1、常见的升级方式
1.1、应用程序升级
优点:在图形化界面操作,只需要选中升级文件并点击升级即可,操作简单;
缺点:应用程序必须能正常启动,当程序出现bug就不能升级,可靠性差;
总结:操作简单,适合用户;
1.2、uboot下tftp升级
优点:只要uboot能正常运行就可以通过tftp升级,可靠性高;
缺点:需要连接串口和网线,并需要在局域网搭建tftp服务器,操作麻烦;
总结:适用于开发人员,当应用程序起不来的时候去升级;
1.3、uboot下U盘自动升级
优点:只需要将升级文件拷贝到U盘,插上U盘并重启,只要uboot能正常工作即可自动升级,操作简单,可靠性高;
缺点:设备每次启动都要去探测U盘,增加启动时间;
总结:U盘自动升级适用于当设备出现问题并且不方便搭建网络升级环境时使用;
2、uboot下U盘自动升级的步骤
(1)将提供的镜像文件拷贝到自备的U盘;
(2)插上U盘;
(3)重启设备;
(4)等待升级完成;
3、流程设计
4、uboot移植
4.1、uboot需要支持的功能
(1)使能USB OHCI:支持uboot识别U盘;
(2)MMC驱动移植:uboot能初始化U盘;
(3)FAT文件系统支持:uboot能挂载U盘,并以FAT32格式去读取U盘上的内容;
4.2、uboot移植的步骤
(1)uboot代码先使能USB OHCI、移植MMC驱动、支持FAT文件系统;
(2)在uboot的命令行,通过手动敲命令去测试U盘,先达到能正确识别并挂载U盘,能把U盘里的内容读取到内存或者烧写到flash中;
(3)将第二步的测试过程,封装成uboot下的一个命令,然后在bootcmd里添加这个命令,这样每次uboot启动都会去尝试U盘升级;
5、手动实现U盘升级程序

(4)fatload usb 0 0x43000000 u-boot.bin:将usb 0设备的u-boot.bin文件写到内存地址0x43000000处;
6、实现开机自动识别U盘并升级程序
#原来的bootcmd
bootcmd=partload kernel;bootm 0x44000000
# 支持U盘自动升级的bootcmd
bootcmd=usbupdate;partload kernel;bootm 0x44000000
(1)将uboot终端下手动升级的过程封装成一个命令,假设是usbupdate命令;
(2)在bootcmd中添加usbupdate命令,这样每次uboot在启动内核前都会去执行U盘自动升级的过程;
7、U盘识别失败:## Valid DOS partition found
