of the first hardware module is stored in the corresponding storage position of the electronic equipment in advance. The corresponding storage location of the electronic device may be a corresponding storage location provided by a storage medium (such as a magnetic disk) of the electronic device itself, or may be a corresponding storage location provided by an external device of the electronic device, which is not limited and may depend on actual requirements. The external device of the electronic device may be a storage medium or other electronic devices with storage medium connected by a wired/wireless connection method, for example, a mobile hard disk or a notebook computer connected by a wired/wireless connection method.
The firmware information of the first firmware stored in the corresponding storage location of the electronic device may include, but is not limited to, firmware program (computer program code) of the first firmware, and information such as version number and/or release date of the first firmware.
Optionally, in the boot self-test stage of the electronic device, for example, in a BIOS POST (BIOS self-test) stage, the embodiment of the present application determines whether the second firmware of the second hardware module is the same version as the first firmware of the first hardware module by removing the first hardware module from the corresponding hardware position of the electronic device and installing the second hardware module in the hardware position. BIOS is Basic Input Output System abbreviations and Chinese names are basic input output system.
The second version of the second firmware may be determined based on the firmware information of the second firmware, the first version of the first firmware may be determined based on the firmware information of the first firmware stored in the corresponding storage location, and whether the second version is the same as the first version may be determined, if so, the second firmware of the second hardware module and the first firmware of the first hardware module are the same version, otherwise, the second firmware of the second hardware module and the first firmware of the first hardware module are different versions.
The firmware information of the second firmware may include, but is not limited to, a firmware program (computer program code) of the second firmware, and information such as a version number and/or release date of the second firmware.
In determining the version of the first firmware/second firmware based on the firmware information of the first firmware/second firmware, in an alternative embodiment, the version number of the first firmware/second firmware may be directly read, and the version of the first firmware/second firmware may be determined according to the corresponding version number. However, in other embodiments, the version of the first firmware/second firmware may be identified based on the release date of the first firmware/second firmware, the firmware program, or the like, and if the version number is not included in the firmware information of the first firmware/second firmware, the version of the first firmware/second firmware may be identified based on the release date included.
Step 102, if the second firmware and the first firmware are different versions, the first firmware is obtained from the corresponding storage location of the electronic device, and the second firmware in the second hardware module is updated to the first firmware.
If it is determined that the second firmware in the second hardware module and the first firmware in the first hardware module are different versions, the first firmware can be read from a storage position where the first firmware is located, specifically, a firmware program of the first firmware can be read, the second firmware in the second hardware module is updated based on the read data, and finally, the firmware in the second hardware module is updated to be the first firmware.
It is easy to understand that if it is determined that the second firmware in the second hardware module is the same version as the first firmware in the first hardware module, it is not necessary to perform a firmware update process for the second firmware in the second hardware module.
In a test scenario or a user use scenario, related personnel such as a tester or a user generally update firmware in a hardware module of an electronic device to a latest version or a version which is favored/used by the user based on actual requirements, when the hardware module in the electronic device is replaced due to the phenomena of faults, damages and the like of the hardware module, the problem that the replaced firmware of the new hardware module is different from the version of the firmware in the replaced hardware module often occurs, so that related personnel such as the tester or the user needs to update the firmware of the new hardware module by inquiring and downloading the firmware of the corresponding version in the replaced hardware module, so that the firmware of the latest version or the firmware of the favored/used version of the user is obtained in the new hardware module.
According to the processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, the firmware information of the first firmware of the first hardware module is stored in the corresponding storage position of the electronic device in advance, and the firmware in the new hardware module is still the firmware in the latest version or the firmware in the preferred/customary version of the user aiming at the second hardware module installed on the electronic device after the first hardware module is replaced, so that the problem that a tester or a user and other related personnel need to manually update the firmware of the new hardware module because the firmware version of the new hardware module is different from that of the replaced hardware module is solved, the replacement efficiency of the hardware module in the electronic device is improved, the operation of the user is simplified, and the user experience is improved.
In an alternative embodiment, referring to the flowchart of the processing method shown in fig. 2, the processing method provided by the present application may further include, before step 101, the following processing:
Step 201, detecting whether a hardware module installed on the hardware position changes, and if so, triggering a step of determining whether the second firmware and the first firmware are of the same version according to the first hardware module and the second hardware module installed on the hardware position before and after the change.
