Currently, the method for implementing firmware loading by SSD is as follows: and powering on the SSD to run a BootRom program, reading a BootLoader program from a NandFlash fixed block/page address by BootRom, running the BootLoader program, and loading the whole system firmware after the BootLoader program is run, thereby realizing the loading of the whole system firmware. This requires that the fixed block/page in NandFlash for storing the BootLoader has good stability, and in addition, the BootRom program is fixed in the ROM and is not changeable, so that once the BootLoader fails to be read, the SSD becomes a waste disk due to failure of loading the firmware. Meanwhile, since blocks with better stability of the NandFlash particles with different protocols and different models are not generally uniform, SSD manufacturers are required to select blocks with better stability for different particles as much as possible to store BootLoader programs, so as to ensure that BootRom can correctly read the BootLoader programs from the fixed blocks, that is, the BootRom programs of the current SSD have poor compatibility with the NandFlash particles. .
Based on the above, the invention provides a firmware loading method for a solid state disk, in the method, after an SSD system is powered on and operated, a BootRom program firstly reads system management information to an SRAM1 address, obtains the address information of a BootLoader stored in NandFlash from the system management information, reads the BootLoader program stored in the NandFlash to an SRAM2 address, and then a CPU jumps to an SRAM2 address to start operating the BootLoader program. And the BootLoader program stores address information in NandFlash according to the full-system firmware in the management information of the SRAM1, reads the full-system firmware to the SRAM3 address, and then the CPU jumps to the SRAM3 address to start executing the full-system firmware, thereby completing the loading process of the full-system firmware.
In the mass production stage, the initialization of system management information is completed through a low-level command when a mass production program is operated, in the process of executing a command of downloading BootLoader and full-system firmware, firstly, storage address information is dynamically applied in a block of system data stored in NandFlash, then the BootLoader and the full-system firmware are stored in corresponding NandFlash, and finally, the storage address information is updated to the system management information.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, there is provided a firmware loading method for a solid state disk, the method including:
step 102, operating a BootRom program after the solid state disk is powered on and started, and initializing a NandFlash controller through the BootRom program;
step 104, reading the whole system management information in the NandFlash to a first address appointed by the SRAM;
106, finding the position of the BootLoader program in the NandFlash from the full system management information, and loading the BootLoader program to a second address appointed by the SRAM;
step 108, performing CRC check on the BootLoader program;
step 110, if the BootLoader program is verified successfully, the BootRom program jumps to a second address appointed by the SRAM and runs the BootLoader program;
step 112, the BootLoader program finds the storage position of the system data full-system firmware program in the NandFlash from the full-system management information at the first address specified by the SRAM, and loads the full-system firmware program to the third address specified by the SRAM;
step 114, performing CRC check on the whole system firmware program;
and step 116, if the full-system firmware program is successfully verified, jumping to a third address specified by the SRAM by the BootLoader program, and operating the full-system firmware program.
In this embodiment, a method for loading firmware of a solid state disk is provided, and a specific implementation process of the method is as follows:
firstly, a BootRom program is operated after the solid state disk is powered on and started, and a NandFlash controller is initialized through the BootRom program. BootRom is a small block of mask ROM or write-protected flash memory embedded within the processor chip. It contains the first code that the processor executes upon power-up or reset. Depending on the configuration of certain tape pins or internal fuses, it may decide where to load the next portion of code to be executed from and how to verify its correctness or validity.
And then, reading the full-system management information in the NandFlash to a first address appointed by the SRAM through a BootRom program. If the reading is successful, the position of the BootLoader program in the NandFlash is directly found from the management information of the whole system, and the BootLoader program is loaded to a second address appointed by an SRAM (Static Random-Access Memory). The Bootloader program is responsible for finding and loading the final operating system or firmware that should run on the chip.
Then, CRC check is performed on the BootLoader program. Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC), which is a commonly used check code with error detection and correction capabilities, can be used for data check of synchronous communication between an external memory and a computer.
And if the BootLoader program is successfully verified, jumping to a second address specified by the SRAM by the BootRom program and operating the BootLoader program. And the BootLoader program finds the storage position of the system data full-system firmware program in the NandFlash from the full-system management information at the first address specified by the SRAM, and loads the full-system firmware program to the third address specified by the SRAM.
And finally, performing CRC on the whole system firmware program. And if the whole system firmware program is successfully verified, jumping to a third address appointed by the SRAM by the BootLoader program, and operating the whole system firmware program.
In this embodiment, in the SSD mass production phase, since the block/page address of the BootLoader program is stored and dynamically applied, and the address information is updated to the system management information, after the BootRom program runs, the BootLoader program is no longer read from the NandFlash fixed block/page address, but the block/page address information of the BootLoader stored in the system management information is read first, and then the BootLoader is read from the block/page of the NandFlash and run. Therefore, once the SSD fails to read the BootLoader, the SSD can return to the mass production stage to re-download the BootLoader program to other block/page addresses of the NandFlash, and the risk that the SSD becomes a waste disk due to the failure of loading the BootLoader is effectively avoided. Meanwhile, as the download address is not fixed any more, the BootRom has good compatibility with different NandFlash particles with different protocols.
