Method and equipment for updating FPGA firmware of operation board based on server control board

Abstract

The invention provides a method and device for updating FPGA firmware of an operation board based on a server control board, and the method comprises the steps: receiving an updating execution file, and converting the updating execution file into updating sequence information; connecting the to-be-updated FPGA, and judging whether the current to-be-updated firmware meets an updating condition or not; and if the updating condition is met, updating the to-be-updated FPGA by executing the updating sequence information through an updating execution module. The received usb command is converted into the jtag firmware command based on the server operation board system, so that unified configuration of the updating and upgrading command and the data information in the system is realized, and updating is facilitated. Update can be performed based on update data input by a user, other hosts can also be updated based on the hosts, an update mode between the hosts can be performed based on presettime or preset adjustment, and automatic update is realized. The problem that the workload is large due to the fact that each operation board is independently updated and upgraded is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of single-chip microcomputers of the linux system, in particular to a system, method and equipment for updating programs of a computing board of a server. Background technique [0002] In the supercomputing center, the server is connected to the controller mainboard through the network, the control board is connected to the computing board through PCIE and JTAG, the server sends task requests to the control board, the control board sends data requests to the computing board, and the computing board feeds back data to the control board The processing result, the control panel finally feeds back the task processing result to the server. [0003] Update and upgrade the computing board software in the server based on actual needs. Generally, the computing board can improve the data processing speed of the computing board by updating the firmware. Due to the large number of computing boards in the server, if you ...

[0003] Update and upgrade the computing board software in the server based on actual needs. Generally, the computing board can improve the data processing speed of the computing board by updating the firmware. Due to the large number of computing boards in the server, if each computing board is individually updated and upgraded The workload is heavy, and due to the different command programs and code compilation methods of the computing boards, the operation is difficult, and it is impossible to perform a unified update and upgrade. The board can be updated and upgraded in time, and the update operation is difficult, so that the server cannot meet the demand
