Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of computers, and in particular, to a process hot upgrade method and device, a storage medium and an electronic device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The process hot upgrade can make the process upgrade without restarting, and is suitable for modularized processes in the form of dynamic libraries. The traditional process hot upgrade method is applied to single machine or single board environment, and does not consider the hot migration scenario. In the hot migration scenario, the main board continuously backs up the memory data of the process and synchronizes it to the backup board. When the main board fails, the backup board recovers the process using the backup memory data and goes online. If the main board process has been hot upgraded, the backup board cannot recover the process, causing the hot migration to be interrupted.

[0003] The traditional process hot upgrade method is suitable for single machine or single board environment, and does not consider the process hot upgrade in the hot migration scenario, which can cause inconsistency between the main and backup environments and result in interruption of the hot migration process.

[0028] Example implementations are now described with reference to the drawings. Example implementations can, however, be implemented in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these implementations are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the gist of the example implementations to those skilled in the art. The features, structures, or characteristics described can be combined in one or more implementations in any suitable manner.

[0029] In addition, the drawings are to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive; identical reference numerals have been used, where possible, to denote identical or similar features, and thus repetition of the description thereof will be omitted. Some of the blocks in the drawings are functional blocks, and thus can not necessarily correspond to physical or logical entities. These functional blocks can be implemented in software, hardware, or a combination thereof, in one or more hardware or integrated circuit devices, or in different network and / or processor devices and / or microcontroller devices.

[0030] For ease of understanding, the following first explains several terms related to the present disclosure as follows:

[0031] Process: Process is a running activity of a program on a certain data collection in a computer, is a basic unit of system resource allocation and scheduling, and is the basis of operating system structure. In the early process-oriented computer structure, process is the basic execution entity of program; in the contemporary thread-oriented computer structure, process is the container of thread. Program refers to the description of instructions, data and their organization form, and process is the entity of program.

[0032] Hot upgrade: on the premise that the program / service does not stop, the purpose of function upgrade is achieved by increasing, modifying and deleting related function modules.

[0033] Hot migration: process hot migration.

[0034] Dynamic library: Dynamic Link Library, abbreviated as DLL, refers to dynamic link library. Using dynamic link library can more easily apply updates to each module without affecting other parts of the program. Dynamic link library file is a non-executable binary program file that allows programs to share code and other resources necessary to perform special tasks.

[0035] Modular: Module, is a way to deal with complex system decomposition into better manageable modules. Modularization is used to divide, organize and package software. Each module completes a specific sub-function, all modules are assembled in a certain way, become a whole, complete the function required by the whole system.

[0036] Enable: Enable is responsible for the input and output of control signals. It is a "permission" signal, the feed enable is the signal that allows the feed, that is, the motor can only rotate when the feed enable signal is valid. Some commands in network equipment are in the state of closing, so it is necessary to modify the enable (that is, open) to make it normal use. For example, the computer motherboard needs to open some functions, so it needs to enable it.

[0037] Full backup: full backup, refers to the full backup of all data at a certain point in time, including system and all data. This backup method needs to perform a full backup of the system and all data every time. As above, if there is no change in data between two backups, the data of the two backups is the same. That is, 100GB of data will consume 100GB of storage space to do backup even if there is no data change. But the biggest advantage of this backup method is that when restoring lost data, only one complete backup needs to be operated to restore the lost data, greatly speeding up the system or data recovery time.

[0038] The present example embodiment will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0039] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of an exemplary system architecture of a process hot upgrade method or process hot upgrade device that can be applied to the embodiments of the present disclosure is shown.

[0040] As Figure 1 shown, the system architecture 100 can include a mainboard 101, a backup board 102, and a network 103.

[0041] The network 103 is a medium for providing a communication link between the mainboard 101 and the backup board 102, which can be a wired network or a wireless network.

[0042] Optionally, the wireless network or wired network described above uses standard communication techniques and / or protocols. The network is typically the Internet, but can also be any network, including, but not limited to, a Local Area Network (LAN), a Metropolitan Area Network (MAN), a Wide Area Network (WAN), a mobile, wired or wireless network, a private network, or any combination of the above networks. In some embodiments, techniques and / or formats including Hyper Text Mark-up Language (HTML), Extensible Markup Language (XML), and the like are used to represent data exchanged over the network. In addition, all or some links can be encrypted using conventional encryption technologies such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL), Transport Layer Security (TLS), Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), Internet Protocol Security (IPsec), and the like. In other embodiments, custom and / or proprietary data communications technologies can be employed in place of, or in addition to, the above techniques and technologies.

