Example Embodiment

[0082] Example one

[0083] In this embodiment, the type of the smart interface card slot is a PCIE interface slot. Registering the virtualized management interface with the host through the preset type of protocol stack is: registering the virtualized management interface on the PCIE interface of the host through the preset type of protocol stack.

[0084] Such as figure 2 As shown, in the PCIE architecture, the host is the root node (RC) of the PCIE, and the interface card is the endpoint (EP) of the PCIE. One EP can implement different function (FUNCTION) channels, including service channels and management channels. Since this embodiment is only used to illustrate the host's management process of the smart interface card, therefore, figure 2 The FUNCTION that the service channel of the smart interface card presents to the host is not drawn in, only the FUNCTION that the management channel presents to the service is drawn.

[0085] Same as figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment,...

Example Embodiment

[0094] Example two

[0095] In this embodiment, the type of the smart interface card slot is a PCIE interface slot. Registering the virtualized management interface to the host through a preset type of protocol stack is a SCSI interface.

[0096] Such as Figure 5 As shown, in the PCIE architecture, the host is the root node (RC) of the PCIE, and the interface card is the endpoint (EP) of the PCIE. One EP can implement different function (FUNCTION) channels, including service channels and management channels. Since this embodiment is only used to illustrate the host's management process of the smart interface card, therefore, figure 2 The FUNCTION that the service channel of the smart interface card presents to the host is not drawn in, only the FUNCTION that the management channel presents to the service is drawn.

[0097] Same as Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the type of the protocol stack of the virtualized management interface is the SCSI interface, and the smart inte...

Abstract

The invention discloses a control method for an intelligent interface card. The method comprises the steps of registering a virtualized management interface to a host through a preset type of a protocol stack after insertion in an intelligent interface card slot of the host; creating a virtual link, and inserting a BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) management interface into the virtual link; receiving a management address configuration instruction sent by the host, and configuring a management address of the management interface according to the management address configuration instruction; and receiving a control instruction sent through the management address by the host, and sending the control instruction to the BMC management interface through the virtual link. According to the control method for the intelligent interface card, the expansibility of the intelligent interface card can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of smart interface cards, in particular to a control method and device for smart interface cards. Background technique [0002] With the development of computer technology and communication technology, smart interface cards (English: Smart Interface Card, SIC for short) become more and more complex. The hardware architecture of the existing smart interface card not only has a powerful SOC chip, but also is equipped with DDR memory, SSD hard disk, CPLD, BMC for management, various voltage and temperature monitoring chips, and various network ports, The configuration of peripherals such as SAS ports is close to that of a small server. [0003] The smart interface card works by being inserted into the corresponding interface slot on the server, and the server needs to establish a channel for transmitting control commands with the smart interface card to manage the smart interface card. Traditional technologie...
