Abstract
The invention provides a reliable software upgrade method for a dual-mode terminal, comprising the following steps: firstly, backuping a system module of the current software in the high-address part of a flash memory; secondly, writing a system module of upgrade software in the low-address part of the flash memory; and finally, writing an application program module of the upgrade software in the high-address part of the flash memory to replace the system module of the current software, thus finishing the upgrade process. By using the method provided by the invention, a safe and reliable software upgrade mode can be formed. If accidents occur in the upgrade process or the upgrade process fails, the terminal can automatically upgrade the system again until the update process is finished when the terminal is started next time.
Description
Technical field
The invention provides a kind of method for upgrading software, particularly relate to a kind of method for upgrading software that is used for dual-mode terminal.
Background technology
Dual-mode terminal adopts IP (Internet protocol) upgrade method that its terminal software is upgraded usually, but there are the factors of instability in this method, in case escalation process accident power-off or Network Transmission failure, just the failure of can upgrading makes system the mistake that can't recover occur, can't restart or can't operate as normal such as dual-mode terminal, must rely on the technician to recover mistake and make the terminal operate as normal by complicated operations more.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to avoid cause dual-mode terminal can't recover normal by the upgrading failure, thereby a kind of reliable software upgrade method that is used for dual-mode terminal is proposed, dual-mode terminal is restarted and operate as normal even its technical scheme assurance upgrading failure can not influence yet, and do not need the technician to participate in, terminal system when next time starting upgrades to upgrading automatically again and finishes.
According to the proposed method, current software (early version software program) is divided into system module and two parts of application program module, and upgrade software (new version software program) also is divided into system module and two parts of application program module.Current software also is divided into system module and two parts of application program module.System module is made up of operating system and terminal staging module; Application program module is made up of browser, player and other application programs.Terminal system is the system module of upgrade software and application program module coupling check code separately as the successful sign of upgrading separately automatically in the escalation process.
The system module of the system module of current software and upgrade software and application program module write flash memory in escalation process, and flash memory from being divided into high address and low address two parts in logic, is respectively applied for storage system modules and application program module accordingly.
The upgrade method that the present invention proposes is: at first terminal system backups to the system module of current software the high address part of flash memory; Then obtain the system module of upgrade software, and be system module school check code of generation automatically of upgrade software, the system module and the check code of upgrade software write flash memory low address part from upgrade server; Last terminal system obtains the application program module of upgrade software from upgrade server, and be check code of the automatic generation of application program module of upgrade software, the system module that the application program module and the check code of upgrade software are replaced current software, write flash memory high address part, escalation process is finished.
Adopt the present invention's failure of in escalation process, no matter when upgrading, the system module of current software or the system module of upgrade software, all the time there is one to be kept in the flash memory, as long as system module is normal, terminal system just can restart normally, start the integrality of the check code of corresponding module in back system test flash memory low address and the flash memory high address, because the upgrading failure causes check code imperfect, make system check unsuccessful, system will obtain upgrade software (ROMPaq) automatically from upgrade server, finish until upgrading.
This upgrade method also goes for having IPTV (Web TV) terminal of IP function.
Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is the preservation location drawing of terminal software in flash memory under the normal condition;
Fig. 2 is backup current software (early version) system module figure;
Fig. 3 is that success writes upgrade software (redaction) system module figure;
Fig. 4 is the preservation location drawing of terminal software in flash memory after system upgrade is finished;
Embodiment
The present invention is used for the concrete support that need to implement terminal (having the IP function), upgrade server and internet of reliable software upgrade method of dual-mode terminal.In case software upgrading begins, terminal is connected with upgrade server at first automatically, checks hardware version and software version, version checking by after carry out upgrade software.Method by the present invention proposes can form safe and reliable software upgrading pattern.Occur unexpected in the escalation process or the upgrading failure, terminal will be when starting next time upgrade-system again automatically, finish up to upgrading.
The present invention is in the embodiment of escalation process:
1. first-selected terminal system backups to the early version system module of current software that (this process is labeled as step a) in the flash memory high address.The preservation position of this early version system module in flash memory as shown in Figure 2.If the failure of system cut-off or network data transmission does not influence restarting of terminal in the process of execution in step a, start the back terminal and carry out step a again.
2. terminal system obtains the new version system module of upgrade software behind the completing steps a from upgrade server, and calculate and mate the check code of this system module automatically, (this process is labeled as step b) afterwards new version system module and check code to be write the low address part of flash memory.This new version system module is preserved the position as shown in Figure 3 in flash memory.If system cut-off or network data transmission failure in the process of execution in step b, it is incorrect that system will detect flash memory low address check code partly automatically after terminal is restarted, terminal system partly starts from high address automatically, because the early version system module has backuped in the high address of flash memory in step a before, therefore the terminal terminal system can normally start, and terminal system re-executes step b.
3. terminal system obtains the redaction application program module of upgrade software behind the complete step b from upgrade server, and calculate and mate the check code of this application program module automatically, afterwards redaction application program module and check code are replaced the system module of current software, write the high address part of flash memory, escalation process finishes that (this process is labeled as step c).This redaction should program module be preserved the position as shown in Figure 4 in flash memory.If system cut-off or network data transmission failure in the process of execution in step c, terminal completing steps b can normally start, and restarting the back system, will to detect the high address check code of flash memory automatically incorrect, and terminal system re-executes step c, up to finishing upgrading.
Claims (3)
1. reliable software upgrade method that is used for dual-mode terminal is characterized in that:
-current software is divided into system module and two parts of application program module, and upgrade software is divided into system module and two parts of application program module;
-system module of current software and the system module and the application program module of upgrade software write in the flash memory in escalation process, and flash memory is respectively applied for storage system modules and application program module from being divided into high address and low address two parts in logic;
