Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of computer technology, and in particular to a peripheral adaptation method, computer equipment and medium for product verification. Background Art

[0002] With the development of technologies such as integrated circuits and the Internet of Things, various peripherals are integrated into an electronic product and coordinated through the main control system and chips to achieve rich functions. Common peripherals include but are not limited to display screens, cameras, external storage devices such as flash memory, etc. In order to ensure the normal function of the product, debugging is performed through software coding and the software version is burned for verification. However, there are many different main control systems on the market, such as common operating systems such as Android, Linux, Ubuntu, etc. In the prior art, the version release, verification and documentation in the product development process are designed according to different operating system versions. The final software opening, testing and delivery need to be compiled and verified in different operating systems, which leads to a large workload and a long verification time, and leads to low efficiency in peripheral replacement and product upgrades.

[0003] To this end, the present application provides a peripheral adaptation method, computer device and medium for product verification, which are used to address the technical difficulties in the prior art. Summary of the invention

[0004] In the first aspect, the present application provides a peripheral device adaptation method for product verification. The peripheral device adaptation method includes: generating a peripheral device parameter document associated with the product to be verified, wherein the peripheral device parameter document includes the device type, model and device parameter fields of each of the multiple peripherals, and the peripherals with the same device type in the multiple peripherals each have different input and output states, and different input and output states are distinguished by different input and output state identifiers; storing and maintaining the peripheral device parameter document through device parameter partitions of a system-on-chip hardware system, the main control system of the system-on-chip hardware system is stored in the main control system partition of the system-on-chip hardware system and the operation of the main control system is through the main control system partition and the system memory partition of the system-on-chip hardware system. area to be executed, the device parameter partition is isolated from the main control system partition and also from the system memory partition; in response to the verification of the product to be verified based on the first product specification under the main control system, at least before the software used to verify the product to be verified is started, the peripheral device parameter document in the device parameter partition is parsed to determine the device type, model and device parameter field of one or more peripherals corresponding to the first product specification, and selectively determine the input and output status of each peripheral with the same device type among the one or more peripherals, thereby obtaining a first parsing result, and then using the first parsing result to initialize the peripheral parameters for verifying the product to be verified.

[0005] Through the first aspect of the present application, the management of peripheral device parameter documents is decoupled from the main control system. In various links of the product to be verified, such as peripheral import verification, R&D debugging, version release and product specification upgrade, the peripheral device parameter documents are managed independently of the main control system, which can give full play to the advantage of completing the key work of debugging and verification after hardware selection; it does not rely on a certain main control system or any peripheral type, and decouples the update and management of peripheral device parameters from specific platforms and products, effectively overcoming the drawbacks of large workload and long time consumption of product verification solutions designed around the main control system, which is conducive to adding new peripherals or replacing existing peripherals, and is also conducive to promoting and replicating products. Product verification solution; it saves the participation of multiple departments and manpower investment. By filling in peripheral parameters and burning them to the product to achieve power-on verification, it also saves the workload of software compilation version and document update. The document no longer needs to be updated for each operating system. Only an independent peripheral support list needs to be updated. Different types of operating systems share the same support list. By greatly reducing the time and manpower investment for product verification, the speed of product promotion is increased, the learning cost of downstream manufacturers switching between different products is reduced, and the risk of peripheral upgrades is reduced. Only the device parameter partition needs to be updated, which also reduces the risk of the product being completely unusable and needing to be returned to the factory for repair due to problems such as freezing or upgrade failure during the upgrade process.

[0014] In a possible implementation manner of the first aspect of the present application, the device type is a display device, a camera device, a storage device, or a network device.

[0015] In a possible implementation of the first aspect of the present application, verification of the product to be verified based on the first product specification under the main control system is applied to the development and testing phase, debugging phase, product upgrade phase or document update phase of the product to be verified.

[0025] The embodiments of the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0026] It should be understood that, in the description of this application, "at least one" means one or more, and "a plurality of" means two or more. In addition, unless otherwise specified, the words "first", "second", etc. are only used for the purpose of distinguishing descriptions, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance, nor can they be understood as indicating or implying an order.

