[0002] The rapid development of artificial intelligence has led to an increasing demand for computing power in the industry. For applications such as deep learning, the improvement in computing power is due to the application of GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) and NNPs (Neural Network Processors). Currently, in different application scenarios, it is necessary to adjust the performance of the computer by adjusting the CPU power consumption to meet the needs of the computer in different application scenarios.

[0003] In existing technologies, CPU performance parameters, such as the CPU's base frequency, multiplier, or CPU voltage, are typically adjusted by modifying the BIOS (Basic Input Output System) SETUP menu. Adjusting these parameters helps regulate computer performance and power consumption, which is time-consuming, complex, and difficult to meet the needs of ordinary users. Summary of the Invention

[0015] If the encrypted modified value is consistent with the second preset default value, then the basic input / output system operates according to the second preset default value;

[0016] The basic input / output system adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modified value, including:

[0017] If the encrypted modified value is inconsistent with the second preset default value, the basic input / output system adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modified value.

[0018] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0019] The basic input / output system determines whether the CPU power consumption has been successfully adjusted.

[0020] If the CPU power consumption adjustment is successful, then the system will run according to the adjusted CPU power consumption.

[0021] If the CPU power consumption adjustment is unsuccessful, the process returns to the step whereby the operating system determines the modified value of the CPU power consumption based on the modification instruction received by the operating system.

[0022] Optionally, the modification instruction is used to instruct the CPU power consumption to be increased or decreased.

[0023] Optionally, the basic input / output system includes a special function library, and the basic input / output system adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modified value, including:

[0025] Accordingly, this invention also discloses a CPU power consumption regulation system applied to a computer, wherein the computer is equipped with an embedded controller, an operating system, and a basic input / output system.

[0026] When the operating system receives a modification instruction to modify the CPU power consumption, it determines the modification value of the CPU power consumption according to the modification instruction, and sends the modification value to the embedded controller. After the embedded controller receives the modification value, the embedded controller sends the modification value to the basic input / output system.

[0027] The basic input / output system is used to adjust the CPU power consumption based on the processed modified value.

[0031] Optionally, the basic input / output system determines whether the CPU power consumption has been successfully adjusted; if the CPU power consumption has been successfully adjusted, it runs according to the adjusted CPU power consumption; if the CPU power consumption has not been successfully adjusted, it returns to the step of determining the modified value of the CPU power consumption according to the modification instruction when the operating system receives the modification instruction to modify the CPU power consumption.

[0032] Optionally, the modification instruction is used to instruct the CPU power consumption to be increased or decreased.

[0033] Optionally, the basic input / output system includes a special function library, which uses functions in the special function library to adjust the CPU power consumption to the modified value.

[0034] Accordingly, this invention discloses an electronic device, including: a processor, a memory, and a computer program stored in the memory and capable of running on the processor. When the computer program is executed by the processor, it implements the various steps of the CPU power consumption adjustment method embodiments described above.

[0035] Accordingly, this invention discloses a computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the various steps of the CPU power consumption adjustment method embodiments described above.

[0036] The embodiments of the present invention have the following advantages: When the operating system receives a modification instruction to modify CPU power consumption, the operating system determines the modification value of the CPU power consumption according to the modification instruction and sends the modification value to the embedded controller. After receiving the modification value, the embedded controller sends the modification value to the basic input / output system (PIS). The PIS adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modification value. In the embodiments of the present invention, when CPU power consumption needs to be adjusted, the embedded controller sends the modification value to the PIS, and the PIS adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modification value.

[0043] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0044] Reference Figure 1 This diagram illustrates a flowchart of a CPU power consumption adjustment method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method is applied to a computer, which is equipped with an embedded controller, an operating system, and a basic input / output system. Specifically, the method may include the following steps:

[0045] Step 101: When the operating system receives a modification instruction to modify the CPU power consumption, the operating system determines the modification value of the CPU power consumption according to the modification instruction and sends the modification value to the embedded controller. After the embedded controller receives the modification value, the embedded controller sends the modification value to the basic input / output system.

[0046] The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is one of the main components of an electronic computer, a core part of the computer. Its main functions are interpreting computer instructions and processing data in computer software. The CPU is the core component responsible for reading, decoding, and executing instructions. The CPU mainly consists of two parts: the control unit and the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), including high-speed cache memory and the data and control buses that connect them. The three core components of an electronic computer are the CPU, internal memory, and input / output devices. The CPU's main functions are processing instructions, executing operations, controlling timing, and processing data.

