System and method for obtaining fault in-situ information for computer operating system

Abstract

The invention is a computer operating system failure field information obtaining system and method, comprising EFI BIOS and operating system running on EFI BIOS, as well as operating system monitoring module, counter and hardware key module, where the EFI BIOS comprises memory allocating module and running time service module; after the system is power-on, when EFI BIOS initializes the memory, the memory allocating module divides physical memory into operating system memory and failure analysis system memory; when the operating system runs, it starts and is resident at the operating system monitoring module, and the operating system monitoring module collects operating system field information; when the operating system breaks down, the operating system monitoring module informs the running time service module of the event of operating system breakdown; the running time service module establishes an failure analysis system environment for obtaining system failure field information to obtain the operating system failure field information; and it can assure making system analysis and diagnosis in the failure field of the operating system and obtain the failure field information.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computers, and in particular to a system and method for obtaining on-site information on a computer operating system failure. Background technique [0002] Current computer operating systems (Operation System, OS), especially multi-tasking operating systems, such as Windows operating systems, are relatively complex. During the operation of a complete operating system, due to the running of multiple applications or new programs, it may A new fault has occurred. Generally, existing operating systems have some operating system diagnosis and maintenance methods that can monitor the working status of the operating system and alert users in advance when problems may arise. However, when some fatal errors occur in the operating system (such as memory errors, out-of-bounds access by applications, etc.), the operating system will crash, including an infinite loop (i.e., crash) or an unrecognized error (blue screen). In thi...

[0008] However, the disadvantages of this method are also obvious. The main disadvantage is that system administrators or operating system developers need to go to the site to operate, which requires a lot of time and energy for system administrators or operating system developers to develop the operating system. Diagnostics and Maintenance

And because there is no scene when the computer crashes, the system administrator or operating system developer cannot accurately locate the fault, but can only rely on experience and a large number of analysis tool programs to find problems and obtain on-site fault information by running for a long time. Very low, and the probability of being able to find out the on-site information of the computer operating system failure is also low

Therefore, this method cannot be widely used in practical applications.