[0027] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an application scenario including multiple main control systems and multiple peripherals. Figure 1 As shown, the three main control systems are main control system A102, main control system B104 and main control system C106. Electronic product developers may use a variety of different main control systems, such as common operating systems such as Android, Linux, Ubuntu, etc. Various peripherals can be integrated on different main control systems. Common peripherals include but are not limited to display screens, cameras, external storage devices such as flash memory, etc. In order to ensure that the main control system and various peripherals integrated in the product can operate normally, it is necessary to debug through software coding. It may also be necessary to compile firmware through software and burn it into the product, so as to achieve the corresponding binding of software parameters and products, and ensure that various peripherals work properly. In such as Figure 1 The application scenarios of the various main control systems and multiple peripherals shown, each main control system may have its own characteristics, so the corresponding peripheral combinations may be different. For example, one main control system may be suitable for edge computing, portable smart terminal devices and other scenarios, so it tends to integrate peripherals with low energy consumption and long standby time to build electronic products. Another main control system may be suitable for data centers, artificial intelligence large models and other scenarios, so it tends to integrate peripherals with good performance and large storage space to build electronic products. Therefore, the various main control systems may correspond to different peripheral combinations, and the final product specifications of the electronic products are determined by the main control system used and the integrated peripherals. Figure 1, the peripheral combination corresponding to the main control system A102 includes display peripheral A110, camera peripheral A120 and display peripheral B112; examples of product specifications of electronic products using the main control system A102 include product specification A180 including the main control system A102, display peripheral A110, camera peripheral A120, and product specification B181 including the main control system A102, display peripheral B112, and camera peripheral A120. The peripheral combination corresponding to the main control system B104 includes display peripheral C114, camera peripheral B122, and display peripheral D116; examples of product specifications of electronic products using the main control system B104 include product specification C182 including the main control system B104, display peripheral C114, camera peripheral B122, and product specification D183 including the main control system B104, display peripheral D116, and camera peripheral B122. The peripheral combination corresponding to the main control system C106 includes display peripheral A110, camera peripheral B122, and display peripheral E118; examples of product specifications of electronic products using the main control system C106 include product specification E184 including the main control system C106, display peripheral A110, and camera peripheral B122, and product specification F185 including the main control system C106, display peripheral E118, and camera peripheral B122. It can be seen that in order to be able to run different operating systems and be compatible with different main control systems at the same time, as well as taking into account various peripheral combinations, Figure 1 6 product specifications are shown in the figure. Therefore, if the version release, verification and documentation in the product development process are designed according to different operating system versions, the final software development, testing and delivery team needs to compile and verify in three operating systems respectively, and update the product documentation. If the software is written to compile the corresponding 6 versions and burn 6 software versions for verification, this will lead to a large workload and time-consuming in each link of peripheral import verification, R&D debugging, version release and product specification upgrade.

[0028] Continue reading Figure 1It can be seen that among the various product specifications, a considerable number of peripherals are repeated. For example, product specification A180 includes main control system A102, display peripheral A110, and camera peripheral A120, and product specification E184 includes main control system C106, display peripheral A110, and camera peripheral B122. For example, display peripheral A110 can be a 7-inch display screen with a mobile device processor interface (MIPI), camera peripheral A120 is a camera with a resolution of 1080P, and camera peripheral B122 is a camera with a resolution of 720P. In addition, in the peripheral combination corresponding to the same main control system, there may be peripherals of the same peripheral type but different models. For example, the peripheral combination corresponding to the main control system A102 includes display peripheral A110, camera peripheral A120, and display peripheral B112. The display peripheral A110 can be a 7-inch display screen with MPI, and the display peripheral B112 can be a 24-inch display screen with a low voltage differential signaling interface (LVDS). Therefore, from the essence of peripheral debugging, debugging and verification after hardware selection have completed the key work. However, if the software version of each link is designed according to different main control systems such as operating system versions, from peripheral import, R&D debugging, version release to product specification upgrade, this will lead to the investment of multiple departments and manpower, and lead to compilation, version release, and verification after burning on different main control systems and operating systems. This product verification method based on software compilation and debugging designed around the main control system, although it ensures that each peripheral including the newly added peripherals can work stably when the operating system running on the main control system is different, it leads to a lot of duplication of work and inefficiency in peripheral replacement and product upgrade. For example, if the hardware selection determines that a certain peripheral needs to be added, after adding the new peripheral, the hardware and software are jointly debugged and verified. The software writes the code for the verified parameters separately. If there is Figure 1The 6 product specifications shown need to compile 6 versions. The testing team will burn 6 software versions for verification. Finally, the delivery team will update the peripheral support list of the product in different operating systems. It can be seen that if a new peripheral is added to an electronic product, such as adding a storage peripheral, the product verification solution designed around the main control system requires the participation of software development, hardware, delivery support and other departments, and the workload is large and time-consuming. To this end, the embodiment of the present application provides a product verification solution that is decoupled from the main control system. On the basis of effectively overcoming the various drawbacks of the above-mentioned product verification solution designed around the main control system, it provides a reliable verification method to ensure that the main control system, various peripherals and software can work stably and normally, and also tries to save the workload of code compilation, debugging and maintenance documents in various links such as peripheral import verification, R&D debugging, version release and product specification upgrade. The following is combined with Figure 2 Detailed description.

