[0001] This application relates to the field of storage technology, and more specifically, to a method, system, device, and computer storage medium for generating silkscreen serial numbers. Background Technology

[0002] During server operation, to manage hard drives, it's crucial to ensure that the user's hard drive numbering matches the server's. For example, the server's BIOS (Basic Input Output System) can enumerate the hard drives, and the user can then modify the hard drive order to match the silkscreen order on the chassis. However, this method requires custom-designed server hard drive cables, resulting in low cable reuse rates, unchangeable configurations, and poor flexibility in generating silkscreen serial numbers.

[0003] In conclusion, how to flexibly generate silkscreen serial numbers is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0062] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0063] Please refer to Figure 1, which is a flowchart of a silkscreen serial number generation method provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0064] This application provides a silkscreen serial number generation method, applied to a basic input / output system, which may include the following steps:

[0065] Step S101: Obtain the initial silkscreen position information generated after enumerating the processing unit ports of the server.

[0066] In practical applications, the BIOS enumerates the processing unit ports (PE Ports) of a server according to a predefined enumeration order. To ensure that the BIOS enumeration order remains unchanged, this application requires generating silkscreen serial numbers based on the enumeration results after the BIOS completes the enumeration. This means obtaining the initial silkscreen location information generated after enumerating the server's processing unit ports. The initial silkscreen location information records the location information of the enumerated hard drive. This information can consist of the CPU (Central Processing Unit) number, the processing unit port number, and the hard drive's position on the processing unit port. For example, the type of the initial silkscreen location information could be CPU1_PE1_EF, indicating that the hard drive is located at port EF of PE1 in CPU1. The relationship between the CPU and PE, and the port division method on the PE, can be flexibly determined according to actual needs. Furthermore, the hard drive in this application can be an NVME (Non-Volatile Memory Host Controller Interface Specification) drive, etc.

[0067] Step S102: Obtain the target traversal order used to number the hard disks.

[0068] Step S103: Obtain the numbering method used to number the hard disk.

[0069] In practical applications, after obtaining the initial silkscreen location information generated by enumerating the processing unit ports of the server, since the initial silkscreen location information represents the port information of the hard drive on the server, the BIOS can manage the hard drive based on the initial silkscreen location information, and thus generate the hard drive's silkscreen serial number based on the initial silkscreen location information. During this process, considering the user's hardware planning for the server motherboard, the installation location of the hard drives on the motherboard has been determined. At this time, in order to ensure that the silkscreen serial numbers generated by the BIOS match the user's hard drive installation location, the BIOS needs to ensure that the generated silkscreen serial numbers are consistent with the user's hard drive numbering results. To this end, the BIOS needs to obtain the target traversal order for numbering the hard drives and the numbering generation method for numbering the hard drives. It then traverses the hard drives according to the target traversal order and generates the serial number value of the traversed hard drives according to the numbering generation method. In this way, only the target traversal order and the numbering generation method need to be adjusted to flexibly generate the required serial number values. Taking three hard drives as an example, assuming that the first hard drive is traversed first, then the second hard drive, and finally the third hard drive, and the numbering generation method is 1 then 2 then 3, then the serial numbers of the three hard drives are 1, 2, and 3 respectively. If only the target traversal order is changed to traverse the second hard drive first, then the first hard drive, and finally the third hard drive, then the serial numbers of the three hard drives will change to 2, 1, and 3.

[0070] In specific application scenarios, users also identify hard drives using hard drive serial numbers. If the user's hard drive serial number differs from the BIOS's, the user cannot directly locate and operate the corresponding hard drive based on the BIOS's serial number when the BIOS detects a hard drive malfunction. Therefore, overcoming this challenge lies in how to effectively communicate the user's hard drive serial number to the BIOS, ensuring consistency between the two. Considering the BIOS's ability to interact with the CPU and the CPU's ability to access memory, the target traversal order and serial number generation method for hard drive serialization can be written into this memory, which the BIOS can then read to obtain the corresponding information. Specifically, the BIOS can access a preset memory via the System Management Bus (SMBUS) protocol to obtain the target traversal order and serial number generation method for hard drive serialization. This preset memory is connected to the CPU's SMBUS, for example, via a bidirectional two-wire synchronous serial bus. The type of preset memory can be determined according to the needs of the scenario. For example, the preset memory can be EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory).

