[0047] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the present application belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0048] The Basic Input Output System (BIOS) is a set of programs that are fixed on a Read-Only Memory (ROM) chip on the computer motherboard, such as the most important basic input and output programs of the computer, the self-test program after powering on, and the system self-starting program. BIOS can read and write specific information of system settings from the Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS). The main function of BIOS is to provide the lowest-level and most direct hardware settings and control for the computer.

[0049] The BIOS Setup interface is a user interface provided by the firmware program embedded on the computer motherboard, which is used to manage and configure the computer's hardware settings. The BIOS Setup interface can be entered by pressing a specific key combination (such as the Delete key, the Esc key, etc.) when the computer starts. The appearance of the BIOS Setup interface can be a text-based menu structure or a modern graphical interface that displays various setting options in graphics or text.

[0050] Light and Versatile Graphics Library (LVGL) is a new graphical user interface (GUI) system framework. LVGL has the advantages of small code size and easy user interface development. As an open source embedded graphics library, LVGL is known for its lightweight, feature-rich, flexible, and portable features, which can help developers quickly and easily create beautiful and feature-rich graphical user interfaces.

[0051] At present, in order to support increasingly complex functions, a large number of options (also called configuration items) are available in the BIOS Setup interface, which involve various aspects such as hardware configuration, performance tuning, and security settings. In order to optimize the user experience and improve the security of system configuration, and to facilitate BIOS developers to diagnose problems, when developing the BIOS Setup interface based on LVGL, the electronic device executes the interface display control scheme, and provides a smarter user interface and simplifies the user interface by dynamically displaying (which can be referred to as display), hiding, and graying out the options in the pages included in the BIOS Setup interface.

[0052] The current interface display control solution is as follows: for options that need to be hidden or grayed out, variables and judgment conditions are added. When the judgment condition is met, the option is dynamically displayed; when the judgment condition is not met, the option is hidden or grayed out. That is, a global variable is created in the Non-Volatile Random Access Memory (NVRAM) using the flash operation software (such as FLASHROM), and a control expression is added before the code corresponding to the option that needs to be hidden or grayed out as the judgment condition. The value of this created variable is changed through the interactive command line interface (such as the EFI Shell) of the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) to perform dynamic display, hiding, and graying out of the option.

[0053] For example, if an option needs to be hidden (such as the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) Self Test Status), the user can create a variable (named BmcSupport), set the initial value of BmcSupport to 0, and add the control expression suppressif ideqval SERVER_MGMT_CONFIGURATION_DATA.BmcSupport == 0 before the code corresponding to this option, and add endif after the code corresponding to this option. This control expression means that when the value of BmcSupport is 0, this option is hidden; when the value of BmcSupport is not 0, this option is dynamically displayed.

[0054] When the electronic device displays a page on the BIOS Setup interface, if it determines that the value of BmcSupport is 0, then this option is hidden. If this option needs to be dynamically displayed on the page, the user can modify the value of BmcSupport to be not 0, restart the system, and re-enter the BIOS Setup interface. The electronic device determines that the value of BmcSupport is not 0, then this option is dynamically displayed. Through the above method, the electronic device can achieve conditional hiding of options. If you want to directly hide an option, just add suppressif TRUE.

[0055] For another example, if it is necessary to gray out an option (such as the timeout of the Fault-Resilient Booting, Level 2 (FRB-2) timer), the user can create a variable (named Frb2Enable), set the initial value of Frb2Enable to 0, and add a control expression grayout if ideqval SERVER_MGMT_CONFIGURATION_DATA.Frb2Enable == 0 before the code corresponding to this option, and add endif after the code corresponding to this option. This control expression means that when the value of Frb2Enable is 0, this option is grayed out, and when the value of Frb2Enable is not 0, this option is dynamically displayed.

[0056] When the electronic device displays a page on the BIOS Setup interface, if it determines that the value of Frb2Enable is 0, this option is grayed out. If it is necessary to dynamically display this option on the page, the user modifies the value of Frb2Enable to be not 0, restarts the system, and re-enters the BIOS Setup interface. The electronic device determines that the value of Frb2Enable is not 0, and then dynamically displays this option. Through the above method, the electronic device can implement conditional graying out of options. If it is necessary to directly gray out an option, just add grayout if TRUE.

