Method and device for configuring MAC address of FPGA accelerator card and accelerator card

Abstract

The present application discloses a method, device and system for configuring a MAC address of an FPGA accelerator card, an accelerator card and a computer-readable storage medium. The method comprisethe following steps: receiving a MAC address configuration instruction, wherein a target MAC address is included in the MAC address configuration instruction; and writing the target MAC address intoa preset memory space according to the MAC address configuration instruction, so that an FPGA accelerator card loads the target MAC address by reading the preset memory space. This application saves the MAC address to be configured to the preset memory space, the FPGA accelerator card which needs to configure a MAC address reads the preset memory space to realize that loading of the target MAC address, that is, the present application separates the configuration of the MAC address from the loading process, eliminates the need to rely on the accelerator card-related engineering in the configuration, ensures that the recompilation of the accelerator card engineering does not affect the configuration of the MAC address, realizes the dynamic configuration of the MAC address, and facilitates the reconfiguration of the MAC address.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of computer technology, and more specifically, relates to an FPGA accelerator card MAC address configuration method, device, system, an FPGA accelerator card, and a computer-readable storage medium. Background technique [0002] The FPGA heterogeneous accelerator card is equipped with two 10G optical modules and PCIE interfaces. In the process of R&D and production, in order to meet the diversified needs of different customers, various solutions will be provided according to the needs of customers. It can be used as a pure hardware acceleration platform for data interaction through PCIE, or FPGA heterogeneous accelerator card can be used as a smart network card. At this time, the data interacts with external data through a 10G optical module, and then transmits the data to the host through PCIE . When it is used as an intelligent network card, it is necessary to configure a MAC address for the FPGA accelera...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the method of writing the MAC address in the FPGA project for synthesis is extremely inflexible. Every time the MAC project is configured, the FPGA project needs to be updated and compiled for a long time. This method is basically only suitable for development and debugging or small batch production. In some cases, the MAC address needs to be configured at the factory, and the FPGA accelerator card is a general hardware platform. Different users will recompile and load the FPGA project according to different needs, which will cause the configured MAC address to become invalid.

And if customers need to configure other MAC addresses, they need to return to the factory for configuration