Specifically, but not limited to, detecting whether the unique identifier of the hardware module installed at the hardware location changes, if the unique identifier of the installed hardware module changes, determining that the hardware module installed at the hardware location changes, otherwise, if the unique identifier does not change, then the hardware module installed at the hardware location does not change.
For example, whether the serial number of the network card installed on the network card slot changes is detected, if the serial number of the network card installed on the network card slot changes, the network card installed on the network card slot is determined to change, otherwise, if the serial number does not change, the network card installed on the network card slot does not change.
Under the condition that the change of the hardware module installed on the hardware position is detected, the step 101 and the subsequent processing steps are triggered, so that when the second firmware in the second hardware module and the first firmware in the first hardware module are in different versions, the firmware in the second hardware module is automatically updated to the first firmware in the first hardware module, manual replacement of a user is avoided, user operation is simplified, and meanwhile replacement efficiency of the hardware module is improved.
Otherwise, if the hardware module installed on the hardware position is detected to be unchanged, the step 101 and subsequent processing steps thereof are not triggered, so that unnecessary invalid processing caused by executing the step 101 in each power-on self-checking stage of the electronic equipment under the condition that the hardware module is not changed is avoided, the processing workload of the electronic equipment is reduced, and the equipment power consumption is saved.
In an alternative embodiment, referring to the flowchart of the processing method shown in fig. 3, for the case that the second firmware and the first firmware are different versions, the processing method provided by the present application may further include the following processing before the first firmware is obtained from the storage location and the second firmware in the second hardware module is updated to the first firmware:
Step 301, outputting first prompt information to prompt the electronic device to indicate the firmware to be adopted; and triggering to obtain the first firmware from the storage location in response to detecting first indication information indicating adoption of the first firmware, and updating second firmware in the second hardware module to the first firmware.
The first prompt information is used for prompting related personnel such as testers or users to indicate the firmware to be adopted to the electronic equipment. An alternative prompting mode corresponding to the first prompting information is to output two operable controls respectively referring to the first firmware of the first hardware module and the second firmware of the second hardware module, remind a user and other related personnel to select, for example, output a first button referring to the old network card firmware and a second button referring to the new network card firmware, remind the user and other related personnel to select the two buttons, and the related personnel can select the required firmware through button operation (such as clicking the buttons).
Another alternative prompting manner is to output question information for asking whether to update the second firmware in the second hardware module to the first firmware, and display corresponding selectable controls, for example, display two buttons respectively displaying yes and no, or display two buttons respectively displaying replacement and not replacing, etc., so that a user and related personnel can instruct whether to update the second firmware in the second hardware module to the first firmware through button operation (such as clicking on the button), thereby implementing the purpose of indicating to the electronic device that the firmware to be adopted is required, for example, if yes or replacement is selected, the purpose of indicating to the electronic device that the second firmware in the second hardware module needs to be updated to the first firmware is required, and if no or not replaced, the purpose of indicating to the electronic device that the second firmware in the second hardware module does not need to be updated to the first firmware is required, and accordingly the purpose of indicating to the electronic device that the second firmware needs to be adopted is required.
The above only provides the optional prompting manner of the first prompting information by way of example, in practical application, the prompting manner of the first prompting information may be diversified, and is not limited to the foregoing prompting manner provided in this embodiment, so long as the prompting function of prompting related personnel such as a tester or a user to indicate the firmware to be adopted to the electronic device can be played.
Optionally, in implementation, the first prompt information may be specifically output through a BIOS self-checking interface of the electronic device or through a BMC (BaseboardManagement Controller ) page of the electronic device in a power-on self-checking stage of the electronic device. The BIOS self-checking interface is a startup self-checking interface of a local display of the electronic equipment such as a server, the BMC page is a remote call page of the electronic equipment, in implementation, the BIOS self-checking interface can be used for displaying first prompt information on the local display of the electronic equipment, so that a tester or related personnel such as a user can update the second firmware in the second hardware module through local operation, or the remote BMC page can be used for displaying the first prompt information, and correspondingly, the tester or related personnel such as the user can update the second firmware in the second hardware module through remote call and related operation, and in practical application, an adaptive implementation mode can be selected as required.
