Firmware updating method and device of chip, equipment and storage medium

Abstract

The invention discloses a firmware updating method for a chip, which is applied to a BMC. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring an updated firmware file of a target chip; calling a preset program script to analyze and update the firmware file to obtain a target format file corresponding to the target chip; establishing a communication connection relationship between the target chip and a signal chip of the BMC to obtain a corresponding transmission path; and transmitting the target format file to the target chip according to the transmission path, so that the target chip performs firmware updating by using the target format file. It can be seen that the method can improve the convenience of firmware updating of the chip, prevent the firmware updating process from being affected by other devices, relatively guarantee the stability and reliability of service operation of the server, reduce the consumption of human resources and improve the firmware updating efficiency. The invention furthermore discloses a chip firmware updating device, equipment and a computer readable storage medium, which have the above beneficial effects.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of firmware update, in particular to a chip firmware update method, device, equipment and computer-readable storage medium. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of network technology, there are more and more software defects and hardware failures of network card chips. In order to improve the performance of the network card chip and reduce the impact on the business operation of the entire server caused by the abnormality of the software and hardware of the network card chip, it is necessary to update the firmware inside the network card chip in a timely and rapid manner to repair the abnormalities of the software and hardware, and then relatively guarantee Stable and reliable operation of the server business. [0003] In the prior art, there are generally two commonly used methods for updating the firmware of the target chip: the first is to use a burner to burn; the basic process is: disassemble...

Problems solved by technology

However, this method requires the user to manually type in complex commands and parameters. Not only is the operation process cumbersome, but also consumes a lot of human resources, and it is easy to cause typing errors due to manual errors, resulting in abnormal firmware programming, which in turn affects the efficiency of firmware updates.