[0057] The above interface display control scheme is relatively complex. It is necessary to add variables and judgment conditions for each option, resulting in a relatively large amount of code to be added, and the added judgment conditions change the page display logic. In addition, it is necessary to modify the values of the variables corresponding to each option, and it takes effect only after restarting the system, which further increases the complexity of the above interface display control scheme.

[0058] To solve the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a page display method, as Figure 1 shown, which is applied to an electronic device. The method includes:

[0059] Step S101, detecting a preset option associated with the BIOS setting interface.

[0060] Step S102, when it is detected that the value of the preset option indicates that the option in the page is set to the first preset display attribute, set the display attribute of each option in the first page according to the display attribute value of each option in the first page.

[0061] Step S103, displaying the set first page on the BIOS setting interface.

[0062] In the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present application, the BIOS setup interface is associated with preset options. The electronic device can detect the values of the preset options and set the display attributes of each option on the first page to be displayed on the BIOS setup interface based on the display attribute values of each option in the first page according to the values of the preset options, such as setting each option to be displayed, hidden, or grayed out. The electronic device can display the first page after setting, thus realizing the display of the first page. By applying the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present application, there is no need to add variables and judgment conditions for each option, and the electronic device does not need to set the display attributes according to the judgment conditions. In this way, when the electronic device sets the display attributes of the options and generates the page, the page display logic is not changed, and the interface display control is realized more simply without changing the page display logic, simplifying the display process and reducing the code to be added.

[0063] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can be a personal computer (PC), a server, or other devices supporting the BIOS setup interface. The BIOS setup interface can be a BIOS setup interface developed based on LVGL, or other types of BIOS setup interfaces, which are not limited herein.

[0064] Pages can be displayed on the BIOS setup interface. A page can include one or more options, and the display attributes of these options include display, hide, or gray, etc. For ease of description, the page to be displayed on the BIOS setup interface will be referred to as the first page hereinafter.

[0065] In the above step S101, the electronic device pre-sets options for adjusting the display attributes, that is, preset options. In the embodiments of the present application, the preset option can be a globally created variable.

[0066] The preset options are associated with all the options in the page, and the values of the preset options indicate that the display attributes of the options in the page are set to the preset display attributes. The preset display attributes can be the first preset display attribute or the second preset display attribute.

[0067] In one example, the first preset display attribute can be at least one of hide and gray, and the second preset display attribute can be display.

[0068] For example, the value of the preset option can be the first preset value or the second preset value. The first preset value indicates that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to the first preset display attribute, and the second preset value indicates that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to the first preset display attribute. The first preset value can be 0, and the second preset value can be 1. Similarly, the first preset value can also be 1, and the second preset value can also be 0. For ease of description, in the following, the case where the first preset value is 0 and the second preset value is 1 is taken as an example for illustration, which is not restrictive.

[0069] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can define the first preset value and the second preset value by defining macros. For example, the electronic device can preset the first preset value as ITEM_CTRL_HIDEORGRAY and the second preset value as ITEM_CTRL_EXPOSE, and execute #define ITEM_CTRL_HIDEORGRAY 0x00 and #define ITEM_CTRL_EXPOSE 0x01 to define the value of ITEM_CTRL_HIDEORGRAY as 0 and the value of ITEM_CTRL_EXPOSE as 1. The method of defining the first preset value and the second preset value is not limited herein.

[0070] For another example, the value of the preset option can be the first preset value to the fourth preset value, and the first preset value to the fourth preset value respectively indicate that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to hidden, grayed out, hidden and grayed out, and displayed. In this case, the first preset value to the third preset value indicate that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to the first preset display attribute, and the second preset value indicates that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to the first preset display attribute. The first preset value to the fourth preset value can be 0, 1, 2, 3. The values of the first preset value to the fourth preset value are not limited herein.