[0043] Those skilled in the art can know that, Figure 1 The number of master boards and backup boards in the master board and backup board is only illustrative, and can have any number of master boards and backup boards according to actual needs. The embodiments of the disclosure do not limit this.

[0044] In Figure 1 Under the system architecture shown in FIG. 1, the embodiments of the disclosure provide a process hot upgrade method applied to a master board, which can be executed by any electronic device with computing processing capability.

[0045] Figure 2 A flow chart of a process hot upgrade method applied to a master board in the embodiments of the disclosure is shown in FIG. 2, which includes the following steps: Figure 2 The process hot upgrade method provided in the embodiments of the disclosure is applied to a master board and includes the following steps:

[0046] Step S202, receiving a hot upgrade command, wherein the hot upgrade command is used to replace and load the to-be-upgraded process by using a dynamic library.

[0047] Step S204, detecting the process state of the to-be-upgraded process according to the hot upgrade command.

[0048] Step S206, when the to-be-upgraded process is in the backup data state, the control to-be-upgraded process closes the switching switch, and uses the dynamic library replacement and loading method to perform hot upgrading on the to-be-upgraded process.

[0049] Step S208, after the mainboard performs hot upgrading on the to-be-upgraded process, sends a hot upgrading command to the backup board, so that the backup board upgrades the to-be-upgraded process according to the hot upgrading command.

[0050] For S202, in an embodiment, the mainboard can receive a hot upgrading command of a process, and the hot upgrading command can be to use the dynamic library replacement and loading method to perform hot upgrading on the to-be-upgraded process without stopping running.

[0051] For example, the mainboard and the backup board can include: a to-be-upgraded process A (for the sake of distinction, the to-be-upgraded process A running on the backup board is denoted as A'), a new dynamic library B, and an old dynamic library C. When the mainboard receives a hot upgrading command of the A process, the A process uses the B dynamic library to replace the C dynamic library, and loads the C dynamic library to perform hot upgrading without stopping running.

[0052] To further specifically describe the method of closing the switching switch, in a specific embodiment, the control to-be-upgraded process in the backup data state to close the switching switch, and using the dynamic library replacement and loading method to perform hot upgrading on the to-be-upgraded process can include: controlling the to-be-upgraded process in the backup data state to close the switching switch through a disable signal; and using the dynamic library replacement and loading method to perform hot upgrading on the to-be-upgraded process in the backup data state.

[0053] For example, the running A process is in the backup data state, and after receiving the disable signal, the A process closes the switching switch, and then uses the dynamic library replacement method to perform hot upgrading on the to-be-upgraded process in the backup data state.

[0054] To further specifically describe the method of hot upgrading, in a specific embodiment, the hot upgrading command can include: a process identifier of the to-be-upgraded process and dynamic library information; and using the dynamic library replacement and loading method to perform hot upgrading on the to-be-upgraded process in the backup data state can include: obtaining the process identifier of the to-be-upgraded process and the dynamic library information; and replacing a first dynamic library of the to-be-upgraded process with a second dynamic library according to the process identifier of the to-be-upgraded process and the dynamic library information, wherein the first dynamic library is a dynamic library before process upgrading, and the second dynamic library is a dynamic library after process upgrading.

[0055] For example, the hot upgrade command can include: a process identifier A of the A process, and information C of the C dynamic library; and the hot upgrade of the process in the backup data state by using the dynamic library replacement and loading can include: obtaining the process identifier A of the A process and the dynamic library information C; and replacing the first dynamic library (B dynamic library) of the A process with the second dynamic library (C dynamic library) and loading the second dynamic library (C dynamic library) according to the process identifier A of the A process and the dynamic library information C.

[0056] For S204, in an embodiment, the mainboard can detect the current process state of the A process according to the hot upgrade command.

[0057] For S206, in an embodiment, when the A process is in the backup data state, the A process can be controlled to close the switch and the hot upgrade of the process to be upgraded can be performed by using the dynamic library replacement and loading.

[0058] For S208, in an embodiment, after the mainboard performs the hot upgrade on the A process, the hot upgrade command can be sent to the backup board, and the backup board can perform the upgrade on the process to be upgraded according to the hot upgrade command.

