Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of automobile function configuration, and in particular to an automobile, a controller, a function configuration software method for the controller, and a storage medium. Background Art
[0002] With the diversification of intelligent vehicles, the same vehicle model (especially commercial vehicles) must adapt to different modules from different manufacturers. For example, different engine types (such as diesel / natural gas engines of varying brands, displacements, and emission standards), transmissions, and other equipment from different manufacturers are required. Because each module comes from different manufacturers and at different price points, functional differences exist between these products. This diversity poses significant challenges to the configuration and execution of corresponding functions by vehicle controllers.
[0003] The functional configuration scheme of traditional automotive controllers is generally as follows: when a configuration is determined, the corresponding functional logic is executed. During execution, a cascade test condition judgment structure is generally used to handle the situation. For example, the main module required for the configuration is determined, the required sub-modules are determined based on each main module, and then the functional type of each sub-module is determined, thus forming the functional configuration code of the configuration. As product cycles accelerate, automotive controllers must adapt to an increasing number of modules (added, deleted, and modified), leading to a corresponding increase in the number of configurations. In this case, the structure determination method based on the aforementioned cascade test conditions results in a significant increase in simple code (a single configuration requires a complete set of code, including main modules, submodules, and function types) and overlap (main modules, submodules, and function types are repeated across different configurations). This not only dramatically increases the amount of code and reduces work efficiency, but also requires modifying the entire code set when a specific function is changed or a new engine type is added, which is prone to errors and poses significant challenges to automotive controller software development and testing. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the defects in the prior art, the present invention solves the technical problem of how to configure the functions of the automobile controller through a small amount of code while improving work efficiency and reducing the probability of error.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, in the first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for configuring the function of a controller, which includes the following steps: creating function type information of the main module based on the function types available for each sub-module and the sub-modules required for each main module; forming function configuration information based on the main modules required for the function configuration and the function type information of each main module.
[0006] In combination with the first aspect, in one embodiment, the process of creating functional type information of the main module based on the functional types available to each sub-module and the sub-modules required by each main module includes: creating functional type mapping information of the sub-module based on the functional types available to each sub-module.
[0007] In combination with the first aspect, in one embodiment, the process of creating the functional type information of the main module based on the functional types available for each sub-module and the sub-modules required by each main module also includes: creating functional type mapping information of the main module based on the sub-modules required by the main module and the functional type mapping information of the sub-modules.
[0008] In combination with the first aspect, in one embodiment, the process of forming functional configuration information based on the main modules required for functional configuration and the functional type information of each main module includes: after determining the main modules required for functional configuration, determining the functional types required by each main module in the functional type mapping information of the main modules; forming functional configuration information based on the main modules required for functional configuration and the functional types required by each main module.
[0009] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a computer-readable storage medium, on which a function configuration program of a controller is stored, and when the computer program is executed, the method provided in the first aspect is implemented.
[0010] In a third aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an automobile controller, which is used to: create function type information of the main module based on the function types available for each sub-module and the sub-modules required for each main module; and form function configuration information based on the main modules required for the function configuration and the function type information of each main module.
[0011] In combination with the third aspect, in one embodiment, the controller includes a sub-module function mapping module, which is used to create sub-module function category mapping information according to the function categories available to each sub-module.
[0012] In combination with the third aspect, in one embodiment, the controller further includes a main module function mapping module, which is used to create function type mapping information of the main module based on the sub-modules required by the main module and the function type mapping information of the sub-modules.
[0013] In combination with the third aspect, in one embodiment, the controller also includes a function configuration module, which is used to: after determining the main module required for the function configuration, determine the function types required by each main module in the function type mapping information of the main module; and form function configuration information based on the main module required for the function configuration and the function types required by each main module.
[0014] In a fourth aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a car, on which the car controller provided by the third aspect is provided.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are: (1) Before performing functional configuration, the present application separates the main module, submodule, and the functions required by the submodule, and then associates each main module with the function type it requires (creating function type information of the main module). In this case, when performing functional configuration, it is only necessary to determine the main module required for the configuration to obtain the function type required for each main module, and each required main module and its required function type can form functional configuration information. Therefore, compared with the prior art in which each functional configuration includes a full set of codes for each main module, the functional configuration information of the present application only includes the main module and the corresponding function, that is, it is only necessary to implement the function of the specific module, and there is no need to pay attention to the various complex relationships between the calibration items and the functions, as well as the functional associations that may exist between the various calibration items. This not only greatly reduces the amount of code and the probability of error, but also significantly improves configuration efficiency. In addition, when a new configuration is added and there are modules or function types that are not included in the new configuration, it is only necessary to add the corresponding modules or function types, which is simple and easy to operate.
[0016] (2) This application clearly and concisely implements complete functional configuration through the functional category mapping information of the submodules, the functional category mapping information of the main module, and the functional configuration information. At the same time, when adding functional configuration, main module, submodule, function or functional category: If the required function already exists, you can choose to match the specific logic in the existing function, that is, simply configure the mapping table information. There is no specific logic code change, and no logical errors will be introduced.
[0017] If the required function does not exist, or no matching type is found in the function, just add a new function or a new type of function, and then update the mapping information. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the basic logic of the configuration function of this application is first briefly described.
[0023] One configuration includes multiple main modules, each of which requires multiple sub-modules. Each sub-module has various functions, for example: The main module is the engine, and one of the required submodules is the engine water temperature regulation. The corresponding function types include water temperature regulation mode 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.
[0024] The embodiments of the present application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] It can be seen from this that before performing functional configuration, the present application splits the main module, sub-module, and the functions required by the sub-module, and then associates each main module with the type of function it requires (creating functional type information of the main module); in this case, when performing functional configuration, it is only necessary to determine the main module required for the configuration to obtain the type of function required for each main module, and each required main module and its required type of function can form functional configuration information. Therefore, compared with the prior art in which each functional configuration includes a full set of codes for each main module, the functional configuration information of the present application only includes the main module and the corresponding function, that is, it is only necessary to implement the function of the specific module, and there is no need to pay attention to the various complex relationships between the calibration items and the functions, as well as the functional associations that may exist between the various calibration items; this not only greatly reduces the amount of code and the probability of error, but also significantly improves configuration efficiency; and when a new configuration is added, and there are modules or functional types that do not exist in the new configuration, it is only necessary to add the corresponding modules or functional types, which is simple and easy to operate.
[0027] The applicant has tested and found that the time required to modify or add a new function configuration through the method of this application is less than 10% of the function configuration method in the existing technology.

[0030] Furthermore, the process of forming the function configuration information according to the main modules required for the function configuration and the function type information of each main module includes: Figure 3 As shown, after determining the main modules required for the functional configuration, the function types required by each main module are determined in the function type mapping information of the main modules; functional configuration information is formed based on the main modules required for the functional configuration and the function types required by each main module.
[0031] It can be concluded that this application has clearly implemented a complete functional configuration through the functional category mapping information of the submodules, the functional category mapping information of the main module, and the functional configuration information. At the same time, when adding functional configuration, main module, submodule, function or functional category: If the required function already exists, you can choose to match the specific logic in the existing function, that is, simply configure the mapping table information. There is no specific logic code change, and no logical errors will be introduced.
[0032] If the required function does not exist, or no matching type is found in the function, just add a new function or a new type of function, and then update the mapping information.
