Abstract

The invention discloses a firmware upgrading method and device. The method comprises the following steps:obtaining an identifier of at least one to-be-updated firmware stored in a preset form; obtaining upgrading files corresponding to all the to-be-updated firmware according to the identifier of the to-be-updated firmware; upgrading files corresponding to the to-be-updated firmware are respectively brushed into the corresponding to-be-updated firmware through a basic input and output system, so that the to-be-updated firmware is updated according to the upgrading files; and under the condition of determining that all the to-be-updated firmware is completely updated, executing equipment restart operation through the basic input and output system to complete upgrading of the to-be-updated firmware.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of computers, in particular to a method and device for upgrading firmware. Background technique [0002] Firmware is the software used to control hardware devices, written into hardware such as BIOS (Basic Input Output System, basic input and output system), ME (Intel Management Engine, management engine), EC (embedded controller, embedded controller), etc. Working with the most basic and bottom layer of a system. In hardware devices, firmware is the soul of hardware devices, and some hardware devices have no other software components except firmware. [0003] In the prior art, when the firmware is upgraded, the device needs to be restarted once for each firmware update to complete the firmware upgrade. Therefore, if multiple firmwares are upgraded in batches, multiple restarts are required, which affects the upgrade efficiency. Contents of the invention [0004] The purpose of the embodiments of the pre...