[0059] For example, the backup board includes the A' process to be upgraded, and after the mainboard performs the hot upgrade on the A process, the mainboard sends the hot upgrade command to the backup board, and the backup board performs the upgrade on the A' process according to the hot upgrade command. The backup board is upgraded to the ordinary upgrade of replacing the dynamic library, and the mainboard is the hot upgrade of replacing and loading the dynamic library.

[0060] In order to keep the mainboard and the backup board consistent after the hot upgrade, in an embodiment, after the hot upgrade command is sent to the backup board to make the backup board perform the hot upgrade on the process to be upgraded according to the hot upgrade command, the data backup of the mainboard and the backup board can be performed by using the process after the hot upgrade.

[0061] For example, after the hot upgrade command is sent to the backup board and the backup board performs the hot upgrade on the A' process according to the hot upgrade command, the mainboard and the backup board perform the full backup.

[0062] It should be noted that the above figures are only schematic illustrations of the processes included in the method according to the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, and are not for limiting purposes. It is easy to understand that the processes shown in the above figures do not indicate or limit the time sequence of the processes. In addition, it is also easy to understand that the processes can be executed synchronously or asynchronously, for example, in multiple modules.

[0063] Figure 3 A flow chart of a process hot upgrade method applied to a backup board in an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown in FIG. 6. Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 6, the process hot upgrade method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is applied to the backup board and includes the following steps:

[0064] In step S302, the hot upgrade command from the mainboard is received, wherein the hot upgrade command is used for the mainboard to perform hot upgrade on the process to be upgraded by using the dynamic library replacement and loading method; the hot upgrade command is sent after the mainboard performs hot upgrade on the process to be upgraded in the backup data state; and the mainboard is used to control the process to be upgraded in the backup data state to close the switch and perform hot upgrade on the process to be upgraded by using the dynamic library replacement and loading method after receiving the hot upgrade command for performing hot upgrade on the process to be upgraded in the backup data state.

[0065] In step S304, the process to be upgraded is upgraded by using the dynamic library replacement method according to the hot upgrade command.

[0066] For S302, in an embodiment, the mainboard controls the process to be upgraded in the backup data state to close the switch and performs hot upgrade on the process to be upgraded by using the dynamic library replacement and loading method after receiving the hot upgrade command for performing hot upgrade on the process to be upgraded in the backup data state; the mainboard sends the hot upgrade command to the backup board after performing hot upgrade on the process to be upgraded in the backup data state; and the backup board receives the hot upgrade command from the mainboard.

[0067] For example, the mainboard and the backup board can include: a running process A to be upgraded, a new dynamic library B, and an old dynamic library C. The mainboard receives the hot upgrade command for the process A to be upgraded in the backup data state, controls the process A to close the switch, and performs hot upgrade by using the B dynamic library to replace the C dynamic library; and the mainboard sends the hot upgrade command to the backup board after completing the hot upgrade.

[0068] For S304, in an embodiment, the backup board upgrades the process to be upgraded by using the dynamic library replacement method according to the received hot upgrade command.

[0069] For example, the backup board performs hot upgrade on the process A' by using the B dynamic library to replace the C dynamic library according to the hot upgrade command, and completes the upgrade.

[0070] It should be noted that the above-described figures are only schematic illustrations of the processes included in the method according to the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, and are not for the purpose of limitation. It is easy to understand that the processes shown in the above-described figures do not indicate or limit the time sequence of the processes. In addition, it is also easy to understand that the processes can be executed synchronously or asynchronously, for example, in multiple modules.

[0091] Figure 7 A flowchart of a process hot upgrade method in an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown in FIG. 3. As shown in FIG. 3, the flowchart of a specific example of the process hot upgrade method comprises: Figure 7

[0092] 1. Before hot upgrade starts, the main board and the backup board already contain new dynamic libraries for upgrade.

[0093] 2. The receiving command module of the main board receives a process hot upgrade command, wherein the hot upgrade command contains corresponding process number and dynamic library information.​​​

[0094] 3. The detection state module of the mainboard detects the corresponding process state, detects whether all processes requiring hot upgrade are normally running and normally backed up.

[0095] 4. If the upgrade condition is met, continue to execute; otherwise, end the hot upgrade process.

[0096] 5. The mainboard executes a de- enabled switching service to prevent switching during the hot upgrade process.

[0097] 6. The hot upgrade module of the mainboard performs hot upgrade on the specified process, and replaces and loads the dynamic library during the process running.

[0098] 7. The mainboard sends a dynamic library replacement command to the backup board, and the backup board replacement module replaces the dynamic library of the specified process.