[0029] Figure 2 A flowchart of a peripheral device adaptation method for product verification provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the peripheral device adaptation method includes the following steps.

[0030] Step S210: Generate a peripheral device parameter document associated with the product to be verified, wherein the peripheral device parameter document includes the device type, model and device parameter fields of each of the multiple peripherals, and the peripherals with the same device type among the multiple peripherals each have different input and output states, and different input and output states are distinguished by different input and output state identifiers.

[0031] Step S220: The peripheral device parameter document is stored and maintained through the device parameter partition of the system-on-chip hardware system. The main control system of the system-on-chip hardware system is stored in the main control system partition of the system-on-chip hardware system and the operation of the main control system is executed through the main control system partition and the system memory partition of the system-on-chip hardware system. The device parameter partition is isolated from the main control system partition and the system memory partition.

[0032] Step S230: In response to the verification of the product to be verified based on the first product specification under the main control system, at least before the software used to verify the product to be verified is started, the peripheral device parameter document in the device parameter partition is parsed to determine the device type, model and device parameter field of one or more peripherals corresponding to the first product specification, and selectively determine the input and output status of each peripheral with the same device type among the one or more peripherals, so as to obtain a first parsing result, and then use the first parsing result to initialize the peripheral parameters for verifying the product to be verified.