[0047] An embedded controller (EC) is an embedded main control chip connected to the CPU's LPC (Low Pin Count) bus. The purpose of an embedded controller is to help a computer (mainly a laptop) manage low-speed peripherals, such as touchpads and matrix keyboards. Most importantly, the computer uses the EC for power management. Power management is particularly crucial in laptops, as it not only controls power on / off but also hibernation and wake-up. The EC acts like an invisible butler for the computer, playing a vital role in its normal operation.

[0048] The Basic Input Output System (BIOS), short for ROM-BIOS, is a set of programs embedded in the computer that provide the lowest-level and most direct hardware control. The BIOS setup program is stored in the BIOS chip and can only be configured during startup. The BIOS acts as a bridge between software programs and hardware devices; simply put, it's a "converter" or interface between hardware and software (although it is itself a program). It handles immediate hardware requests and executes software commands to control the hardware. Its main function is to provide the lowest-level, most direct hardware settings and control for the computer.

[0049] Hotkeys, also known as shortcut keys, are combinations of one or more keys on the keyboard that allow you to quickly access a specific function or perform an operation. Many hotkeys are used in conjunction with keys such as Ctrl, Shift, Alt, Fn, the Windows key on Windows, and the Meta key on Macs. Hotkeys can replace the mouse for various tasks, including opening, closing, and navigating the Start menu, desktop, menus, dialog boxes, and web pages. They are also used for functions such as selecting startup items.

[0050] Users can send commands to modify CPU power consumption using hotkeys. The operating system can receive these commands, determine the required CPU power consumption value, and send the modified value to the embedded controller. Once the embedded controller receives the modified value, it can send it to the basic input / output system.

[0051] In this embodiment of the invention, before the operating system receives the modification instruction to modify CPU power consumption, the method further includes:

[0052] When the computer is started, the embedded controller operates according to a first preset default value and the input / output system operates according to a second preset default value; the first preset default value and the second preset default value are preset default operating values ​​for the CPU power consumption.

[0053] The embedded controller has a first preset default value for CPU power consumption, and the basic input / output system has a second preset default value for CPU power consumption. When the computer is started by the user, the embedded controller can operate according to the first preset default value, and the input / output system can operate according to the second preset default value.

[0054] In this embodiment of the invention, after the embedded controller operates according to a first preset default value and the input / output system operates according to a second preset default value, it further includes:

[0055] Obtain the first actual operating value of the embedded controller and the second actual operating value of the input / output system during operation;

[0056] Determine whether the first actual operating value is consistent with the first preset default value and whether the second actual operating value is consistent with the second preset default value;

[0057] If the first actual operating value is consistent with the first preset default value, and the second actual operating value is consistent with the second preset default value, then the embedded controller continues to operate according to the first preset default value, and the input / output system continues to operate according to the second preset default value.

[0058] After the embedded controller operates according to the first preset default value and the input / output system operates according to the second preset default value...

[0059] The input / output system can obtain the first actual operating value of the CPU power consumption of the embedded controller and the second actual operating value of its own CPU power consumption. It can also compare the first preset default value with the first actual operating value and the second preset default value with the second actual operating value. If the first actual operating value is consistent with the first preset default value and the second actual operating value is consistent with the second preset default value, the embedded controller can continue to operate according to the first preset default value and the input / output system can continue to operate according to the second preset default value. If the first actual operating value is inconsistent with the first preset default value and / or the second actual operating value is inconsistent with the second preset default value, the embedded controller can operate according to the first actual operating value and the input / output system can operate according to the second actual operating value.

[0060] Step 102: The basic input / output system adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modified value.

[0061] The basic input / output system can receive modified values ​​sent by the embedded controller, and then adjust the CPU power consumption according to the modified values, adjusting the CPU power consumption to the modified values.

[0062] The Basic Input / Output System (PIS) can include a startup module and a modification module. When the computer is started, the startup module of the PIS can be triggered. The startup module can be a module written in C language. The startup module enables the embedded controller and the startup module to run according to preset default values. The startup module can also obtain the actual running values ​​of the embedded controller and itself, compare the actual running values ​​with the preset default values, and thus determine the running values ​​of the startup module and the embedded controller. After the startup module has finished running, the operating system can receive a modification instruction to modify the CPU power consumption. The operating system sends the modification instruction to the embedded controller, which can then activate the modification module of the PIS. The modification module can adjust the CPU power consumption according to the modified value.

[0063] When the operating system receives a modification instruction to adjust CPU power consumption, it determines the modification value based on the instruction and sends it to the embedded controller. Upon receiving the modification value, the embedded controller sends it to the basic input / output system (PIS). The PIS then adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modification value. In this embodiment of the invention, when CPU power consumption needs adjustment, the embedded controller sends the modification value to the PIS, which then adjusts the CPU power consumption accordingly. This solves the problem that adjusting CPU performance parameters is required to regulate CPU power consumption, which is time-consuming, complex, and unsuitable for the needs of ordinary users.