[0071] In another example, the first preset display attribute can be hidden and grayed out, and the second preset display attribute can be one of displayed, hidden, or grayed out.

[0072] For example, the value of the preset option can be the first preset value to the fourth preset value, and the first preset value to the fourth preset value respectively indicate that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to hidden, grayed out, hidden and grayed out, and displayed. In this case, the third preset value indicates that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to the first preset display attribute, and the first preset value, the second preset value, and the fourth preset value indicate that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to the second preset display attribute.

[0073] The electronic device can detect a preset option in real time and determine the value of the preset option. When the electronic device determines that the value of the preset option indicates that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to the first preset display attribute, step S102 is executed.

[0074] In the above step S102, the display attribute value of the option is the value indicating the display attribute of the option. The display attribute value may include a value indicating hiding, a value indicating graying out, and a default value (i.e., a value indicating display). The value indicating hiding may be expressed as "HIDE", and the value indicating graying out may be expressed as "GRAY", which is not limited herein. In this case, when the display attribute value of the option is "HIDE", it indicates that the display attribute of the option is hidden; when the display attribute value of the option is "GRAY", it indicates that the display attribute of the option is grayed out; when the display attribute value does not exist or is the default value, it indicates that the display attribute of the option is display.

[0075] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can set the display attribute of each option in the first page. For example, it can traverse each option in the first page; read the display attribute value of the traversed option, and set the display attribute of the traversed option according to the display attribute value.

[0076] For example, the first page includes option 1 to option 3. The electronic device traverses option 1 to option 3. When traversing option 1, if the display attribute value of option 1 is the default value or does not exist, the display attribute of option 1 is set to display, and at this time, the user can configure or select option 1; continue to traverse the options. When traversing option 2, the display attribute value of option 2 is "HIDE", so the display attribute of option 2 is set to hidden, and at this time, option 2 is not displayed in page 1; continue to traverse the options. When traversing option 3, the display attribute value of option 3 is "GRAY", so the display attribute of option 3 is set to grayed out, and at this time, option 3 is displayed in page 1, but the user cannot configure or select option 3.

[0077] In some embodiments, each option corresponds to a prompt word, which is a string predefined in the #string.uni file. The prompt word of each option includes one or more attributes, and each attribute corresponds to an attribute label predefined in the #langdef.uni file. The attributes of the prompt word of each option can indicate the display attribute value of each option. Then, the above step S102 can be: setting the display attribute of each option in the first page according to the attributes of the prompt words of each option in the first page.

[0078] In the embodiments of the present application, an electronic device may preset a display attribute label corresponding to a display attribute, and set an attribute value corresponding to the display attribute label in the attributes of the prompt word of the option to be hidden or grayed out. For example, the electronic device may use #langdef x-ATTR "x-ATTR" to define the attribute label x-ATTR, indicating that the attribute label x-ATTR is a display attribute label. Then, the electronic device may use #language x-ATTR "HIDE" in the attributes of the prompt word of the option to be hidden, and set the attribute value corresponding to the display attribute label to the value "HIDE" indicating hiding, or use #language x-ATTR "GRAY" in the attributes of the prompt word of the option to be grayed out, and set the attribute value corresponding to the display attribute label to the value "GRAY" indicating graying out. The electronic device may also set the attribute value corresponding to the display attribute label to a default value in the above manner, and this is not limited.

[0079] The electronic device may traverse each option in the first page; read the attribute value corresponding to the display attribute label from the attributes of the prompt word of the traversed option, obtain the display attribute value of the traversed option, and set the display attribute of the traversed option. For example, for the traversed option, the electronic device may read the attribute value corresponding to the display attribute label x-ATTR from the attributes of the prompt word of the traversed option, obtain "HIDE", "GRAY" or the default value as the display attribute value of the traversed option, and correspondingly set the display attribute of the traversed option to hidden, grayed out, or displayed.

[0080] If the attributes of the prompt word of the traversed option do not include the attribute value corresponding to the display attribute label, indicating that the display attribute value does not exist, the electronic device may set the display attribute of the traversed option to displayed.