[0071] In specific application scenarios, information related to the hard drive serial number can be stored at various addresses in the preset memory. For example, a flag bit can be set at the header address to indicate whether the hard drive serial number information in the preset memory is valid. This allows the BIOS to continue accessing the preset memory to obtain the hard drive serial number information when the flag bit information is valid, and to end the reading of the preset memory when the flag bit is invalid. Furthermore, various types of hard drive serial number information can be stored at various addresses in the preset memory, and a specific address can be set to store the currently valid hard drive serial number information. In this way, the user only needs to adjust this specific address information to flexibly select the required hard drive serial number information, avoiding the process of repeatedly writing hard drive serial number information to the preset memory. The stored content can be as shown in Table 1. Correspondingly, when the BIOS accesses the preset memory through the system management bus protocol to obtain the target traversal order and numbering method for numbering the hard disks, it can read the flag information stored at the first address in the preset memory through the system management bus protocol. In response to the flag information being valid, it reads the selection information stored at the second address in the preset memory through the system management bus protocol. This selection information is used to select the storage address of the effective hard disk numbering information. In the preset memory, the third address corresponding to the selection information is determined. The third address in the preset memory is read through the system management bus protocol to obtain the target traversal order and numbering method for numbering the hard disks.

[0072] Table 1 Address information of preset memory

[0073]

[0074] In Table 1, Area 0 of the preset memory is used to store flag information; Area 1 is used to store the number of types of hard disk numbering information, such as reserving a total of 10 numbering schemes; Area 2 stores information representing the numbering rules of the front and rear windows, that is, whether the front and rear windows are numbered independently or uniformly; Area 3 stores information representing the priority scanning CPU order, which can use 8 bytes, and the CPU priority is determined by the offset, supporting a maximum of 8 CPUs; Area 4 stores information representing the priority scanning PE Port order, which can use 6 bytes, and the PE Port priority is determined by the offset. Correspondingly, during the process of obtaining the target traversal order for numbering the hard drives, the BIOS can obtain the target traversal order for numbering the hard drives. The target traversal order includes the CPU traversal order and the processing unit port traversal order. The CPU traversal order is the order in which the CPU is traversed, such as traversing CPU4 first, then CPU0, then CPU2, etc. The processing unit port traversal order is the order in which the processing unit ports within the CPU are traversed. Assuming a single CPU has 6 PEs, the processing unit port traversal order could be PE4 first, then PE0, then PE2, etc., at which point the corresponding ports... The numbering can be as shown in Figure 2. During the process of obtaining the numbering generation method for hard drives, the numbering generation method can be obtained. The numbering generation method includes independent numbering or unified numbering. Independent numbering means that hard drives in each region need to be numbered independently. Unified numbering means that all hard drives use a single set of numbers. Taking the front and back windows of the server as examples, with unified numbering, the hard drive serial numbers in the front window are 0, 1, 2…9, and the hard drive serial numbers in the back window are 10, 11…; while with independent numbering, the hard drive serial numbers in the front window are 0, 1, 2…9, and the hard drive serial numbers in the back window are 0, 1, 2…9.

[0075] It should be noted that the data format of the preset memory read by the BIOS through the system management bus protocol can be flexibly determined according to the specific scenario. For example, as shown in Figure 3, the Device Address represents the device address of the preset memory, and the two-byte Word Address is a 16-bit offset, which can be the offset of the content stored in the preset memory. All offset content can be read out by incrementing 1 using a For loop; Data represents the actual content read out.

[0076] Step S104: Traverse the initial silkscreen position information according to the target traversal order to obtain the traversed silkscreen position information, and generate the hard disk sequence number value according to the numbering generation method.

[0077] Step S105: Generate the hard disk silkscreen serial number information based on the traversed silkscreen location information and serial number value.

