[0002] In the current field of intelligent devices, OpenHarmony, as an emerging operating system, has broad application prospects. However, during the development of its Setting application, with the continuous emergence of various devices, their hardware configurations and capabilities show diverse characteristics. Due to the unevenness of these hardware capabilities, when developers are developing the OpenHarmony Setting application, they have to make fine adaptations one by one for the unique hardware capabilities of each specific device. This way of adapting to each device brings many adverse effects. First, it greatly expands the development workload, and developers need to spend a lot of time and energy researching and adapting various different hardware combinations. Second, it leads to a sharp increase in the code complexity during the development process. The adaptation codes for different devices are intertwined, greatly reducing the readability and maintainability of the code. Moreover, due to the lack of generality, once the hardware is updated or changed, a large-scale modification of the entire adaptation code is required, further increasing the maintenance cost.

[0003] In the prior art, in terms of obtaining hardware capabilities for other similar operating systems, although there have been some attempts and explorations, there are generally problems such as inconsistent interface standards, immature and imperfect solutions, and poor adaptability. Some operating systems provide overly complex interfaces, making it difficult for developers to quickly get started and effectively utilize them; some solutions lack flexibility and scalability when facing new types of hardware; and some have significant differences between different versions, resulting in prominent compatibility problems.

[0004] In summary, the prior art cannot achieve automatic acquisition of hardware capabilities, and there are problems of low efficiency in obtaining hardware capabilities and high computing power requirements for hardware capability acquisition operations during the process of obtaining hardware capabilities. Summary of the Invention

[0028] Embodiment 1

[0029] Figure 1 A flowchart of a method for acquiring hardware capabilities provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the situation of acquiring hardware capabilities of hardware. The method can be executed by a hardware capability acquisition device. The hardware capability acquisition device can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software. The hardware capability acquisition device can be configured in a terminal or server with a hardware capability acquisition function.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0031] S110 . In response to a user's operation of generating a capability profile for a target device, a capability profile matching the target device is obtained.

[0032] The target device is composed of various hardware connected through a hardware connection bus.

[0033] The capability configuration file is used to store association information between various hardware identifiers and corresponding hardware capability options and capability identifiers.

[0034] Furthermore, the hardware connection bus is a key channel connecting various hardware components in the device. Common hardware connection buses include PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus, USB (Universal Serial Bus) bus, etc. For example, in a computer device, the graphics card may be connected to the motherboard through the PCI bus, while external devices such as the mouse and keyboard are usually connected to the system through the USB bus. The target device is composed of various hardware connected through different hardware connection buses. These hardware cover various components such as processors, memory, storage devices, network adapters, etc., which work together to achieve the overall performance of the target device.

[0035] S120 . In response to a user's operation to obtain capabilities of a target hardware, searching the capability configuration file for target hardware capabilities that match the target hardware.

[0036] Among them, in response to the user's capability acquisition operation for the target hardware, the target hardware capability matching the target hardware is searched in the capability configuration file, including: obtaining the hardware identification of the target hardware; obtaining each hardware capability option matching the hardware identification and the hardware capability identification matching each hardware capability option in the capability configuration table; generating the target hardware capability based on each hardware capability option and the hardware capability identification matching each hardware capability option.

[0037] Specifically, when the user performs a capability acquisition operation on the target hardware, the system applying this method will quickly locate the previously generated capability configuration file. In this process, obtaining the hardware identification of the target hardware is the key first step. For example, if the target hardware is a graphics card, the system will accurately extract the hardware identification information such as the manufacturer code and product model number obtained during the hardware scanning phase. Then, the system will perform an accurate search in the capability configuration table. It should be noted that for the hardware identification of the graphics card, multiple matching hardware capability options may be found in the capability configuration table, such as whether the DirectX12 graphics API (Application Programming Interface) is supported, whether it has hardware video encoding capabilities, etc., as well as the hardware capability identification corresponding to each capability option, such as "1" for support, "0" for non-support, "2" for pending detection, etc. Based on these hardware capability options and capability identifications obtained from the capability configuration table, the system will generate a detailed description of the target hardware capability according to specific algorithms and logic.

[0038] Those skilled in the art should understand that the method of generating a detailed description based on the obtained information is a mature prior art and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0039] S130: Generate and display hardware capability results matching the target hardware according to the target hardware capability.

[0040] Specifically, generating and displaying a hardware capability result that matches the target hardware for the target hardware capability includes: in the target hardware capability, aggregating hardware capability options that are identified as supported to obtain a first display result; in the target hardware capability, aggregating hardware capability options that are identified as to be detected to obtain a second display result; and generating and displaying a hardware capability result that matches the target hardware based on the first display result and the second display result.