[0064] Reference Figure 2 This diagram illustrates a flowchart of another CPU power consumption adjustment method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, applied to a computer. The computer is equipped with an embedded controller, an operating system, and a basic input / output system. The method may specifically include the following steps:

[0065] Step 201: When the operating system receives a modification instruction to modify the CPU power consumption, the operating system determines the modification value of the CPU power consumption according to the modification instruction and sends the modification value to the embedded controller. After the embedded controller receives the modification value, the embedded controller sends the modification value to the basic input / output system.

[0066] Users can send commands to modify CPU power consumption using hotkeys. The operating system can receive these commands, determine the required CPU power consumption value, and send the modified value to the embedded controller. Once the embedded controller receives the modified value, it can send it to the basic input / output system.

[0067] Before receiving user modification instructions, when the computer is started by the user, the embedded controller can operate according to a first preset default value, and the input / output system can operate according to a second preset default value. The input / output system can also obtain the first actual operating value of the embedded controller's CPU power consumption and its own second actual operating value of CPU power consumption. It can also compare the first preset default value with the first actual operating value and the second preset default value with the second actual operating value. If the first actual operating value is consistent with the first preset default value and the second actual operating value is consistent with the second preset default value, the embedded controller can continue to operate according to the first preset default value, and the input / output system can continue to operate according to the second preset default value. If the first actual operating value is inconsistent with the first preset default value and / or the second actual operating value is inconsistent with the second preset default value, the embedded controller can operate according to the first actual operating value, and the input / output system can operate according to the second actual value.

[0068] In this embodiment of the invention, the modification instruction is used to instruct the CPU power consumption to be increased or decreased.

[0069] The operating system can receive modification commands sent by the user and determine the modified value of the CPU power consumption required by the computer based on the modification commands. The modification commands can be to indicate that the CPU power consumption should be increased or decreased.

[0070] In this embodiment of the invention, if the embedded controller does not receive the modified value, the embedded controller operates according to a first preset default value of the CPU power consumption, and the basic input / output system operates according to a second preset default value of the CPU power consumption.

[0071] The embedded controller has a pre-set first default value for CPU power consumption, and the basic input / output system has a pre-set second default value for CPU power consumption. The embedded controller can determine whether it has received a modified value from the operating system. If the embedded controller has received a modified value from the operating system, it can send it to the basic input / output system. If the embedded controller has not received a modified value from the operating system, it can operate according to the pre-set first default value for CPU power consumption, and the basic input / output system can operate according to the pre-set second default value for CPU power consumption.

[0072] In this embodiment of the invention, sending the modified value to the basic input / output system via the embedded controller includes:

[0073] The embedded controller encrypts the modified value according to the encryption algorithm to obtain the encrypted modified value;

[0074] The encrypted modified value is sent to the basic input / output system.

[0075] An encryption algorithm can be set in the embedded controller. After the embedded controller receives the modified value, it can encrypt the modified value using the encryption algorithm to obtain the encrypted modified value. The encrypted modified value can also be sent to the basic input / output system.

[0076] In this embodiment of the invention, the basic input / output system is set with a second preset default value for the CPU power consumption. After sending the encrypted modified value to the basic input / output system, the method further includes:

[0077] The basic input / output system receives the encrypted modified value sent by the embedded controller and determines whether the encrypted modified value is consistent with the second preset default value;

[0078] If the encrypted modified value is consistent with the second preset default value, then the basic input / output system operates according to the second preset default value;

[0079] The basic input / output system adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modified value, including:

[0080] If the encrypted modified value is inconsistent with the second preset default value, the basic input / output system adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modified value.

[0081] After the basic input / output system receives the encrypted modified value sent by the embedded controller, the basic input / output system can determine whether the encrypted modified value is consistent with the second preset default value. If the encrypted modified value is consistent with the second preset default value, it means that there is no need to adjust the CPU power consumption, and the basic input / output system can run the system normally according to the second preset default value. If the encrypted modified value is inconsistent with the second preset default value, the step of "the basic input / output system adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modified value" can be performed.

[0082] Step 202: The basic input / output system adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modified value.

[0083] The basic input / output system can receive modified values ​​sent by the embedded controller, and then adjust the CPU power consumption according to the modified values, adjusting the CPU power consumption to the modified values.

[0084] In this embodiment of the invention, the basic input / output system includes a special function library, and the basic input / output system adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modified value, including:

[0085] The CPU power consumption is adjusted to the modified value using functions in the special function library.

[0086] The basic input / output system may include a special function library, which may include at least one function. After the basic input / output system receives a modified value, it may call the special function library and use the function in the special function library to adjust the CPU power consumption to the modified value.

