Problems solved by technology

During the development process of BIOS, to verify and debug the changes of these ACPI tables, the usual method is to modify the relevant codes in the BIOS source code, regenerate the BIOS file, and then burn the BIOS chip. This process is tedious and time-consuming.

Embodiment Construction

[0013] Such as figure 1 As shown, it is a structure diagram of a preferred embodiment of the ACPI table remote update system of the present invention. The ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Management Interface, advanced configuration and power management interface) table remote update system 10 runs in the testing machine 1 , and the testing machine 1 also includes a memory 20 . The testing machine 1 communicates with the debugging host 2 through the network 3 . The network 3 can be the Internet or an enterprise intranet.

[0014] The testing machine 1 is used for reading and writing operations to the ACPI table, thereby completing the separate update of the ACPI table, providing the updated ACPI table to the upper-level operating system or program, and conveniently testing the ACPI table. Whether the modifications made are valid.

[0015] The debugging host 2 is used for remotely receiving and modifying the ACPI table data, so that the testing machine 1 can remotely d...

Abstract

A method for remotely updating an ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) table, comprising the following steps of: searching for an ACPI table stored in the internal memory area of a memory in the startup process of a BIOS (Basic Input-Output System), and reading the data of the ACPI table; transmitting the read data of the ACPI table to a debugging host through a network; downloading the modified ACPI table from the debugging host through the network; writing the modified ACPI table in the corresponding internal memory area of the memory to take the place of the ACPI table stored in the memory previously. The invention also provides a system for remotely updating an ACPI table. The method is capable of remotely and independently modifying the ACPI table without re-generating a BIOS file or burning a BIOS chip.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an update system and method, in particular to an ACPI table remote update system and method. Background technique [0002] In the development of BIOS (Basic Input Output System, basic input and output system) of computer motherboard, the support of ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Management Interface, advanced configuration and power management interface) is usually indispensable. BIOS usually contains a lot of ACPI related content to support or implement the ACPI specification. The BIOS provides the most basic ACPI tables in the ACPI architecture, and the operating system or other programs rely on these basic ACPI tables to complete ACPI-related operations. During the development process of BIOS, to verify and debug the changes of these ACPI tables, the usual method is to modify the relevant codes in the BIOS source code, regenerate the BIOS file, and then burn the BIOS chip. This process is cumbersome and time-consumi...