[0078] In practical applications, after obtaining the target traversal order and numbering generation method for the hard drives, the BIOS can traverse the initial silkscreen location information according to the target traversal order to obtain the traversed silkscreen location information, and generate the hard drive's serial number value according to the numbering generation method. At this point, the hard drive's location and serial number value on the server are known, so the hard drive's silkscreen serial number information can be generated based on the traversed silkscreen location information and serial number value. For example, the two can be combined in the order of the hard drive's traversed silkscreen location information first and the serial number value last to obtain the silkscreen serial number information. For example, the silkscreen serial number information can be CPU1_PE1_EF_NVME0, where 0 is the hard drive's serial number value, NVME indicates the hard drive type, and the hard drive type identification method can be determined according to actual needs.

[0079] In practical applications, traversal bits can be set for each central processing unit (CPU) and processing unit. These traversal bits indicate whether an object has been traversed. In the process of traversing the initial silkscreen position information according to the target traversal order to obtain the traversed silkscreen position information, and generating the hard drive serial number value according to the numbering method, we can first select an untraversed CPU as the processor to be traversed based on the traversal bits and the CPU traversal order. Then, according to the processing unit port traversal order, we select an untraversed processing unit as the processing unit to be traversed. We then traverse the ports of the processing unit to be traversed, using the initial silkscreen position information of the traversed port as the traversed silkscreen position information, and generate the serial number value of the hard drive installed on that traversed port according to the numbering method. After traversing all ports of the processing unit to be traversed, the traversal bit of that processing unit can be set to traversed. After traversing all processing units in the processor to be traversed, the traversal bit of that processor can be set to traversed. In this way, whether each central processing unit and processing unit has been traversed can be accurately recorded by the traversal bit. The BIOS only needs to combine the traversal bit to accurately traverse the initial silkscreen position information of the corresponding port according to the central processing unit traversal order and the processing unit port traversal order, and can accurately generate the hard drive serial number value on that port, avoiding the generation of chaotic hard drive serial number values ​​due to missing port traversal, thus improving the accuracy of hard drive serial number value generation.

[0080] In specific application scenarios, during the process of traversing the initial silkscreen position information according to the target traversal order to obtain the traversed silkscreen position information, and generating the hard drive serial number value according to the numbering generation method, since the numbering generation method is a unified numbering method, all hard drives can be directly numbered, as shown in Figure 4:

[0081] Initialize the values ​​of processor variables, processing unit port variables, and sequence number variables, for example, by initializing all these values ​​to 1;

[0082] Check if the processor variable is less than a first value, which includes the total number of central processing units;

[0083] If the response processor variable is less than the first value, then check if the processing unit port variable is less than the second value, which includes the total number of processing unit ports of a single central processing unit.

[0084] In response to the processing unit port variable being less than the second value, a CPU that has not been traversed is selected as the processor to be traversed according to the CPU traversal order. Then, an untraversed processing unit port is selected from the processors to be traversed according to the processing unit port traversal order. The initial silkscreen position information of the selected processing unit port is used as the traversal silkscreen position information. A hard disk serial number value is generated based on the hard disk type and serial number variables on the selected processing unit port (e.g., combining the hard disk type and serial number variables as the hard disk serial number value). The selected processing unit port is marked as traversed. The value of the serial number variable is increased, for example, by 1. The value of the processing unit port variable is also increased, for example, by 1. The process returns to the step of checking whether the processing unit port variable is less than the second value.

[0085] In response to the processing unit port variable being equal to the second value, the processor to be traversed is marked as traversed, the value of the processor variable is increased, for example, by 1, and the process returns to the step of checking whether the processor variable is less than the first value.

[0086] The process ends when the processor variable is greater than the first value.

[0087] In specific application scenarios, during the process of traversing the initial silkscreen position information according to the target traversal order to obtain the traversed silkscreen position information, and generating the hard disk serial number value according to the numbering generation method, in response to the independent numbering method, it is necessary to independently number the hard disks in each region. At this time, the hard disks can be numbered according to the region type, as shown in Figure 5:

[0088] Initialize the value of the location variable, such as initializing it to 1. The location variable is used to represent the information of the area where the hard drive is located. For example, the front window of the server can be represented by 0, and the back window of the server can be represented by 1.

[0089] Check if the location variable is less than the region quantity value, which is the number of server regions that need to be independently numbered.

[0090] In response to the location variable being less than the region quantity value, the values ​​of the processor variable, processing unit port variable, and sequence number variable are initialized, for example, by initializing these values ​​to 1.

