Abstract
A method for dynamically updating resource configuration state includes setting up a data storage region first, using basic I/O system to check resource configuration state at master path and storing checked result in said data storage region, setting up update sampler table and filling data stored in data storage region correspondingly into said update sampler table.
Description
Technical field
The invention relates to a kind of data updating technology, particularly about a kind of can be under the not ready as yet situation of hardware, obtain the resources allocation situation, the method that dynamically updates resource configuration state of the relevant form that upgrades in time by the mode of running software.
Background technology
ACPI (Advanced Configuration ﹠amp; Power Interface is designated hereinafter simply as ACPI) power-management interface of all hardware is provided for the application program management of operating system.In the middle of operating system, collocation hardware can detect the information such as voltage of mainboard temperature, rotation speed of the fan and power supply unit, provides suitable power supply and host work frequency, the effect that reaches economize on electricity and efficient and deposit.ACPI is the earliest by Intel, Microsoft and the common electric power management system interface of developing of Toshiba, it can make operating system (OS) can manage the electricity consumption situation of peripherals according to certain mode, hard disk or screen are surpassed the user enter energy-saving mode when one section special time does not use, perhaps out of service, reuse up to the user.
The ACPI standard can be used on general personal computer and the notebook computer.It is transferred to OS (operating system) with the use of keyholed back plate computing machine and peripheral unit power supply and is responsible for, and just when operating system detects partial function and do not use, reduces the use of power minimizing power supply automatically.But therefore in order to allow OS keyholed back plate power supply, directly link the shift knob of power supply unit (Power Supply) on the mainboard, unlike the early stage practice is that shift knob with power supply unit is connected on the power supply unit, if the shift knob of power supply unit is turned to the state of " pass " in the past, then computing machine is stopped power supply at once, now when the user presses power knob on the lower panel, only can enter sleep (sleeping mode) state, if really the power supply of computing machine will be closed fully, then must continue to push power knob on the panel after four seconds, system is just notified to be closed power supply fully, and during this section, data is carried out appropriate arrangement, OS has at fingertips to the operation situation of present system state simultaneously, for example, the user is carrying out bulletin work now, and application program can inform that screen normally uses, and the power management principle can make an amendment according to current needs at any time, do not need to start shooting again.The more important thing is and utilize the OS management, can not have the problem of power management principle parking space as the BIOS management.The hardware of ACPI specification is much more extensive than APM, also provide in addition one easily window interface allow the user set and to manage, learn simultaneously the use situation of present power supply by graphic interface, can reach preferable power management capabilities and purpose.
The CPU (central processing unit) (CPU) of traditional X86 structure is gone into chip chamber to output only has a predominating path to be called Single HOST, therefore only must provide static ACPI form to get final product to operating system, but AMD HT-Based now can support 4 predominating paths, ACPI under the conventional architectures will report that all some resources are (as internal memory, bus, input/output device) resource (Resource) of ACPI definition such as, if any 4 predominating paths, then must report the resource distribution situation of every predominating path one by one, in other words, article 2, predominating path need be set up 2 parts of ACPI tables, article 3, predominating path then need be set up 3 parts of ACPI tables, by that analogy, the way that resource distribution information obtains in the existing ACPI table is when system is ready, under open state, insert after the arrangement situation by user's frame of reference resource in the ACPI table, the shortcoming of this way be need be at machine ready and boot program can carry out under the situation of DOS, can obtain required resource distribution information, so make the test duration of ACPI delay, and because of being the mode of artificial input, can't be applicable to other system platform, and after the used system platform of project of every replacing, because platform architecture and predominating path are all inequality, so during each the test, must insert corresponding resource distribution information again, if pilot process or information are wrong, also difficultly find out the single actually predominating path of problem or other predominating path causes, cause expending of time, increase user's inconvenience, therefore, how a kind of resource information adquisitiones that is applicable to each system platform is provided, in response to existing system platform trend, be present problem demanding prompt solution with a plurality of predominating paths.
Summary of the invention
For overcoming the shortcoming of above-mentioned prior art, fundamental purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of method that dynamically updates resource configuration state, it can dynamically update the configuration and the application scenarios of the contained resource of predominating path, avoid manually upgrading consumed time, can be ready for the ACPI function as early as possible, even hardware is not prepared fully as yet, software section also can be reported the state of hardware in advance.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a kind of method that dynamically updates resource configuration state, it need not distinguish platform architecture and contained predominating path number applicable to the system platform framework of disparity items, significantly increases elasticity and convenience on using.
Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of method that dynamically updates resource configuration state, and it can make the user be easy to debug and put what the reason that platform architecture produces different problems is in order, reduces debug and required time of the problem of finding out.
For reaching above-mentioned and other purpose, the invention provides a kind of method that dynamically updates resource configuration state, it plans a region of data storage in the running software mode in advance, exchanges data zone as basic input/output and ACPI program code, solving basic input/output (BIOS) and ACPI program code can't compatible problem, basic input/output is detected the resource distribution and the application result that obtain insert indirectly in the ACPI table, read for operating system; The method that dynamically updates resource configuration state of the present invention comprises: (1) sets up a data storage area in advance; (2) basic input/output detects the distribution situation of contained resource on the predominating path, and testing result is stored in this data storage area; (3) set up renewal model table; And (4) are filled out the store data correspondence of this data storage area and are put in this renewal model table.
In sum, the method that dynamically updates resource configuration state provided by the invention is applicable in the system platform with at least one predominating path, be ready for the function of ACPI as early as possible, avoid manually upgrading consumed time, and, need not distinguish platform architecture and contained predominating path number applicable to the platform architecture of disparity items, significantly increase elasticity and convenience on using, the user is easy to debug and finds out the very crux of problem, so can solve the existing in prior technology problem really.