[0081] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device may call a UEFI interface function (such as HiiGetStringEx(HiiHandle, StringId, Language, TryBestLanguage)) to obtain the display attribute value of the option. Among them, HiiHandle represents the handle of the option, indicating the Human Interface Infrastructure (HII) database where the option is located; StringId represents the identifier of the prompt word of the option; Language represents the attribute label of the option, that is, when obtaining the display attribute value of the option, Language takes the value of x-ATTR; TryBestLanguage takes the value of false. The electronic device may use the result returned by the UEFI interface function as the display attribute value of the option.

[0082] Applying the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device only needs to set the display attribute of the option according to the attribute of the prompt word, instead of setting it according to the judgment condition, which greatly reduces the amount of added code and does not change the page display logic.

[0083] In some embodiments, the electronic device can set the display attribute of the option (i.e., execute the above step S102) through the following steps: traverse each option in the first page; if the display attribute value of the traversed option is a value indicating hiding, skip creating the traversed option; if the display attribute value of the traversed option is a value indicating graying out, set the transparency of the traversed option to a preset transparency, and set the state of the traversed option to a disabled state, where the preset transparency is greater than the minimum transparency and less than the maximum transparency.

[0084] If the display attribute value of the traversed option is a value indicating hiding, that is, the display attribute value of the traversed option is "HIDE", the electronic device can skip the traversed option, that is, not create the traversed option. At this time, the traversed option is not displayed on the first page. In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device does not create the option to be hidden, which simplifies the user interface while saving CPU resources and improving the page generation and display speed.

[0085] When the BIOS setting interface is a BIOS setting interface developed based on LVGL, the electronic device can also call the library function lv_obj_add_flag provided by LVGL to add a hidden flag (such as the LV_OBJ_FLAG_HIDDEN flag) to the traversed option to achieve hiding of the traversed option.

[0086] In the embodiments of the present application, the minimum transparency is 0 and the maximum transparency is 100%. The preset transparency is greater than 0 and less than 100%. For example, the preset transparency can be 50%, 60%, etc.

[0087] Taking the preset transparency of 50% as an example. When the BIOS setting interface is a BIOS setting interface developed based on LVGL, if the display attribute value of the traversed option is a value indicating graying out, that is, the display attribute value of the traversed option is "GRAY", the electronic device can call the library function lv_obj_add_style provided by LVGL to set the transparency of the traversed option to 50%, and call the library function lv_obj_add_state provided by LVGL to set the traversed option to a disabled state (such as LV_STATE_DISABLED). In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device sets the transparency and usage state of the option to be grayed out to provide a simplified user interface and achieve interface display control.

[0088] In an embodiment of the present application, if the display attribute value of the traversed option is the default value or does not exist, the electronic device can normally create the traversed option, and at this time, the user can configure or select the traversed option.

[0089] In step S103 above, the electronic device loads the set first page into the BIOS setup interface. The set first page is the newly created page, and at this time, the BIOS setup interface displays the newly created first page.

[0090] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 shown, there is also provided a page display method applied to an electronic device, and this method may include:

[0091] Step S201, detecting preset options associated with the BIOS setup interface.

[0092] Step S202, when it is detected that the value of the preset option indicates that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to the first preset display attribute, set the display attribute of each option in the first page according to the display attribute value of each option in the first page.

[0093] Step S203, when it is detected that the value of the preset option indicates that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to the second preset display attribute, set the display attribute of each option in the first page to the second preset display attribute.

[0094] Step S204, displaying the set first page on the BIOS setup interface.

[0095] The above step S201 to step S202 are the same as the above step S101 to step S102, and the above step S204 is the same as the above step S103.

[0096] The electronic device can execute step S201 (that is, step S101), detect the preset option in real time, and determine the value of the preset option. When the electronic device determines that the value of the preset option indicates that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to the second preset display attribute, it executes step S203.

[0097] In the above step S203, the electronic device can set the display attribute of each option in the first page according to the second preset display attribute. For example, it can traverse each option in the first page; set the display attribute of the traversed option to the second preset display attribute.

