Disclosed in embodiments of the present application are a BIOS problem locating method and apparatus, and a medium. The method includes: constructing functional modules according to historical sample data; according to node information corresponding to each functional module, dividing data codes corresponding to the functional modules into data sub-codes; determining target identifier information according to correspondence between the data sub-codes and identifier information; when a problem occurs to a certain data sub-code, storing the target identifier information to a preset memory; and if an anomaly occurs to BIOS operation, according to the target identifier information recorded in the memory, quickly locating the abnormal target data sub-code.

BIOS problem positioning method and apparatus, and computer readable storage medium

The present application relates to the technical field of computers. Disclosed are a starting method and apparatus for an Advanced RISC Machine (ARM) server, an ARM server, and a non-volatile computer-readable storage medium. The method includes: after a Basic Input Output System (BIOS) is started, setting a clock frequency of an Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) bus to a preset clock frequency by using the BIOS, where the preset clock frequency is a clock frequency at which a baseboard management controller (BMC) reads real-time clock (RTC) time through the I2C bus; initializing the I2C bus by using the BIOS, and starting and entering an operating system; reading the RTC time through the I2C bus by using the BIOS, and determining whether the BIOS successfully reads the RTC time; and if the BIOS successfully reads the RTC time, displaying, under the operating system, system time corresponding to the RTC time.

Arm server and starting method and apparatus therefor, and readable storage medium

A method and an apparatus for data interaction between a BIOS and a BMC of a server, a device and a readable storage medium. According to the state of an IPMI link between a BIOS and a BMC, it is determined whether to perform data interaction. At the same time, whether the BMC cannot be activated due to abnormalities are determined by confirming whether the number of times of restarting the server reaches preset threshold at the BDS stage of the BIOS. When the number of times of restarting the server reaches the preset threshold and the BMC is still not activated, the BMC is determined to be abnormal. When the number of times of restarting the server has not yet reached preset threshold, the BIOS performs the action of restarting system, wherein preset threshold is confirmed by a variable self-defined inside the BIOS and may be set freely.

Method and apparatus for data interaction between BIOS and BMC of server, and device

A method for supporting TCM communication by a BIOS of an ARM server, including: setting an access mode of a LPC bus device to a 4-byte mode by means of a BIOS of an ARM server; causing the BIOS to perform data communication with a TCM chip of the LPC bus device in the 4-byte mode; in response to the BIOS reading a register by means of the LPC bus device, determining a type of the register; in response to determining that the type of the register is a specific FIFO register, changing a control register from the 4-byte mode to a single-byte mode, and performing single-byte read-write on the specific FIFO register; and in response to completion of read-write of the specific FIFO register, changing the control register to the 4-byte mode by means of the BIOS, and performing a read-write operation on other FIFO registers.
