Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage of this method is that to upgrade the firmware, the operating system software version needs to be upgraded first, which consumes too much time
In addition, bundling firmware and operating system upgrades also has the problem of inflexible management and maintenance
In order to solve this problem, a method of separately upgrading the firmware and the operating system has appeared in the prior art, but when the firmware and the operating system are separately upgraded, if there are multiple firmware to be upgraded at the same time, the upgrade of each firmware will produce Conflicts, and even lead to problems with upgrade failures

Abstract

The invention provides a multi-peripheral firmware upgrading control method, intelligent equipment, firmware and electronic equipment. The method comprises the following steps: receiving upgrading requests sent by a plurality of firmware to be upgraded respectively, wherein the upgrading requests comprise firmware identifiers of the firmware to be upgraded, dependency relationships between the firmware to be upgraded and other firmware to be upgraded, and target version number information of the firmware to be upgraded; according to the upgrading requests sent by the multiple pieces of firmware to be upgraded respectively, the dependency relationship between each piece of firmware to be upgraded and other pieces of firmware to be upgraded is obtained; and according to the dependency relationship between each to-be-upgraded firmware and other to-be-upgraded firmware and the target version number information of each to-be-upgraded firmware, performing downloading and upgrading control onthe to-be-upgraded firmware. According to the firmware upgrading method and device, during upgrading control, the dependency relationship among the to-be-upgraded firmware is considered, so that thereliability of multi-firmware upgrading can be effectively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of equipment upgrades, in particular to a multi-peripheral firmware upgrade control method, intelligent equipment, firmware and electronic equipment. Background technique [0002] The current mainstream Internet of Things operating system supports a wide range of microcontroller chips, and some high-performance chips externally expand various peripheral devices, such as electronic control devices in the field of home appliances, touch devices and various peripheral communication devices. In addition to the need to update the IoT operating system software running on the main control chip, each peripheral device also has solidified firmware that needs to be upgraded. [0003] For the firmware that needs to be upgraded in each peripheral device of the Internet of Things device, the existing upgrade implementation solution mainly integrates the firmware version into the operating system of the Internet of Things...