[0033] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 The peripheral adaptation method for product verification shown can be applied to different links of electronic products, such as peripheral import verification, R&D debugging, version release, and product specification upgrade. An electronic product integrates various peripherals and coordinates various peripherals through the main control system and chip to achieve rich functions. Common peripherals include but are not limited to display screens, cameras, external storage devices such as flash memory, etc. In order to ensure that the main control system and various peripherals integrated in the product can operate normally, it is necessary not only to consider the requirements of the operating system adopted by the main control system, but also to consider that the product manufacturer may have formulated a specific software design scheme and main control system operation scheme for its own products, and to consider the software parameter requirements of various different peripherals (such as peripheral drive requirements, connection requirements, etc.), and also to consider changes in product specifications such as adding new peripherals or replacing existing peripherals, etc. For this reason, reliable verification means are needed to ensure that the main control system, various peripherals and software can work stably and normally together. In step S210, a peripheral device parameter document associated with the product to be verified is generated. The peripheral device parameter document includes the device type, model and device parameter fields of each of the multiple peripherals. The peripherals with the same device type in the multiple peripherals each have different input and output states, and different input and output states are distinguished by different input and output state identifiers. Here, the product to be verified refers to an electronic product that needs to verify the normal operation of the main control system, various peripherals and software. The product to be verified may need to be compatible with a variety of different main control systems, a variety of different operating systems and various peripherals, such as Figure 16 product specifications shown. The product verification scheme designed around the main control system has various drawbacks. For example, the software version of each link is designed according to different main control systems such as operating system versions, from peripheral import, R&D debugging, version release to product specification upgrade, which will lead to the investment of multiple departments and manpower, and lead to compilation, version release, burning and power-on verification on different main control systems and operating systems. Here, in step S210, the peripheral information and device parameters are extracted, for example, the peripherals that often need to be debugged and replaced are classified and summarized, such as the listed peripherals are divided into three categories: MIPI display screen, camera, LVDS display screen, etc. In this way, the peripheral device parameter document associated with the product to be verified is generated, which means that the possible peripheral combinations corresponding to the product to be verified are classified and summarized, and organized into a specific data format, that is, the peripheral device parameter document includes the device type, model and device parameter field of each of the multiple peripherals. The device type is used to indicate the type of peripheral device such as display peripheral, storage peripheral, camera peripheral. The model is used to indicate the specific device model, such as a camera with a 1080P resolution, a camera with a 720P resolution, a 7-inch display with MPI, and a 24-inch display with LVDS. The device parameter field is used to provide customized requirements for peripheral devices, such as operating voltage, operating power, peak voltage, peak power, data bandwidth, communication protocol, etc. Here, multiple peripherals may have the same device type. This is to take into account that the product specifications of electronic products in actual applications may use multiple displays, multiple cameras, and multiple storage peripherals. For example Figure 1 The peripheral combination corresponding to the main control system A102 shown includes a display peripheral A110, a camera peripheral A120 and a display peripheral B112. The peripherals with the same device type in the plurality of peripherals each have different input and output states, and different input and output states are distinguished by different input and output state identifiers. This means that, among the plurality of peripherals, regardless of whether they have the same device type or different device types, each peripheral is treated separately, and each peripheral records the peripheral information of the peripheral according to a specific data structure, so as to parse the peripheral information and initialize it using the parsed parameters. In addition, different input and output states are distinguished by different input and output state identifiers, and then the peripherals with the same device type are distinguished. In this way, in the subsequent process, if there are two or more sets of the same type of peripheral parameters, the input and output states are additionally read, and the records matching the input and output states are selected for indexing to find the corresponding peripheral parameters.

[0034] Continue reading Figure 2, after step S210, execute step S220. In step S220, the peripheral device parameter document is stored and maintained through the device parameter partition of the system-on-chip hardware system, the main control system of the system-on-chip hardware system is stored in the main control system partition of the system-on-chip hardware system and the operation of the main control system is executed through the main control system partition and the system memory partition of the system-on-chip hardware system, and the device parameter partition is isolated from the main control system partition and also from the system memory partition. In this way, partition isolation helps to ensure decoupling from the main control system, and helps to ensure that the storage and maintenance of the peripheral device parameter document is independent of the operation of the main control system, for example, the burning, erasing and updating of the operating system will not affect the device parameter partition. Furthermore, the operation of the main control system is executed through the main control system partition and the system memory partition of the system-level chip hardware system. This means that while maintaining the normal operation of the main control system and data business processing, the device parameter partition can be modified without affecting the normal operation of the current business. This helps to import the peripheral information that needs to be debugged and the parameters changed into the peripheral device parameter document in the device parameter partition in advance, so that the peripheral adaptation can be performed during the business gap after the current business ends, thereby improving overall efficiency.

