Background technology
Computing machine is an industrial revolution influence afterwards the most deep and broad human science and technology, and even to this day, we we can say there is not computing machine, just do not have modern new civilization.The Internet this develop surprisingly over 4 years, human history more may enter continue agricultural, cybertimes after the industrial age, and computer and network is the basis of human next stage civilization construction.And Microsoft, the hugest single strength of " decision " computer and network development just.
Microsoft is the construction person of present PC World common language, from early stage dos operating system, the situation that Microsoft has unified computing machine early stage of development a hundred flowers blossom, the operating system that makes personal computer is under the standard of unanimity, violent quick-fried property progress, the lifting that doubles along with hardware efficiency, personal computer replaces mainframe computer finally, begin to become the indispensable electrical equipment of many families, the WINDOWS epoch arrive afterwards, the convenient operation-interface that uses, use a computer and to rely on program language as the book from heaven, personal computer and Microsoft further become more families instrument indispensable with the individual again, because of it gos deep into, extensively enter human lives's degree, make us have to pay attention to the power management of computer installation.
Advanced power-management interface (Advanced Power Management; APM), be Intel and Microsoft in 92 years defined power saving management interface, it makes computing machine utilize APM to do control of peripheral power supply and management, this method is promptly controlled by BIOS; Support the also responsible various peripheral devices of BIOS of APM with oneself, subroutine as screen, hard disk, floppy disk and mainboard system itself etc., provide out with 16bit/32bit protected Mode, and set up suitable calling form, allow other operating system (as Windows) can directly call the power supply status of control hardware.
But the dominant right of APM power management is to transfer to the BIOS keyholed back plate, because of the function of APM definition is limited to, can accomplish it is that (the normally break-even time value of a device) shuts down certain device after setting a few minutes at most, and do simple monitoring, the efficient that power supply is saved not is very high.Because of reality start back real leading, what control whole computing machine is operating system, the scheduling of actual contact peripheral device, the also therefore operation center of gravity of power management, must transfer to OS by BIOS and could really perform to the highest power management efficiency fully, economize on electricity need redefine power supply of new generation/configuration control interface (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface at OS; ACPI).
ACPI is by Intel, Microsoft, Toshiba common the formulation for a common power-management interface is arranged between operating system and hardware, with before improving on power management by disunity interface that each other manufacturer was formulated.It is begun to support by Win98 and WNT5.0, and the function of power management is incorporated in the operating system, controls the power operation of all hardware by unified interface, from the notebook to the desktop PC and server all be included in this specification.
In the ACPI How It Works, operating system is utilized AML language program interpreter, by the ACPI driver peripheral device that meets APCI standard design is done unlatchings, operation such as is closed, or close automatically after the setting some time, opening device or the like.The method of its control has two kinds, and a kind of is to interrupt signal by SCI (Svstem Control Interrupt), and another then is by very complicated tableau format, and directly periphery is to periphery, and periphery is to CPU and the CPU communication to periphery.
Wherein, the defined power supply control model of ACPI figure, all states can be divided into G (Global), D (Device), S (Sleeping) and C (CPU).Wherein Global is meant all systems, can be divided into one again, G0-Working: duty, and user's program can be carried out normally, but equipment can have their state, and when not using this equipment, this equipment can enter other off working state; Two, G1-Sleeping: the less power supply of system consumption under this state, program without any the user is being carried out, system seems just as at off-mode, because this moment, display screen was pent, the fork-like farm tool used in ancient China system promptly is returned to duty very soon as long as there is any message of waking startup to pass on into; Three, G2/S5-SoftOff: under this state, system only keeps considerably less power supply, is carrying out without any the program of user and operating system, needs the long time to be returned to duty under this state; Four, G3-Mechanical Off: the power supply of total system is all closed, and by system, the switch that system can only reopen power supply unit starts without any electric current, and the consumption of power supply is zero under this state.Device is meant some devices, as modulator-demodular unit, Winchester disk drive, CD-ROM drive etc., can be divided into one again, D0-Fully-On: under the operate as normal; Two, D1: can economize less power supply; Three, D2: some function is closed, and can economize more power supply; Four, D3-Off: the power supply of equipment is moved out of fully under this state, so following secondary source needs operating system again this equipment to be done once to set again when being supplied again.Sleeping is meant that system enters sleep state under G1, can be divided into one again, S1-Sleeping: the running of answering system that can be very fast under this state, the content of system are all less than losing; Two, S2-Sleeping: but the content loss in the sixth of the twelve Earthly Branches of similar S1 CPU and Cache, and the content that back operation system need be safeguarded CPU and Cache is replied by system; Three, S3-Sleeping: the content of all the other CPU, Cache and Chipset is all lost except the data of storer, and the content of storer is by hardware maintenance; Four, S4-Sleeping: this state has minimum power supply pin consumption, and the longest turnaround time, all equipment all are closed; Five, S5-Soft Off: the state and the S4 that promptly are Global G2 are similar, but operating system is not safeguarded any content.CPU can be divided into one again, the C0:CPU execution command; Two, C1: under minimum turnaround time, software is unaffected fully; Three, C2: good than C1; Four, C3: good than C2.ACPI defines five kinds of power supply switch modes, effectively utilizes operating system to reach the characteristic of power supply keyholed back plate.
When system enters energy-saving mode, once there is any peripheral device to be triggered, system can produce the hardware interrupts signal notice of a SMI and wake CPU up this moment, cpu clock recovers running, and fetch the relevant information of previous storage by BIOS, OS after, be returned to the duty of original time-out with the RSM instruction.
Though ACPI provides powerful power-management interface, but the standby time of a device is judged by the WINDOWS system in time qualified mode (Time Out), though the method can reach the characteristic that power supply is saved, but caused the problem of another waste power supply, as the mode of using Time Out need waste power supply and supply this device electric power of standby time, and can't close this idle device effectively in real time.
Therefore, how a kind of dynamic power supply management method of device is proposed at the problems referred to above, not only can improve traditional shortcoming, can more effectively save power supply again, not be to use the person eagerly to look forward to for a long time always, for this reason, the inventor is based on research, exploitation, sale practical experience and the individual's thereof of the Related product of engaging in power management for many years professional knowledge, through research and design, special topic discussion in many ways, work out a kind of dynamic power supply management method of device finally, can solve the above problems.
