Description of the invention (q) Via LOCAL BUS and the system The other CES card boards, MUX card boards and STM card boards fully communicated to grasp the operating status of the system and provide control and management of the entire system. (2) Introduction of multi-bus shared memory fault tolerance system. 5 There are one CPU, one SRAM, and one Dual-Port RAM on the main control board and the spare board of the CPU. SRAM is used for real-time data backup (Real Time Data Backup: RTDB), Dual-Port RAM is used for internal processing communication (inter — Process co_unicati〇n: IPC) with other cards in the system, the block diagram is as follows This is shown in Figure VII. The bus of the CPU on the main control board is connected to the RTDB on the standby board, and the bus of the CPU on the standby board is connected to the RTDB on the main board at the same time. In this way, the RTDB on the main board and the standby board At the same time, it is copied by the CPU on the main control board, and its content is the same at any time. Therefore, when the main control board has a condition 15 and the standby board takes over, the RTDB on the standby board can retain the original RTDB of the main board. System data, normal operation continues without data loss. On the other hand, the bus of the CPU on the main control board is connected to the I PC on the standby board. The bus of the CPU on the standby board is also connected to the IPC of the main control board. Under normal circumstances, the main control board uses the main board. The IPC of the control board communicates with the other boards of the system for internal processing. The standby board uses the IPC of the standby board to communicate with the other boards of the system for internal processing. However, when the main board is normal, IPC cannot. During work, the CPU of the main control board can use the IPC on the standby board to communicate with other card boards in the system for internal processing. In the same way, the CPU on the standby board can also use the IPC of the main control board and other card boards in the system for internal use. -9- This paper standard uses the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 regulation ^: (21〇x 297 公)- ------------ 一 • I r ----------- Install -------- Order --------- (Please read first Note on the back, please fill out this page again) Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau's Consumer Consumption Cooperative of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 542961 A7 ____ β7 PA890393.TWP-10/17 Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau's Employee Consumption Cooperative of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Printed Description of the Invention (¾) Handling communication, its whole The outline is shown in Figure 8. The biggest difference between the hardware architecture of the multi-bus shared-memory fault-tolerant system and the traditional fault-tolerant system's hardware architecture is the extent to which the standby board can continue to operate after the main control board goes down. And referring to the situation described in the prior art, 5 The spare board of the multi-bus shared memory fault tolerance system in the present invention will utilize the multi-bus architecture through another I p C channel (as shown in Figures 7 and 8). (Shown) I learned that there is a signal waiting for the card board to respond, so I sent a response signal to the card board to allow the system to continue to work normally. (2) Introduction of A C L and the unified fault tolerance system. In the system, the four card boards of CES, MUX, STM, and CPU have the design of the main control board and the spare board. The overall outline is shown in Figure 9. The selection of its main control board or standby board is determined by the selection of control logic (Access C (DntrQl Logic: ACL)). The traditional selection logic is to have a control line on the main control board and the standby board to control the main control board. Board = 1 and standby board (or main control board = 0 and standby board 2 1) to determine which is the main control board and which is the standby board. Such selection logic will be at a loss when the following situations occur Malfunctions occur, such as: 1 When any control line is disconnected. 2. The two control lines are at the same time 0 or at the same time due to noise or interference. 3. The two control lines are constantly changing for a short time. The system's main control board and standby board each have two control lines to indicate their status. In this way, a total of 16 states can be determined to be the main control board or the standby board. The selection logic is shown in Figure 10.

Description of the invention 〆) State of sadness' c and d represent the status of the standby board, based on the majority rule and state similarity rules It can be found that the states of 001, 100, 1110, 1101, etc. will clearly lead to state 1100, that is, the main control board moves. The same states of 1011, 0111, 000 1, 0010 will clearly lead to the 5-way state 00U, that is, the standby board moves. Although states 1111 and 1001 cannot be explicitly guided to 1100 or 0011 based on the two rules of majority and state similarity, they can be explicitly directed to 1011, while 1011 is explicitly directed to 0011, that is, the spare board. action. In the same way, if the states 011 and 100,000 are based on the two rules of majority and state similarity, they cannot be explicitly guided to 1100 or 0011, but they can be explicitly guided to 〇〇〇〇, 〇〇1 〇 is clearly directed to 0011, that is, the action of the backup board. Similarly, if the status 0101 is based on the two rules of majority and status similarity, it cannot be explicitly directed to 1100 or 0011, but it can be explicitly directed to 010, and 1101 is explicitly directed to 1100, that is, the main control Board action. In the same way, if the state 10100 is based on the two rules of majority 15 and similarity, it cannot be explicitly directed to 1100 or 0011, but it can be explicitly directed to 1,000, and 1000 is explicitly directed. 1100, that is, the main control board moves. .H [Features and Effects] The multi-bus shared-memory fault-tolerant system provided by the present invention has the following advantages when compared with 20 other conventional technologies. 1. Xihui * Hard-memory shared-memory fault-tolerant system The biggest difference between the physical architecture and the hardware architecture of the traditional fault-tolerant system is the extent to which the standby board can continue to operate after the main control board goes down. 2. The spare board of the bus shared memory fault tolerance system will be used. -11-This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 public love) LII 1 · 1 IIIII — — — — — — II «— — — — — — I— I 1 II (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 542961 A7 ____B7______ PA890393.TWP-12/17 5. Description of the invention ( 0 The multi-bus architecture learns that the card board is waiting for a response signal through another IPc channel, so it sends the response signal to the card board to allow the system to continue to work normally.
