This technical scheme operation flow is simple, and is efficient, and manual work, time, equipment cost are low, can realize large-scale full upgrade to make also volume production shipment when there is potential safety risk in bluetooth SOC manufacturer's protocol stack, show safety defect back at the protocol stack, can realize the urgent aerial restoration and the upgrading update of protocol stack, in order to avoid appearing the loss that the protocol stack is attacked and bring.

Fig. 1 shows a flowchart of a protocol upgrading method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 1, the protocol upgrading method includes the following steps S101-S103:

in step S101, in response to detecting that a new protocol firmware program exists, downloading the new protocol firmware program to a local cache through an old protocol firmware program;

in step S102, the protocol upgrade parameters are marked;

As mentioned above, the application of bluetooth technology in the field of internet of things is very wide at present, and in particular, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology which is characterized by low power consumption is a significant feature. However, with the rapid increase of the number of bluetooth devices, the communication security of bluetooth becomes a problem that needs to be paid more and more attention, and especially, the non-open protocol stacks provided by different bluetooth SOC manufacturers have various communication security risks, and if the security problems of the protocol stacks occur after the bluetooth SOC is used in mass production, the bluetooth SOC is difficult to repair, and the risk of attack is very high. In the prior art, a bluetooth SOC manufacturer usually performs protocol stack upgrading by programming a hardware interface, and the protocol stack upgrading method by programming the hardware interface needs to use a data line to connect a bluetooth system and a computer, so that each bluetooth device needs to be completed manually or by devices in an auxiliary manner when upgrading, the efficiency is very low, the labor, time and device costs required to be spent are very high, and large-scale full-scale upgrading cannot be performed.

In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks, in this embodiment, a protocol upgrading method is proposed, which implements over-the-air upgrading of a protocol stack by means of over-the-air downloading and migration of protocol stack files. This technical scheme operation flow is simple, and is efficient, and manual work, time, equipment cost are low, can realize large-scale full upgrade to make also volume production shipment when there is potential safety risk in bluetooth SOC manufacturer's protocol stack, show safety defect back at the protocol stack, can realize the urgent aerial restoration and the upgrading update of protocol stack, in order to avoid appearing the loss that the protocol stack is attacked and bring.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the protocol upgrading method may be applied to a protocol upgrading party, such as a computer, a computing device, and an electronic device, that performs upgrading processing on a preset protocol.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the protocol refers to a data operation rule established for achieving a certain data operation purpose, such as a network data transmission protocol, a bluetooth communication protocol, and the like. When the protocol is a bluetooth communication protocol, the protocol upgrading party may be, for example, a bluetooth chip, device, terminal, system, etc. that transmits data using the bluetooth communication protocol. For ease of explanation and illustration, the present disclosure will be described below with reference to a bluetooth communication protocol as an example.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the local cache refers to a cache region or a cache device local to the protocol upgrading party, for example, when the protocol upgrading party is a bluetooth chip, the local cache may be an Over-the-Air (OTA) cache region in the bluetooth chip.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the protocol upgrade parameter refers to a parameter used to indicate whether a protocol firmware program has been updated or is to be updated, where the protocol upgrade parameter may be stored in a preset area, and when the protocol upgrade party is a bluetooth chip, the protocol upgrade parameter may be stored in an OTA parameter area in the bluetooth chip. For example, in this embodiment, when the protocol upgrade parameter is marked, it may be considered that the new protocol firmware program has been downloaded to the local cache, and the new protocol firmware program needs to be read from the local cache to overwrite or replace the previous old protocol firmware program. The protocol upgrade parameter may be marked by using a plurality of methods, for example, the protocol upgrade parameter may be marked as a preset fixed character, for example, the protocol upgrade parameter is marked as 1 whenever a new protocol firmware program is detected to exist and downloaded, and the protocol upgrade parameter is restored to 0 when the new protocol firmware program is detected not to exist and downloaded; or marking the protocol upgrading parameter according to a preset character change rule, for example, adding 1 to the protocol upgrading parameter every time a new protocol firmware program is detected to exist and the new protocol firmware program is downloaded, and keeping the protocol upgrading parameter unchanged when the new protocol firmware program is detected not to exist and the protocol firmware program is not downloaded.

In the above embodiment, if it is detected that a new protocol firmware program exists, the new protocol firmware program is downloaded to a local cache through an old protocol firmware program, then a protocol upgrade parameter is marked, and then the new protocol firmware program in the local cache is read, and the new protocol firmware program is used to cover the old protocol firmware program, thereby completing the over-the-air upgrade and update of the protocol firmware program. The steps can be guided and completed by a bootstrap program preset at the protocol upgrading party, when the protocol upgrading party is a Bluetooth chip, the bootstrap program can be burnt into the Bluetooth chip in advance, and the protocol upgrading parameters in the OTA parameter area can be guided and checked to see whether marked or not every time the Bluetooth chip is started, namely whether a new protocol firmware program exists or not.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method may further include the steps of:

In this embodiment, it is determined whether a new protocol firmware program is present by means of the connection device and the cloud device, wherein the new protocol firmware program is stored in advance on the cloud device. Specifically, the protocol upgrading party is connected with the connection device through bluetooth, and the connection device can be connected with the cloud device through data transmission paths such as a mobile network, a fixed network, a WIFI network, a local area network and the like. The protocol upgrading party sends version information of the protocol firmware program currently used by the protocol upgrading party to the connecting equipment so that the connecting equipment confirms whether a new protocol firmware program exists currently or not based on communication with the cloud equipment. The connection device refers to a device for connecting the protocol upgrading party and the cloud device and establishing a communication channel between the protocol upgrading party and the cloud device, and the connection device may be a device such as a mobile phone.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the step S102, namely, the step of marking the protocol upgrade parameter, may be implemented as:

In order to guarantee the security of downloaded data, after the new protocol firmware program is downloaded to a local cache, transmission verification is also performed on the downloaded new protocol firmware program, wherein the transmission verification can comprise verification contents such as transmission correctness verification, transmission security verification, transmission validity verification and the like, and when the new protocol firmware program is determined to pass the transmission verification, namely the new protocol firmware program is determined to be correct, safe and legal, the protocol upgrading parameter is marked so as to start a subsequent protocol firmware program upgrading process.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the step S102, after marking the protocol upgrade parameter, may further include the following steps:

and restarting.

As mentioned above, the bootstrap program pre-burned into the bluetooth chip checks whether the protocol upgrade parameter in the OTA parameter area is marked at each start-up, i.e. whether a new protocol firmware program exists, and therefore, in this embodiment, a restart step is performed before detecting whether the protocol upgrade parameter is marked.

the communication is performed using the new protocol firmware program.

In this embodiment, after the old protocol firmware program is overwritten with the new protocol firmware program and the upgrade update of the protocol firmware program is completed, the communication using the new protocol firmware program is performed.

Fig. 2 shows a flowchart of a protocol upgrading method according to another embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 2, the protocol upgrading method includes the following steps S201-S203:

in step S201, in response to receiving a connection request sent by a connection device, establishing a connection with the connection device;

in step S202, acquiring version information of a preset protocol firmware program;

in step S203, when it is determined that the connection device meets the condition of the preset grayscale parameter, in response to receiving a version information acquisition request sent by the connection device, sending the version information of the preset protocol firmware program to the connection device, or in response to receiving the version information of the protocol upgrade party 'S current protocol firmware program sent by the connection device, comparing the version information of the protocol upgrade party' S current protocol firmware program with the version information of the preset protocol firmware program, and sending a comparison result to the connection device.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the protocol upgrading method may be applied to a cloud device such as a computer, a computing device, an electronic device, a server cluster, and the like, which performs upgrading processing on a preset protocol.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset protocol firmware program refers to a preset protocol firmware program, for example, when the protocol is a network data transmission protocol, the preset protocol firmware program refers to a network data transmission protocol firmware program, and when the protocol is a bluetooth communication protocol, the preset protocol firmware program refers to a bluetooth communication protocol firmware program.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the grayscale parameter refers to a parameter required for performing grayscale processing, where the grayscale processing refers to a regional and batch upgrade processing method for ensuring stability of program upgrade and obtaining test verification or differentiated test results to control rhythm and range of program upgrade, and therefore, the grayscale parameter may be, for example, device identification information for performing upgrade in batches, regional range for performing upgrade in batches, upgrade program version information, system version information, related hardware version information, and other parameters. The device meeting the preset gray parameter condition can be considered as a device meeting the current upgrading operation condition, is in the range of the current upgrading operation, and can subsequently carry out upgrading operation.

In the embodiment, if a connection request sent by a connection device is received, connection is established with the connection device through data transmission paths such as a mobile network, a fixed network, a WIFI network, a local area network and the like; then obtaining version information of a preset protocol firmware program, wherein the preset protocol firmware program is stored in the cloud equipment; when the connecting equipment is determined to meet the condition of a preset gray scale parameter, if a version information acquisition request sent by the connecting equipment is received, sending the version information of the preset protocol firmware program to the connecting equipment so that the connecting equipment judges whether a new protocol firmware program exists or not according to the version information of the preset protocol firmware program, namely whether program upgrading is needed or not; if the current protocol firmware program version information of the protocol upgrading party sent by the connecting equipment is received, comparing the current protocol firmware program version information of the protocol upgrading party with the preset protocol firmware program version information, and sending a comparison result, such as consistency or inconsistency, needing to be upgraded or not needing to be upgraded to the connecting equipment, namely, judging whether the program is needed to be upgraded or not by the cloud equipment.

In order to send the preset protocol firmware program to the connection device in time when needed, and then send the preset protocol firmware program to the protocol upgrading party through the connection device, in this embodiment, the preset protocol firmware program and the grayscale parameter need to be received in advance and stored.

After the cloud equipment or the connection equipment judges that program upgrading is needed, the connection equipment sends a preset protocol firmware program obtaining request to the cloud equipment to obtain a new preset protocol firmware program, and at the moment, the cloud equipment can send the preset protocol firmware program to the connection equipment according to the request so that the connection equipment forwards the preset protocol firmware program to the protocol upgrading party for protocol upgrading.