[0098] For example, if the second preset display attribute is display, the electronic device can set the display attribute of all options in the first page to display, and at this time, the user can configure or select all options in the first page.

[0099] For another example, the second preset display attribute is one of display, hide, or gray out. If the value of the preset option is the fourth preset value, indicating that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to display, the electronic device can set the display attributes of all options in the first page to display. At this time, the user can configure or select all options. If the value of the preset option is the second preset value, indicating that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to gray out, the electronic device can set the display attributes of all options in the first page to gray out. At this time, all options can be displayed in the first page, but the user cannot configure or select all options.

[0100] In the embodiments of the present application, when the value of the preset option indicates that the display attribute of the option in the page is set to the second preset display attribute, the electronic device can directly set the display attribute of the option without obtaining the display attribute value for setting, which improves the setting efficiency of the display attribute of the option and improves the page generation efficiency.

[0101] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, a page display method is further provided, which is applied to an electronic device. The method may include:

[0102] Step S301, detecting a preset option associated with the BIOS setup interface.

[0103] Step S302, when it is detected that the value of the preset option indicates that the option in the page is set to the first preset display attribute, setting the display attribute of each option in the first page according to the display attribute value of each option in the first page.

[0104] Step S303, displaying the set first page on the BIOS setup interface.

[0105] Step S304, in response to a shortcut key operation of the user on the BIOS setup interface, switching the value of the preset option.

[0106] Step S305, deleting the set first page and returning to execute the above step S301.

[0107] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device associates the preset option with a preset shortcut key, so as to quickly change the value of the preset option by using the shortcut key and realize the quick switching of the display attribute of the option. Since it is not necessary to modify the value of the preset option through the EFI Shell, it is not necessary to restart the system to take effect, and only the page needs to be recreated.

[0108] In the above step S304, the electronic device can pre-associate the preset shortcut key with the preset option. The electronic device can switch the value of the preset option in response to the operation of the user on the preset shortcut key on the BIOS setup interface.

[0109] For example, the value of the preset option is the first preset value or the second preset value. When the value of the preset option is the first preset value, the electronic device responds to the user's operation on the preset shortcut key and switches the value of the preset option to the second preset value; when the value of the preset option is the second preset value, the electronic device responds to the user's operation on the preset shortcut key and switches the value of the preset option to the first preset value.

[0110] After switching the value of the preset option, the electronic device may execute step S305 above to delete the first page displayed on the current BIOS setting interface, and then re-execute step S301 above to detect the preset option associated with the BIOS setting interface, and continue to execute steps S302 and S303 to set the display attribute of the option using the switched value of the preset option, create and display a new first page, thereby realizing the switching of the display attribute of the option.

[0111] In the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device may also respond to the user's operation, modify the value of the preset option through the EFI Shell, restart the system, and re-enter the BIOS setting interface to realize the switching of the display attribute of the option.

[0112] Next, for the BIOS setting interface developed based on LVGL, the page display method provided by the embodiment of the present application will be described in detail. Taking the first preset display attribute as at least one of hidden and grayed out, the second preset display attribute as displayed, and the value of the preset option as the first preset value or the second preset value as an example.

[0113] (1) Define macros

[0114] The electronic device defines two preset values, ITEM_CTRL_HIDEORGRAY and ITEM_CTRL_EXPOSE (for example, execute #define ITEM_CTRL_HIDEORGRAY 0x00 and #define ITEM_CTRL_EXPOSE 0x01). ITEM_CTRL_HIDEORGRAY indicates that the option needs to be hidden or grayed out, and its value is 0; ITEM_CTRL_EXPOSE indicates that the option needs to be displayed, and its value is 1.

[0115] (2) Create a global variable

[0116] The electronic device responds to the user's operation of creating a global variable in the NVRAM using the FLASHROM, creates a global variable gItemCtrl (i.e., the preset option) to record the current control display method, and sets the initial value of gItemCtrl to ITEM_CTRL_HIDEORGRAY.