[0041] Exemplarily, in the target hardware capabilities, the system applying this method will summarize and organize the hardware capability options marked as supported by the hardware capabilities to form a first display result. For example, for a graphics card, if it supports DirectX12 and hardware video encoding capabilities, these capability options will be aggregated into the first display result. At the same time, for hardware capability options marked as to be tested, separate aggregation will also be performed to form a second display result. For example, some new graphics processing technologies may require further testing and confirmation under the current detection conditions, and these capability options will be classified into the second display result. Based on these two results, the system will generate a comprehensive hardware capability result that matches the target hardware, and display it on the user interface in an intuitive manner, which may be presented to the user in the form of a chart, list or text report, so that the user can clearly understand the capability status of the target hardware.

[0042] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention obtains a capability profile matching the target device in response to a user's capability profile generation operation for the target device, then searches for target hardware capabilities matching the target hardware in the capability profile in response to a user's capability acquisition operation for the target hardware, and finally generates and displays hardware capability results matching the target hardware for the target hardware capabilities, thereby achieving the acquisition of hardware capabilities of hardware related to the target device, improving the efficiency of hardware capability acquisition, and reducing the computing power requirement of the hardware capability acquisition operation.

[0043] Embodiment 2

[0044] Figure 2 A flowchart of a method for acquiring hardware capabilities provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. This embodiment is refined based on the above-mentioned embodiment. In this embodiment, specifically, a method for searching for target hardware capabilities matching the target hardware in the capability configuration file in response to a user's capability acquisition operation for the target hardware is refined.

[0045] like Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0046] S210: Traverse the hardware connection bus in the target device through a preset scanning script to obtain the hardware identification and hardware attribute information of each hardware.

[0047] The hardware attribute information includes hardware capability information matching the hardware.

[0048] Specifically, in this embodiment, the preset scanning script is a pre-written program, which has special logic and algorithms for detecting and extracting information from various hardware connection buses in the system. When the scanning script is started, it will visit these different types of hardware connection buses in sequence according to a predetermined order; illustratively, the preset scanning script can be set to dmidecode or HardwareLister and other open source scripts that can be used to list relevant information of system hardware according to the hardware connection bus according to actual implementation needs. This embodiment does not limit the specific type of scanning script.

[0049] In a specific implementation scenario of this embodiment, taking a typical laptop as an example, its internal processor, graphics card, network card and other hardware may be connected through a PCI bus. When the preset scanning script is run, the script will detect the hardware on the bus according to the electrical characteristics and communication protocol of the PCI bus. For the network card hardware, the scanning script first obtains its hardware identification. Usually, the hardware identification of the network card includes the manufacturer ID and device ID. At the same time, the script will detect its hardware attribute information, that is, hardware capabilities, such as whether it supports the latest Wi-Fi6 standard (802.11ax). If supported, it means that the hardware capability attributes of the network card include Wi-Fi; whether it supports Bluetooth function, if it supports Bluetooth 5.0 or higher, if supported, it means that the hardware capability attributes of the network card include Bluetooth.

[0050] In actual system development, the scanning script will use the system's device driver and the interface provided by the operating system to access the hardware connection bus. For example, in the Windows operating system, the scanning script can call the API provided by the Windows Device Manager to obtain information about PCI devices; in the Linux system, the output results of tools such as the lspci command (for PCI devices) and the lsusb command (for USB devices) may be used and parsed to obtain the required hardware identification and hardware attribute information.

[0051] S220: Fill in a preset capability configuration table according to each hardware attribute information to obtain a capability configuration file matching the target device.

[0052] The capability configuration table includes: a hardware identifier of each hardware and at least one hardware capability option matching the hardware capability.

[0053] Specifically, a preset capability configuration table is filled in according to each hardware attribute information to obtain a capability configuration file matching the target device, including: obtaining each hardware capability option that matches each hardware respectively through the hardware identifier of each hardware; searching the hardware attribute information of the hardware for whether the hardware capability information that matches the hardware capability option exists; if it exists and is supported, the hardware capability identifier that matches the hardware capability option is determined to be allowed and filled in; if it exists and needs to be detected, the hardware capability identifier that matches the hardware capability option is determined to be to be detected and filled in; if it exists and is not supported, the hardware capability identifier that matches the hardware capability option is determined to be not allowed and filled in; if it does not exist, the hardware capability identifier that matches the hardware capability option is determined to be not allowed and filled in.