[0035] Continue reading Figure 2, after step S220, execute step S230. In step S230, in response to the verification of the product to be verified based on the first product specification under the main control system, at least before the software for verifying the product to be verified is started, the peripheral device parameter document in the device parameter partition is parsed to determine the device type, model and device parameter field of one or more peripherals corresponding to the first product specification, and selectively determine the input and output status of the peripherals with the same device type in the one or more peripherals, thereby obtaining a first parsing result, and then using the first parsing result to initialize the peripheral parameters for verifying the product to be verified. In step S210, a peripheral device parameter document associated with the product to be verified is generated, which means that the possible peripheral combinations corresponding to the product to be verified are classified and summarized, and organized into a specific data format, and different input and output statuses are distinguished by different input and output status identifiers to distinguish peripherals with the same device type. In step S220, partition isolation is used to ensure that the storage and maintenance of the peripheral device parameter document are independent of the operation of the main control system, thereby achieving the decoupling of the management of the peripheral device parameter document from the main control system. In this way, in various links of the product to be verified, such as peripheral import verification, R&D debugging, version release, and product specification upgrade, by managing the peripheral device parameter document independently of the main control system, the advantage of completing the key work by debugging and verification after hardware selection can be fully utilized. By retaining the device parameter partition of the system-on-chip hardware system as a reserved storage area for storing and maintaining the peripheral device parameter document, the peripheral adaptation work can be decoupled from the main control system, the parameters that need to be repeatedly debugged can be extracted and handed over to the hardware for independent debugging, and the test results of a single product can be equivalent to other products. Here, in step S230, there may be multiple product specifications for the product to be verified to meet different user needs and design specifications. For example, Figure 1The product specification A180 and product specification B181 shown both use the main control system A102 but use different peripheral components. In response to the verification of the product to be verified based on the first product specification under the main control system, the peripheral information stored in the device parameter partition is read in advance during the software startup process, and each type of peripheral parameters is parsed separately. If there are two or more sets of the same type of peripheral parameters, the input and output status is additionally read, and the records matching the input and output status are selected for indexing to find the corresponding peripheral parameters. When the peripheral needs to be initialized, the parsed parameters are directly used for initialization. In other words, in response to the verification of the product to be verified based on the first product specification under the main control system, at least before the software for verifying the product to be verified is started, the peripheral device parameter document in the device parameter partition is parsed to determine the device type, model and device parameter field of one or more peripherals corresponding to the first product specification, and selectively determine the input and output status of each peripheral with the same device type among the one or more peripherals, thereby obtaining a first parsing result, and then, the first parsing result is used to initialize the peripheral parameters for verifying the product to be verified. Here, one or more peripherals corresponding to the first product specification are determined based on the first product specification. Other product specifications of the product to be verified may correspond to different peripheral combinations. The peripheral combinations corresponding to other product specifications can be determined by executing step S230 again and obtaining the corresponding analysis results, and then the analysis results corresponding to other product specifications can be used to parameterize the peripherals, thereby ensuring that the main control system, peripherals and software under other product specifications work stably together. In this way, by partitioning and isolating and ensuring that the storage and maintenance of the peripheral device parameter document are independent of the operation of the main control system, the peripheral device parameter document can be used to flexibly adapt to the different product specifications of the product to be verified. The software can only compile one product version and test and verify it. The solution can be copied to other main control systems, and each main control system selects a product version for test and verification. In this way, the peripheral device parameter document, as a peripheral support document, is not bound to the operating system, but is independently managed separately. For different main control systems, only the peripheral device parameter document needs to be updated to complete the entire product verification solution.

