Abstract

The invention provides a firmware upgrading protection method and device for a PCIE storage module, and the method comprises the steps: opening application software of the PCIE storage module installed on an upper computer, pressing a key switch on a PICE storage module, and enabling the PICE storage module to enter a firmware refreshing mode; reading mark information of an I2C FLASH module pre-stored in a PCIE storage module based on the mainboard information reading request, comparing the read mark information with preset information in the application software, if the read mark informationis consistent with the preset information in the application software, passing verification, selecting firmware to be upgraded through the application software, and sending the firmware to be upgradedto a mainboard underlying system; and enabling the mainboard bottom layer system to send the firmware to be upgraded to a PCIE storage module for burning, and completing firmware upgrading of the PCIE storage module if burning succeeds. According to the firmware upgrading method and device, the technical problem that upgrading of the specific function of the storage module with the specific function made of the PCIE storage module fails is solved, the problem that firmware is not updated thoroughly is avoided, and the security of firmware upgrading is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer program processing, in particular to a firmware upgrade protection method and device for a PCIE storage module. Background technique [0002] The PC equipment or server equipment on the existing market adopts the Windows or Linux operating system. For most standard PCIE memory cards, it can be used in any standard PC or server PCIE slot. Even the hardware solutions of such cards are similar, so the firmware can be universal to a certain extent. When the PCIE storage module of this general scheme is made into a storage module with specific functions after secondary development, the original general firmware is not applicable. If it is manually flashed into the general firmware, then the secondary developed PCIE storage The specific function of the device will fail, and the data on the connected storage medium may be damaged or tampered with. Therefore, how to safely upgrade the PCIE storage modu...
