Yocto concept and support for dual version firmware upgrad and boot
|
JH
Hi,
Are there any Yocto recipes to support dual version control for firmware image upgrade and boot? The scenario is to make 2 partitions, one partition to install a work version of image, say v1.0, another partition to install a development version of image, say v1.1, the boot process should pick up the highest the version v1.1 first, if it fails to boot, it retreats back to boot old version v1.0. Appreciate any tips or reference for that implementation in Yocto. Thank you. Kind regards, - jupiter |

Hi,
I've been experimenting with mender a bit lately. Works great so far and it's fully integrated into yocto: https://mender.io/ There are a few other solutions available for Yocto: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/System_Update#Comparison Regards, Cyril ________________________________________ From: yocto-bounces@...

Thanks Jaquier, did you run mender in an embedded system?

I've heard good things about swupdate, and it can be used to implement your design: https://sbabic.github.io/swupdate/overview.html#double-copy-with-fall-back Ross |

Only on a Raspberry Pi 3 so far (uboot supported is already present for it).
