Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the firmware upgrade fault-tolerant mechanism of the prior art, it is generally detected that the new firmware of the remote upgrade cannot be started normally, and it is processed by firmware rollback. The new firmware can be started normally, but the terminal frequently restarts or restarts during operation. When the terminal cannot connect to the cloud platform, the existing fault-tolerant mechanism cannot perform the operation of rolling back the firmware, and in the event of a network failure, it cannot perform remote operations or check the terminal. It is prone to operating system failure of the terminal device, resulting in the failure of the terminal device. Use, affect user experience

Abstract

The invention discloses a terminal equipment firmware upgrading control method and device, computer equipment and a medium, and the method comprises the steps: adopting a first bootstrap program to guide and execute a first application program, and storing the first application program in a first application program area; executing firmware exception judgment and firmware rollback according to the first application program, wherein the firmware exception comprises a terminal starting fault and a terminal connection cloud platform fault; when firmware operation abnormity occurs, a second application program is guided to be executed by adopting a second guide program, and the second application program is stored in a second application program area; and performing abnormal problem checking on the terminal equipment according to the second application program. According to the method and the device, by setting the double boot regions and the double application program regions, remote firmware upgrading exception judgment, program rollback and remote exception problem troubleshooting during cloud platform connection faults are executed, so that the fault tolerance performance of various problems in the firmware upgrading and running process is improved, and the reliability of firmware upgrading is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of firmware upgrade, and in particular, to a terminal device firmware upgrade control method, device, computer equipment and medium. Background technique [0002] Firmware is a program stored inside a hardware device to drive the device to run. Generally, a user remotely upgrades the firmware of a terminal device through a cloud platform or cloud management platform. [0003] In the fault-tolerant mechanism of firmware upgrade in the prior art, when it is detected that the new firmware upgraded remotely cannot be started normally, it is processed by means of firmware rollback. The new firmware can be started normally, but the terminal frequently restarts or restarts during operation. When the terminal cannot connect to the cloud platform, the existing fault tolerance mechanism cannot perform the operation of rolling back the firmware, and cannot perform remote operations or check the terminal when a ...