[0117] (3) Respond to the shortcut key to switch the value of gItemCtrl

[0118] The electronic device associates gItemCtrl with the combined shortcut key Ctrl+Shift+F12. In response to the user's operation on the combined shortcut key Ctrl+Shift+F12, the value of gItemCtrl is switched. For example, when the user presses the combined key in the BIOS Setup interface, if the value of gItemCtrl is ITEM_CTRL_HIDEORGRAY, the electronic device responds to the user's operation and switches the value of gItemCtrl to ITEM_CTRL_EXPOSE; if the value of gItemCtrl is ITEM_CTRL_EXPOSE, the electronic device responds to the user's operation and switches the value of gItemCtrl to ITEM_CTRL_HIDEORGRAY.

[0119] (4) Add attributes to the strings (prompt words) corresponding to the options that need to be hidden or grayed out

[0120] The user can add #langdef x-ATTR"x-ATTR" in the.uni file where the string resource is located to define the attribute label x-ATTR, and add #language x-ATTR"GRAY" or #language x-ATTR"HIDE" in the attributes of the prompt words corresponding to the options that need to be hidden or grayed out. Here, "HIDE" means to hide the option, and "GRAY" means to gray out the option. For example, if it is necessary to gray out the option with the prompt word STR_BIOS_FRB2_WD_TIMER, the user can add #language x-ATTR"GRAY" at the position corresponding to the string STR_BIOS_FRB2_WD_TIMER in the.uni file (i.e., #string STR_BIOS_FRB2_WD_TIMER). The attributes of the prompt words can also include #language en-US"FRB2WatchdogTimer", #language zh-CN"FRB2 timer", etc.

[0121] For another example, if it is necessary to hide the option with the prompt word STR_BOOT_TIMEOUT, the user can add #language x-ATTR"HIDE" at the position corresponding to #stringSTR_BOOT_TIMEOUT.

[0122] (5) Hide and gray out according to the attributes of the strings corresponding to the options

[0123] When an electronic device displays a page and creates options in the BIOS setup interface, it can set the display attributes of the options according to the value of gItemCtrl. If the value of gItemCtrl is ITEM_CTRL_HIDEORGRAY, the electronic device needs to check the attributes of the string corresponding to the option; if the value of gItemCtrl is ITEM_CTRL_EXPOSE, the electronic device does not need to check the attributes of the string corresponding to the option and can directly create the options in the page to be displayed.

[0124] The electronic device can obtain the attributes of the string corresponding to each option in the page to be displayed by calling the UEFI interface function HiiGetStringEx(HiiHandle, StringId, Language, TryBestLanguage). That is, use the handle of the option as the HiiHandle parameter, the identifier of the prompt word as the StringId parameter, and the attribute label x-ATTR as the Language. For each option, if the attribute value corresponding to x-ATTR is "HIDE", then do not create this option; if the attribute value corresponding to x-ATTR is "GRAY", then gray out the option, call the library function lv_obj_add_style provided by LVGL to set the transparency to 50%, and call the library function lv_obj_add_state provided by LVGL to set it to the disabled state LV_STATE_DISABLED.

[0125] (6) Respond to the shortcut key operation and refresh the current page

[0126] In step 3, when the electronic device responds to the user's operation of the combination shortcut key Ctrl+Shift+F12 and switches the value of gItemCtrl, it needs to refresh the current page, that is, first delete the current page and then recreate it. The recreated page includes the same options as the current page, but the display attributes are different.

[0127] Applying the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application, if a user needs to hide or gray out an option in the page, they only need to edit the.uni file and add the attribute of the prompt word of this option as "HIDE" or "GRAY". When the electronic device displays the page and creates options, it can directly set the display attributes of this option according to the attributes of the prompt word (when the value of gItemCtrl is ITEM_CTRL_HIDEORGRAY), greatly reducing the amount of code that needs to be added. In addition, the electronic device can also respond to the user's shortcut key operation and quickly switch between dynamic display and hiding or graying out, providing a more intelligent user interface, improving the user experience, improving the efficiency of BIOS developers in diagnosing problems, optimizing the user experience, and improving the security of system configuration.