[0036] Figure 2The peripheral device adaptation method for product verification shown provides a peripheral device parameter document for each main control system, and through partition isolation and ensuring that the storage and maintenance of the peripheral device parameter document is independent of the operation of the main control system, the management of the peripheral device parameter document is decoupled from the main control system. By retaining the device parameter partition of the system-level chip hardware system as a reserved storage area for storing and maintaining the peripheral device parameter document, the peripheral device adaptation work can be decoupled from the main control system, the parameters that need to be repeatedly debugged can be extracted and handed over to the hardware for independent debugging, and the test results of a single product can be equivalent to other products. In addition, different input and output status identifiers are used to distinguish different input and output states and then distinguish peripherals with the same device type. In this way, in the subsequent process, if there are two or more sets of the same type of peripheral parameters, the input and output status is additionally read, and the records matching the input and output status are selected for indexing to find the corresponding peripheral parameters. This means that among multiple peripherals, no matter whether they are of the same device type or different device types, each peripheral is treated individually, and each peripheral records the peripheral information of the peripheral according to a specific data structure, so as to parse the peripheral information later and initialize it using the parsed parameters. In addition, the operation of the main control system is executed through the main control system partition and the system memory partition of the system-on-chip hardware system, which means that while maintaining the normal operation of the main control system and data service processing, the device parameter partition can be modified without affecting the normal operation of the current business. This helps to import the peripheral information that needs to be debugged and the parameters changed into the peripheral device parameter document in the device parameter partition in advance, so that the peripheral adaptation can be performed during the business idle period after the current business ends, thereby improving overall efficiency. In short, Figure 2The peripheral adaptation method for product verification shown in the figure realizes the management of peripheral device parameter documents is decoupled from the main control system. In various links of the product to be verified, such as peripheral import verification, R&D debugging, version release and product specification upgrade, the peripheral device parameter documents are managed independently of the main control system, which can give full play to the advantage that the key work has been completed by debugging and verification after hardware selection; it does not rely on a certain main control system or any peripheral type, and decouples the update and management of peripheral device parameters from specific platforms and products, effectively overcoming the disadvantages of large workload and long time consumption of product verification solutions designed around the main control system, which is conducive to adding new peripherals or replacing existing peripherals, and is also conducive to promotion and Replicate product verification solutions; save the participation of multiple departments and manpower investment, realize power-on verification by filling in peripheral parameters and burning them to the product, and also save the workload of software compilation version and document update. The document no longer needs to be updated for each operating system. Only an independent peripheral support list needs to be updated. Different types of operating systems share the same support list. By greatly reducing the time and manpower investment for product verification, the speed of product promotion is increased, the learning cost of downstream manufacturers switching between different products is reduced, and the risk of peripheral upgrades is reduced. Only the device parameter partition needs to be updated, which also reduces the risk of freezing or upgrade failure during the upgrade process, which makes the product completely unusable and needs to be returned to the factory for repair.

[0037] Figure 3 A reference provided for the embodiments of this application Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the system-on-chip hardware system for the peripheral adaptation method for product verification. Figure 3 As shown, the system-on-chip hardware system 302 includes a main control system partition 303, a system memory partition 304 and a device parameter partition 305. The peripheral device parameter document 310 is stored and maintained through the device parameter partition 305 of the system-on-chip hardware system 302. The main control system of the system-on-chip hardware system 302 is stored in the main control system partition 303 of the system-on-chip hardware system 302, and the operation of the main control system is performed through the main control system partition 303 and the system memory partition 304 of the system-on-chip hardware system 302. The device parameter partition 305 is isolated from the main control system partition 303 and the system memory partition 304. The peripheral device parameter document 310 includes the device type, model and device parameter fields of multiple peripherals, and the peripherals with the same device type among the multiple peripherals have different input and output states, and different input and output states are distinguished by different input and output state identifiers. Figure 3As shown in the figure, the peripheral device parameter document 310 records the possible peripheral combinations corresponding to the main control system of the system-level chip hardware system 302, including peripheral A330 of type A320 with input and output status A351, peripheral B331 of type B322, peripheral C332 of type A320 with input and output status B352, peripheral D333 of type C324, peripheral E334 of type D326, and peripheral F335 of type E328.

[0038] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 It can be seen that the management of peripheral device parameter documents is decoupled from the main control system. In various links of the product to be verified, such as peripheral import verification, R&D debugging, version release and product specification upgrade, the management of peripheral device parameter documents independently of the main control system can give full play to the advantage of completing the key work of debugging and verification after hardware selection; it does not rely on a certain main control system or any peripheral type, and decouples the update and management of peripheral device parameters from specific platforms and products, effectively overcoming the drawbacks of large workload and long time consumption of product verification solutions designed around the main control system, which is conducive to adding new peripherals or replacing existing peripherals, and is also conducive to promoting and replicating product verification. The solution saves the participation of multiple departments and manpower investment. By filling in the peripheral parameters and burning them to the product to achieve power-on verification, it also saves the workload of software compilation version and document update. The document no longer needs to be updated for each operating system. Only an independent peripheral support list needs to be updated. Different types of operating systems share the same support list. By greatly reducing the time and manpower investment for product verification, the speed of product promotion is increased, the learning cost of downstream manufacturers switching between different products is reduced, and the risk of peripheral upgrades is reduced. Only the device parameter partition needs to be updated, which also reduces the risk of the product being completely unusable and needing to be returned to the factory for repair due to problems such as freezing or upgrade failure during the upgrade process.