[0091] Check if the processor variable is less than a first value, which includes the total number of central processing units;

[0092] In response to the processor variable being less than a first value, it is then checked whether the processing unit port variable is less than a second value, which includes the total number of processing unit ports of a single central processing unit.

[0093] In response to the processing unit port variable being less than the second value, a CPU that has not been traversed is selected as the processor to be traversed according to the CPU traversal order; a processing unit port that has not been traversed is selected from the processors to be traversed according to the processing unit port traversal order; if the selected processing unit port is in the area corresponding to the position variable, the initial silkscreen position information of the selected processing unit port is used as the traversal silkscreen position information, the hard disk serial number value is generated according to the hard disk type and serial number variable on the selected processing unit port, the selected processing unit port is marked as traversed, and the value of the serial number variable is increased, for example, by 1, and the value of the processing unit port variable is increased, for example, by 1; if the selected processing unit port is not in the area corresponding to the position variable, the value of the processing unit port variable is increased, for example, by 1; return to the step of checking whether the processing unit port variable is less than the second value;

[0094] In response to the processing unit port variable being equal to the second value, the processor to be traversed is marked as traversed, the value of the processor variable is increased, for example, by 1, and the process returns to the step of checking whether the processor variable is less than the first value.

[0095] If the processor variable is greater than the first value, the value of the position variable is increased, for example, by 1, and the process returns to the step of checking whether the position variable is less than the region quantity value.

[0096] The process ends when the location variable equals the region quantity value.

[0097] As can be seen from the implementation process, in the process of independently numbering hard drives, after determining the corresponding area based on the location variable, the serial number variable of the hard drive in that area is initialized to 0. In this way, the serial number value of the hard drive in each area is generated starting from 0, laying the foundation for the independent numbering of hard drives in each area. Furthermore, in the process of independently numbering the hard drives in each area, the initial silkscreen position information of the selected processing unit port is used as the traversal silkscreen position information. The serial number value of the hard drive is generated based on the hard drive type and serial number variable at the selected processing unit port. Only after the selected processing unit port is marked as traversed is the value of the serial number variable increased, and the value of the processing unit port variable is also increased. When the selected processing unit port is not in the area corresponding to the location variable, only the value of the processing unit port variable is increased, and the value of the serial number variable is not increased. In this way, the next hard drive belonging to this area will still use the previous serial number variable to generate the serial number value, ensuring the continuity of the hard drive serial number value in the same area and achieving the effect of stable numbering of hard drives in the same area.

[0098] It should be noted that if the selected processing unit port is not in the area corresponding to the position variable, the selected processing unit port does not need to be marked as traversed. In this way, after changing the position variable, the traversal of the processing unit port can continue. Of course, the selected processing unit port can also be marked as traversed, but after changing the position variable, all traversal bits need to be reset so that the traversal of the processing unit port can continue.

[0099] In practical applications, after generating the hard drive's silkscreen serial number information based on the silkscreen location information and serial number value, the BIOS can also synchronize the silkscreen serial number information to the baseboard management controller and the BIOS's own setting interface, so that the hard drive can be managed accordingly using the silkscreen serial number information.

[0100] This application provides a silkscreen serial number generation method applied to a basic input / output system. The method involves: obtaining initial silkscreen position information generated after enumerating the processing unit ports of a server; obtaining a target traversal order for numbering hard disks; obtaining a numbering generation method for numbering hard disks; traversing the initial silkscreen position information according to the target traversal order to obtain traversed silkscreen position information, and generating a serial number value for the hard disk according to the numbering generation method; and generating the silkscreen serial number information for the hard disk based on the traversed silkscreen position information and the serial number value. This application generates silkscreen serial number information only after obtaining the initial silkscreen location information generated by enumerating the processing unit ports of the server. This does not change the enumeration order of the BIOS, ensuring the stability of the enumeration order and avoiding server function errors caused by changes in the enumeration order. Furthermore, during the generation of silkscreen serial number information, since the silkscreen location information is traversed according to the target traversal order, and the hard disk serial number value is determined according to the numbering generation method, and the hard disk silkscreen serial number information is generated based on the traversal silkscreen location information and serial number value, changing the target traversal order and numbering generation method can change the result of the silkscreen serial number information, thereby allowing the BIOS to flexibly generate the required silkscreen serial number.
