Abstract
An application upgrade method, performed by a data processing unit (DPU), includes that when upgrading a first application program in a plurality of application programs running on the DPU, the DPU reads pre-upgrade data of the first application program from a shared storage area of an internal memory in the DPU, and restores a service of the first application program based on the pre-upgrade data.
Claims21
A method implemented by a data processing unit (DPU), wherein the method comprises:
- upgrading a first application program in application programs running on the DPU;
- reading pre-upgrade data of the first application program from a shared storage area that is of an internal memory in the DPU and that is inaccessible to an operating system of the DPU;
- and
- restoring a service of the first application program based on the pre-upgrade data.