[0039] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3In a possible implementation, the device parameter partition of the system-on-chip hardware system is used to store and maintain the peripheral device parameter document, including: updating the peripheral device parameter document and storing the updated peripheral device parameter document in the device parameter partition. In this way, by partition isolation, it is ensured that the storage and maintenance of the peripheral device parameter document is independent of the operation of the main control system, thereby achieving the decoupling of the management of the peripheral device parameter document from the main control system. In this way, in various links of the product to be verified, such as peripheral import verification, research and development debugging, version release, and product specification upgrade, by managing the peripheral device parameter document independently of the main control system, the advantage of having completed the key work by debugging and verifying after hardware selection can be fully utilized, and by retaining the device parameter partition of the system-on-chip hardware system as a reserved storage area for storing and maintaining the peripheral device parameter document, the peripheral adaptation work can be decoupled from the main control system, the parameters that need to be repeatedly debugged can be extracted and handed over to the hardware for independent debugging, and the test results of a single product can be equivalent to other products.

[0040] In some embodiments, updating the peripheral device parameter document stored in the device parameter partition is independent of updating the main control system stored in the main control system partition. In this way, the management of the peripheral device parameter document is decoupled from the main control system. In various links of the product to be verified, such as peripheral import verification, R&D debugging, version release, and product specification upgrade, the management of the peripheral device parameter document independently of the main control system can give full play to the advantage of completing the key work of debugging and verification after hardware selection; it does not rely on a certain main control system or any peripheral type, and decouples the update and management of peripheral device parameters from specific platforms and products, effectively overcoming the drawbacks of large workload and long time consumption of product verification solutions designed around the main control system, which is conducive to adding new peripherals or replacing existing peripherals, and is also conducive to promoting and replicating product verification solutions.

[0041] In some embodiments, updating the peripheral device parameter document includes: adding new peripherals or replacing existing peripherals. In this way, the updating and management of peripheral device parameters are decoupled from specific platforms and products, effectively overcoming the drawbacks of large workload and long time consumption of product verification solutions designed around the main control system, which is conducive to adding new peripherals or replacing existing peripherals, and is also conducive to promoting and replicating product verification solutions.

[0042] In some embodiments, the peripheral device parameter document is updated by filling in the field data in a preset form, then generating the updated peripheral device parameter document based on the filled in form, and then burning the updated peripheral device parameter document to the product to be verified. This is conducive to adding new peripherals or replacing existing peripherals, and is also conducive to promoting and replicating product verification solutions; it saves the participation of multiple departments and manpower investment, and realizes power-on verification by filling in peripheral parameters and burning them to the product.

[0043] In a possible implementation, the peripheral adaptation method further includes: in response to the verification of the product to be verified based on the second product specification under the main control system, at least before the software for verifying the product to be verified is started, parsing the peripheral device parameter document in the device parameter partition, thereby determining a second parsing result corresponding to the second product specification, and then using the second parsing result to initialize the peripheral parameters for verifying the product to be verified. Other product specifications of the product to be verified may correspond to different peripheral combinations. By determining the peripheral combinations corresponding to other product specifications and obtaining the corresponding parsing results, and then using the parsing results corresponding to other product specifications to perform peripheral parameterization, it is ensured that the main control system, peripherals and software under other product specifications work stably together. In this way, the participation of multiple departments and manpower investment are saved. By filling in the peripheral parameters and burning them to the product to achieve power-on verification, the workload of software compilation version and document update is also saved. The document no longer needs to be updated for each operating system. Only an independent peripheral support list needs to be updated. Different types of operating systems share the same support list. By greatly reducing the time and manpower investment in product verification, the speed of product promotion is increased, the learning cost of downstream manufacturers switching between different products is reduced, and the risk of peripheral upgrades is reduced. Only the device parameter partition needs to be updated, which also reduces the risk of the product being completely unusable and needing to be returned to the factory for repair due to problems such as freezing or upgrade failure during the upgrade process.

