Description
Technical field
This application involves electronic technology field more particularly to a kind of firmware upgrade backup methods and device.
Background technology
Current home terminal device, such as home gateway, set-top box, the general embedded system for using software and hardware integration
System.Embedded system hardware is generally using dedicated system grade chip (System on Chip, SOC) processing chip, and money is configured
The limited random access memory in source (Random Access Memory, RAM) and flash memory (Flash Memory), size according to
Demand strictly customizes, very sensitive to cost.Built-in system software is generally existed in manufacture by proprietary tool subregion programming
In flash storage, it is standby to be basically divided into Boot loader (Bootloader) subregion, system software subregion, system software
Part subregion, user's application and data partition, as shown in Figure 1.Wherein, Bootloader subregions are performed after terminal device powers up
First segment code completes the initialization of central processing unit (Central Processing Unit, CPU) and related hardware at it
And then operating system mirror image is loaded into memory (i.e. RAM) and start-up operation system operation, Bootloader support from
Flash is read, and can also pass through boot protocol (Bootstrap Protocol, BOOTP) or Simple File Transfer Protocol
(Trivial File Transfer Protocol, TFTP) downloads start-up operation system image.System software is deposited in main partition
There are operating system mirror image and preset application and data.System software backup subregion is the backup to system software subregion.
Embedded device firmware updates, usually in order to solve existing firmware defects or in order to upgrade new function, mainly
Erasing replacement is carried out to the system software area on Flash, operating system is updated, updates preset application and data.In firmware liter
During grade, once breaking down, such as power-off, bad block will lead to system software Flash partition programming failure, and equipment is by nothing
Method normally starts, and operation maintenance personnel is needed to visit and recycles replacement, cost is high.Therefore, firmware upgrade at present generally uses active and standby point
The method in area.By setting active and standby two subregions to system software, so as to ensure when firmware upgrade is broken down, can restore
Roll back to it is former can normal operation firmware version operation.
At present, people have extensive joint demand to home gateway and set-top box.It is more next during house decoration network layout
More domestic consumers reservation networks information panel on video wall so that the possibility of the deployed position overlapping of two terminal devices
It is increasing.The convergent terminal equipment of home gateway and set-top box, abbreviation pattern of fusion home gateway, pattern of fusion home gateway can
Home terminal number is reduced, reduces the cost of investment of operator or user in equipment, while HP M point can be reduced,
O＆M efficiency is improved, simplifies maintenance work.
Existing pattern of fusion home gateway includes two formants of network element and set-top box unit, wherein, network element
Main negative offer external network access and home intranet service, set-top box unit are mainly responsible for audio and video live streaming and point multicast function,
Numerous other business are also carried in the form of application in the unit.
Due to currently still existing without network element and the integrated one chip of set-top box unit, therefore pattern of fusion home network
The network of pass currently and set-top box unit independent operating, possesses respectively independent holonomic system, that is, possesses respective independent respectively
The hardware such as CPU, RAM, Flash, Bootloader, system software and user's application and data.Network element and set-top box unit
Between pass through internal network interface connection.Existing pattern of fusion home gateway system block diagram is as shown in Figure 2.
Since network element and set-top box unit are autonomous system in pattern of fusion home gateway, if using existing firmware
Upgrade failure restoration methods that is, using the method for the active and standby subregion of system software, then need network element and set-top box unit to distinguish
Firmware backup subregion is provided simultaneously with, so as to increase the requirement to Flash capacity namely increase setting for pattern of fusion home gateway
Count cost.