[0054] Exemplarily, taking a network card as an example, its hardware capability options may include whether it supports Wi-Fi connection in the 5G frequency band, whether it has Bluetooth function, whether it supports network wake-up, etc. After obtaining the hardware attribute information of the network card, the preset capability configuration table is filled in. For example, for a wireless network card with a hardware identification of "XX-001", the system will locate the corresponding record row in the preset capability configuration table based on its hardware identification. Next, the system will check whether there is content matching each hardware capability option in the hardware attribute information of the wireless network card. Assuming that one of the hardware capability options is "support 5G Wi-Fi", if the hardware attribute information of the wireless network card clearly indicates that it supports 5G Wi-Fi, then the hardware capability identifier that matches the hardware capability option will be determined as "allowed" and filled in the capability configuration table; if the hardware attribute information shows that further testing is required to determine whether 5G Wi-Fi is supported, such as the 5G Wi-Fi signal strength and stability of the network card in a specific environment, the corresponding hardware capability identifier will be determined as "pending detection" and filled in; if the hardware attribute information clearly indicates that 5G Wi-Fi is not supported, then it will be filled in as "not allowed". If there is no information related to a hardware capability option in the hardware attribute information, it will also be determined as "not allowed".

[0055] Optionally, after filling in a preset capability configuration table according to each hardware attribute information to obtain a capability configuration file matching the target device, it also includes: in response to a user's editing operation, modifying the capability configuration table; wherein the modification operation includes: modifying the determination result of the hardware capability option, and adding a determination strategy for the hardware capability option determined to be to be detected.

[0056] Based on the above steps, taking the previous wireless network card as an example, if the user finds that although it was determined not to support 5G Wi-Fi during the initial detection, it may support after replacing the driver or updating the hardware firmware. At this time, the user can initiate an editing operation through the editing interface provided by the system to modify the determination result of "not allowed" to "allowed". For the hardware capability options determined to be pending detection, the user can also add determination policies. For example, for the pending detection hardware capability option of "support Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)", the user can add a determination policy, that is, automatically perform a detection every period of time (such as 1 hour), or perform a detection when the device is connected to a specific Bluetooth device. Through these determination policies, the actual capabilities of the hardware can be more accurately determined, thereby improving the capability configuration table and the capability configuration file to ensure that they can always accurately reflect the hardware capability status of the target device.

[0057] Optionally, the modification operation may further include: adding a hardware capability option and a hardware capability identifier matching the hardware capability option for the target hardware, and adding new hardware and content related to the hardware capabilities of the hardware for the target device in the capability configuration file.

[0058] Exemplarily, when it comes to adding a hardware capability option and a matching hardware capability identifier for the target hardware, taking the microcontroller in an intelligent Internet of Things device as an example. With the development of technology and the expansion of application scenarios, it may be necessary to add new hardware capability options for it, such as the function of "supporting SparkLink technology". At this time, this hardware capability option will be newly added to the capability configuration table, and an initial hardware capability identifier, such as "allowed", will be set for it, which means that the hardware capabilities of the microcontroller include SparkLink. In terms of adding new hardware and content related to the hardware capabilities of the hardware for the target device in the capability configuration file, assume that a dedicated image processing acceleration card needs to be newly added to an industrial control computer. First, the basic hardware identifier of this new hardware, including key information such as its manufacturer and model, will be recorded in the capability configuration file. Then, for its hardware capabilities, hardware capability options such as "acceleration card" will be detailedly recorded, and corresponding hardware capability identifiers will be assigned to each option according to its technical specification manual. Such dynamic modification and expansion operations of the capability configuration table and the capability configuration file can greatly improve the adaptability and functionality of the hardware capability acquisition method described in this embodiment in different application scenarios, providing strong support for the continuous upgrade and optimization of the target device and the target hardware.

[0059] S230. In response to the user's operation of acquiring the capabilities of the target hardware, search for the target hardware capabilities matching the target hardware in the capability configuration file.

[0060] S240: Generate and display hardware capability results matching the target hardware according to the target hardware capability.

[0061] Optionally, based on the above steps, the hardware capability result may include, in addition to the first display result and the second display result, a determination strategy matching the second display result, so that the user or the target device may further determine the hardware capability included in the second display result according to the determination strategy.

[0062] It should be noted that in this embodiment, since there can be multiple detection methods for each hardware, which can be continuously supplemented according to the hardware characteristics, this embodiment does not limit the content of the judgment strategy, which can be set by the developer according to the actual usage scenario.

[0063] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention traverses the hardware connection bus in the target device through a preset scanning script to obtain the hardware identification and hardware attribute information of each hardware, and fills in the preset capability configuration table according to the hardware attribute information to obtain a capability configuration file matching the target device. Then, in response to the user's capability acquisition operation for the target hardware, the target hardware capability matching the target hardware is searched in the capability configuration file, and finally, a hardware capability result matching the target hardware is generated and displayed for the target hardware capability, thereby realizing the acquisition of the hardware capability of the hardware related to the target device, improving the efficiency of hardware capability acquisition, and reducing the computing power requirement of the hardware capability acquisition operation.