[0087] Step 203: The basic input / output system determines whether the CPU power consumption has been successfully adjusted; if the CPU power consumption has been successfully adjusted, it runs according to the adjusted CPU power consumption; if the CPU power consumption has not been successfully adjusted, it returns to the step of determining the modified value of the CPU power consumption according to the modification instruction when the operating system receives the modification instruction to modify the CPU power consumption.

[0088] After the basic input / output system has adjusted the CPU power consumption, it can be determined whether the CPU power consumption adjustment was successful. If the CPU power consumption adjustment was successful, the basic input / output system can run according to the adjusted CPU power consumption. If the CPU power consumption adjustment was unsuccessful, it can return to step 201 and readjust the CPU power consumption according to the modification instructions.

[0089] When the operating system receives a modification instruction to adjust CPU power consumption, it determines the modification value based on the instruction and sends it to the embedded controller. Upon receiving the modification value, the embedded controller sends it to the basic input / output system (PIS). The PIS then adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modification value. In this embodiment of the invention, when CPU power consumption needs adjustment, the embedded controller sends the modification value to the PIS, which then adjusts the CPU power consumption accordingly. This solves the problem that adjusting CPU performance parameters is required to regulate CPU power consumption, which is time-consuming, complex, and unsuitable for the needs of ordinary users.

[0090] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the embodiments of the present invention, an example is provided below to illustrate the embodiments of the present invention: Refer to Figure 3 The flowchart of a CPU power consumption adjustment method provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown;

[0091] First, the operating system receives the instruction to modify the CPU power consumption, determines the modified value of the CPU power consumption, and sends the modified value to the embedded controller.

[0092] Secondly, the embedded controller can determine whether it has received a modified value. If the embedded controller has not received a modified value, it can operate according to the first preset default value of the CPU power consumption, and the basic input / output system can operate according to the second preset default value of the CPU power consumption.

[0093] If the embedded controller receives a modified value, it can encrypt the modified value using an encryption algorithm and then send the encrypted modified value to the basic input / output system. The basic input / output system can determine whether the modified value corresponding to the encrypted value is consistent with the second preset default value. If they are consistent, the basic input / output system can operate according to the second preset default value. If they are inconsistent, the basic input / output system can adjust the CPU power consumption to the modified value according to the function in the special function library. It can also determine whether the CPU power consumption adjustment is successful. If it is, the basic input / output system can operate according to the modified CPU power consumption. If not, it can return to the step of "the operating system receives the modification instruction to modify the CPU power consumption".

[0094] It should be noted that, for the sake of simplicity, the method embodiments are all described as a series of actions. However, those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the described order of actions, because according to the embodiments of the present invention, some steps can be performed in other orders or simultaneously.

The computer is equipped with an embedded controller 303, an operating system 302, and a basic input / output system 301.

[0096] When the operating system 302 receives a modification instruction to modify the CPU power consumption, it determines the modification value of the CPU power consumption according to the modification instruction and sends the modification value to the embedded controller 303. After the embedded controller 303 receives the modification value, it sends the modification value to the basic input / output system 301.

[0097] The basic input / output system 301 is used to adjust the CPU power consumption according to the processed modified value.

[0098] Optionally, when the embedded controller 303 does not receive the modified value, it operates according to a first preset default value of the CPU power consumption, and the basic input / output system 301 operates according to a second preset default value of the CPU power consumption.

[0099] Optionally, the embedded controller 303 encrypts the modified value according to the encryption algorithm to obtain the encrypted modified value; and sends the encrypted modified value to the basic input / output system 301.

[0100] Optionally, the basic input / output system 301 receives the encrypted modified value sent by the embedded controller 303 and determines whether the encrypted modified value is consistent with the second preset default value; if the encrypted modified value is consistent with the second preset default value, the basic input / output system 301 operates according to the second preset default value; if the encrypted modified value is inconsistent with the second preset default value, the basic input / output system 301 adjusts the CPU power consumption according to the modified value.

[0101] Optionally, the basic input / output system 301 determines whether the CPU power consumption has been successfully adjusted; if the CPU power consumption has been successfully adjusted, it runs according to the adjusted CPU power consumption; if the CPU power consumption has not been successfully adjusted, it returns to the step of determining the modified value of the CPU power consumption according to the modification instruction when the operating system 302 receives the modification instruction to modify the CPU power consumption.

[0102] Optionally, the modification instruction is used to instruct the CPU power consumption to be increased or decreased.

[0103] Optionally, the basic input / output system 301 includes a special function library, and the basic input / output system 301 adjusts the CPU power consumption to the modified value through functions in the special function library.
