14 results about "SGPIO" patented technology

Serial General Purpose Input/Output (SGPIO) is a four-signal (or four-wire) bus used between a host bus adapter (HBA) and a backplane. Of the four signals, three are driven by the HBA and one by the backplane. Typically, the HBA is a storage controller located inside a server, desktop, rack or workstation computer that interfaces with hard disk drives (HDDs) to store and retrieve data. It is considered an extension of the general-purpose input/output (GPIO) concept.

Fully random testing method, device, equipment, medium and product for SGPIO master module

This invention provides a fully randomized testing method, apparatus, device, medium, and product for an SGPIO master module. The method involves simultaneously transmitting the SGPIO master module's configuration object to the APB driver component, the SGPIO driver component, and the SGPIO sampling component. If the APB bus write transaction is an SGPIO control register configuration transaction, the parallel write data from the APB bus is parsed to obtain configuration information. The configuration object of the SGPIO master module is modified according to the configuration information, enabling the SGPIO driver component or the SGPIO sampling component to promptly change the protocol mode. Multiple reference models for interrupt states are instantiated in the basic test class. In the test case component, the reference model is selected using an override mechanism based on the currently verified interrupt triggering method. By comparing the expected value and the actual value of the interrupt status register, fully randomized verification of the SGPIO master module's interrupt status register value can be achieved. This invention improves the comprehensiveness and effectiveness of SGPIO master module testing.

Protocol-aware hitless firmware update for programmable logic controllers

A programmable logic controller in a powered system performs a hitless firmware update coordinated with a management controller. The management controller stages updated firmware and asserts a freeze signal. In response, and before any I / O-state freeze, the programmable logic controller proactively drives each communication interface that it is actively mastering (e.g., I²C, SPI, SGPIO) to a protocol-defined idle state by completing any in-progress transaction, issuing an end-of-transfer condition, and pausing further transactions. The controller then freezes its I / O pin states for a bounded interval, receives a reload command, and switches execution to the staged firmware. After the reload, the controller unfreezes its I / O and resumes normal operation. This protocol-aware quiesce prevents mid-transaction bus lock and enables reliable remote firmware updates without removing system power.
