Patent number: 11645616Abstract: Technologies are described for verifying the integrity of data transmitted between a firmware and a baseboard management controller (“BMC”). During a first verification phase, a data integrity tool compares system inventory data provided by firmware protocols to a system inventory module to system inventory data in a device instance format. During a second verification phase, the data integrity tool verifies operation of a firmware conversion module by comparing the system inventory data in the device instance format to the system inventory data in a JavaScript Object Notation (“JSON”) format. During a third verification phase, the data integrity tool retrieves the system inventory data from a management server and compares the system inventory data retrieved from the management server to the system inventory data previously transmitted to the management server. Identified discrepancies can be utilized to modify the system inventory module, the firmware conversion module, or the management server.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2020Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: AMERICAN MEGATRENDS INTERNATIONAL, LLCInventors: Raj Velusamy Akilan, Manish Jha, Manickavasakam Karpagavinayagam, Igor Kulchytskyy, Altaf Hussain, Harikrishna Doppalapudi

Patent number: 11113070Abstract: Technologies are provided for automated identification of system devices to be disabled in a computing system and the disablement of the system devices during bootup of the computing system. In some embodiments, the computing system can execute a firmware configured to perform a bootup process of the computing system. The computing system includes multiple system devices. The firmware can generate program code for identifying a system device for disablement. The firmware can send the program code to a controller device curing the bootup process, where execution of the program code by the controller device generates data identifying one or several specific system devices to be disabled in the computing system. The firmware can then access such data from the controller device. Using the data, the firmware can determine that a specific system device to be disabled. The firmware can then disable that particular system device on a next bootup process.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2019Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: AMERICAN MEGATRENDS INTERNATIONAL, LLCInventors: Igor Kulchytskyy, Manickavasakam Karpagavinayagam, Viswanathan Swaminathan, Chandrasekar Rathineswaran

Patent number: 10866801Abstract: Non-destructive update of discrete firmware components of a firmware is provided. During a boot-up process, the availability of an update for the firmware can be determined prior to execution thereof. To that end, a controller device can be queried for availability of the update and, when the update is available, a processor that executes the firmware as part of the boot-up process can retrieve an updated version of one or more components of the firmware from a virtual drive device provided by the controller device. The processor can retain such component(s) in a main memory device. The processor can then execute the component(s) from the main memory and can execute other non-updated component(s) of the firmware from a non-volatile memory device that retains the firmware. Therefore, the firmware can be updated during the boot-up process, without changing the contents of the non-volatile memory device.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2019Date of Patent: December 15, 2020Assignee: AMERICAN MEGATRENDS INTERNATIONAL, LLCInventors: Igor Kulchytskyy, Senthamizhsey Subramanian, Bejean David Mosher
