the processing unit is used for updating the first firmware according to the updating data packet; generating first information by using the update data packet for the first firmware; detecting whether an updating request for the updating data packet sent by a second electronic device is received; when the update request is received, generating a first instruction, wherein the first instruction is used for controlling the second electronic equipment to update the first firmware according to the update data packet;
a transmitting unit, configured to broadcast the first information.
The processing unit is specifically configured to determine whether the receiving unit detects broadcast information of an update packet for the first firmware; when the broadcast information of the update packet for the first firmware is detected; extracting version information of an update data packet from the broadcast information; judging whether the version information meets a second preset condition, wherein the second preset condition is that the version information is newer than that of the currently installed first firmware; when the version information meets a second preset condition, determining third electronic equipment for sending the broadcast information according to the broadcast information, and acquiring an update data packet aiming at the first firmware from the third electronic equipment.
The processing unit is specifically configured to acquire source address information from the broadcast information by analyzing the broadcast information, and determine the third electronic device according to the acquired source address information.
Preferably, the sending unit is specifically configured to send an update request to the third electronic device; the processing unit then receives control of the third electronic device to perform an update for the first firmware according to the update data packet.
The broadcasting the first information may be that the first electronic device sends the first information to all electronic devices connected thereto.
The method for controlling the second electronic device to update the first firmware according to the update data packet may include, but is not limited to, the following two ways: firstly, sending an update data packet to second electronic equipment, analyzing the received update data packet by the second electronic equipment, and independently updating a first firmware according to the analyzed update data packet; and secondly, after the update data packet is sent to the second electronic equipment, controlling the second electronic equipment to analyze the received update data packet, and controlling the second electronic equipment to complete the update of the first firmware by using the analyzed update data packet according to the installation script.

The third instruction may control to store the second update request in the cache, extract the second update request from the cache after controlling the second electronic device to complete the update, and control the fifth electronic device to perform the update according to the second update request.
It can be understood that, in this scenario, although only the second update request sent by one fifth electronic device is mentioned, in fact, the first electronic device may control the electronic devices sending the update requests to update one by one according to the sequence of receiving the update requests in order to receive the update requests.
In the system shown in fig. 2, since each server can perform the same operation, by adopting the system provided in this embodiment, the operating efficiency of firmware update can be improved, for example, in the scenario shown in fig. 7, assuming that the topmost server is the first server performing firmware update, and after the server controls N servers in the next layer to perform update, the N servers continue to control the next M servers to perform update.
Therefore, by adopting the scheme, the first information of the update data packet aiming at the firmware can be broadcasted among the electronic equipment, and the other electronic equipment is controlled to carry out the update operation of the firmware by using the update data packet according to the update request sent by the other electronic equipment. Therefore, misoperation caused by manual upgrading of the firmware is avoided, and the transmission speed of the update data packet is increased.