In the embodiment of outputting the first prompt information through the BIOS self-checking interface of the electronic device, if the first indication information indicating that the first firmware is adopted is detected, the electronic device may update the firmware through the BIOS interface, that is, update the second firmware in the second hardware module to the first firmware through the BIOS interface. In the embodiment of outputting the first prompt information through the BMC page of the electronic device, the electronic device may update the firmware through the BMC interface, that is, update the second firmware in the second hardware module to the first firmware through the BMC interface.
In this embodiment, when the first instruction information indicating that the first firmware is adopted is detected, the step of acquiring the first firmware from the storage location (the storage location of the first firmware) and updating the second firmware in the second hardware module to the first firmware is triggered, so that the second firmware in the second hardware module is automatically updated to the first firmware in the first hardware module, thereby avoiding manual update of a user, simplifying user operation, and improving replacement efficiency of the hardware module.
Optionally, after updating the second firmware in the second hardware module to the first firmware, the electronic device may be restarted, and by restarting the electronic device, the first firmware in the second hardware module is validated and enters an operating system of the electronic device.
And under the condition that the second instruction information indicating to adopt the second firmware is detected, the second firmware in the second hardware module is not required to be updated, and under the condition, the unexecuted part in the starting self-checking flow of the electronic equipment can be continuously executed to complete the starting self-checking of the electronic equipment and enter the operating system of the electronic equipment.
Compared with the previous embodiments, the embodiment can provide the independent selection function of the firmware to be adopted for the testers or the related personnel such as the users, the related personnel can indicate the firmware to be adopted to the electronic equipment according to the need under the prompt of the first prompt information, the electronic equipment can avoid the situation that the related personnel such as the users actually need to adopt the second firmware (for example, the first firmware is assumed to be a certain non-latest version network card firmware used by the users, the second firmware is the latest version network card firmware, and certain users possibly want to experience the latest version network card firmware), and the second firmware in the second hardware module is updated by utilizing the first firmware, so that the user requirements are further met, and the user experience is improved.
In an alternative embodiment, referring to the flowchart of the processing method shown in fig. 4, the processing method provided by the present application may further include, before step 101, the following processing:
step 401, after updating the first firmware of the first hardware module installed on the electronic device, outputting a second prompt message to prompt to indicate to the electronic device whether to store the firmware information of the updated first firmware;
Step 402, in response to detecting third indication information indicating to store the firmware information of the updated first firmware, storing the firmware information of the updated first firmware in the corresponding storage location of the electronic device.
In this embodiment, when the first firmware of the first hardware module installed on the electronic device is updated based on reasons such as firmware upgrade, and the first firmware update is completed, the second prompt message is output. The second prompt information is used for prompting related personnel such as testers or users to indicate whether firmware information of the updated first firmware is stored or not. For example, question information for asking whether to store the firmware information of the updated first firmware is output, and corresponding selectable controls are output, such as two buttons respectively displaying "yes", "no", or two buttons respectively displaying "store", "not store", etc., and a user or the like may indicate whether to store the firmware information of the updated first firmware by a button operation (e.g., clicking a button).
And if third indication information indicating to store the updated firmware information of the first firmware is detected, storing the updated firmware information of the first firmware to the corresponding storage position. Otherwise, if the indication information indicating that the updated firmware information of the first firmware is not stored is detected, the updated firmware information of the first firmware is not stored in the corresponding storage position, and if the firmware information of the first firmware which is not updated is already stored in the storage position, the existing storage information is maintained.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, a storage space with a predetermined size is provided in a BMC EMMC (embedded multimedia controller), and a storage location corresponding to the storage space is used as a storage location for storing firmware information of the first firmware. When third indication information indicating to store the updated firmware information of the first firmware is detected, the updated firmware information of the first firmware may be specifically updated to the storage space of the BMC EMMC to be stored, where the stored firmware information includes, but is not limited to, information such as a firmware program, a version number, and a release time of the updated first firmware. Subsequently, when the first hardware module is replaced with the second hardware module (for example, the first hardware module is replaced with the second hardware module due to a fault), the first firmware stored in the memory space of the BMC EMMC may be used to update the second firmware of the second hardware module as required.
The embodiment further provides an autonomous selection function of whether to store the firmware information of the updated first firmware under the condition that the first firmware update occurs for related personnel such as testers or users, so that the device functions are further enriched, and the user experience is improved.
