Problems solved by technology

[0002] During the daily server motherboard BIOS development and maintenance process, there will always be such problems. 1) A motherboard may be applied to chassis of different heights, such as 1U, 2U, etc.; 2) A model of motherboard may be derived due to product needs. Different models of motherboards, but the content changes little, such as changing the model of the onboard network card, onboard storage controller, etc.; 3) Different customers customize their server BIOS options or functions, such as changing the customer LOGO, customizing Changing the default value of BIOS options and adding special functions proposed by customers themselves; the above situation will cause great difficulties for BIOS development and maintenance. If you need to maintain a set of BIOS codes for the above different requirements, it is obvious that the maintenance workload is too large, and When a problem is solved and the BIOS code needs to be updated, each of the above versions needs to be modified separately, which is very cumbersome and error-prone

Embodiment Construction

[0016] The content of the present invention is described in more detail below:

[0017] Refer to the attached figure 1 , the present invention is carried out implementation process description:

[0018] S10: On the basis of a set of BIOS codes, sort out the differences in functional requirements of different customers, so that they can be treated differently.

[0019] S11: According to different functional differences, define different BIOS_Customer_ID values, and implement functional distinctions for different BIOS_Customer_IDs in the code.

[0020] S12: For different customers, before compiling the BIOS code, modify the value of BIOS_Customer_ID and compile the BIOS file to meet the needs of customers in different scenarios.

Abstract

The invention provides a method easy for BIOS (basic input / output system) code maintenance and management and relates to the field of computer communications. The method includes that one BIOS_Customer_ID (identity) is added on the basis of a set of BIOS codes according to requirements of different customers or scenarios; different BIOS_Customer_ID number values are defined on the basis of different requirements; BIOS function distinction is performed in the BIOS codes according to difference of the BIOS_Customer_ID. The requirements on difference of the different customers or scenarios are met by the aid of the BIOS codes. Compared with a traditional method that BIOS codes are respectively maintained for different customers or requirements, the method applied above is easy for BIOS code maintenance and management, number of the BIOS codes to be maintained is reduced, repeated workload can be effectively reduced, the probability of errors can be reduced, and efficiency in maintaining the BIOS codes can be greatly increased.