[0044] In a possible implementation, different input and output states are distinguished by different input and output state identifiers, including: no more than four input and output states are distinguished by a two-bit input and output state identifier, or more than four and no more than eight input and output states are distinguished by a three-bit input and output state identifier. Different input and output states are distinguished by different input and output state identifiers, and then peripherals with the same device type are distinguished. In this way, in the subsequent process, if there are two or more sets of the same type of peripheral parameters, the input and output states are additionally read, and the records matching the input and output states are selected for indexing to find the corresponding peripheral parameters. This means that among multiple peripherals, regardless of whether they have the same device type or different device types, each peripheral is treated separately, and each peripheral records the peripheral information of the peripheral according to a specific data structure, so as to parse the peripheral information and initialize it using the parsed parameters.

[0045] In a possible implementation, the peripheral device parameter document stored in the device parameter partition is encrypted to prevent parameter theft or malicious tampering. Thus, by encrypting the peripheral device parameter document stored in the device parameter partition, system stability and security can be more effectively improved.

[0046] In a possible implementation, the device parameter field includes one or more of the following: screen size, whether the screen has a mobile device processor interface, whether the screen has a low voltage differential signal interface, operating voltage, operating frequency, operating bandwidth, peak power, and peak voltage. In this way, a rich customization option for peripheral devices is provided.

[0047] In a possible implementation, the device type is a display device, a camera device, a storage device or a network device, which is helpful for adapting to various peripheral devices.

[0048] In a possible implementation, the verification of the product to be verified based on the first product specification under the main control system is applied to the development and testing phase, debugging phase, product upgrade phase or document update phase of the product to be verified. In this way, the management of the peripheral device parameter document is decoupled from the main control system. In various links of the product to be verified, such as peripheral import verification, R&D debugging, version release and product specification upgrade, the peripheral device parameter document is managed independently of the main control system, which can give full play to the advantage of completing key work by debugging and verification after hardware selection.

[0049] In a possible implementation, there are two peripherals that meet a preset logical relationship among the one or more peripherals, and the device type, model, and device parameter fields of the two peripherals in the first analysis result are determined based on the preset logical relationship, and the preset logical relationship is a master-slave relationship, a mirror relationship, or a parallel relationship. Here, the master-slave relationship means that the peripheral that serves as the master device keeps working under normal circumstances, and the peripheral that serves as the backup device intervenes only when the master device fails to work normally, such as when an upgrade or a failure occurs. Therefore, the two peripherals that meet the master-slave relationship generally maintain consistency in peripheral parameter configuration, that is, the device type, model, and device parameter fields of the two peripherals are determined based on the preset logical relationship. In addition, the mirror relationship also means that the two peripherals that meet the mirror relationship generally maintain consistency in peripheral parameter configuration. In addition, the parallel relationship means that the two peripherals that meet the parallel relationship maintain consistency in some key peripheral parameters, such as data bandwidth. By determining the device type, model, and device parameter fields of the two peripherals that meet the preset logical relationship by the preset logical relationship, it is possible to better adapt to the complex and changeable application scenarios of various peripherals. Further, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, a specially designed data structure is used to sort out the corresponding device types, models, and device parameters, and the device parameters that need to be debugged repeatedly are prepared in advance. Then, the specific peripheral hardware informs which device parameters should be used, thereby realizing peripheral adaptation, which can be applied to simulation verification in the design stage, testing in the production stage, and debugging in the application stage. The search results in the device parameter partition can be used to determine whether the debugging requirements of the current peripheral exceed the range of device parameters prepared in advance. If the search does not hit, it means that the parameters are out of range. In this way, the device parameter partition can be upgraded by adding a new set of device parameters, and new input and output states can be selectively added, which reduces the difficulty of debugging and reuses existing device parameters as much as possible to improve debugging efficiency. In addition, on the basis that the parameters are not out of range, the peripheral adaptation can be better realized based on the logical dependency between devices. For example, the master-slave mode, the mirror mode, etc. generally mean that two sets of peripherals use the same device parameters, multiple sets of peripherals in a parallel processing relationship generally use the same clock frequency to ensure synchronization, and multiple sets of peripherals in a serial pipeline processing relationship generally use the same input data bit width to ensure data throughput efficiency. In this way, the retrieval efficiency can be improved and peripheral adaptation can be better achieved.
