[0038] The following is a description of exemplary embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, including various details of the embodiments of the present application to facilitate understanding, which should be considered as merely exemplary. Therefore, it should be recognized by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes and modifications can be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present application. Similarly, for the sake of clarity and conciseness, the description of well-known functions and structures is omitted in the following description.

[0039] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart of an upgrade method provided by this application, such as Figure 1As shown, the method is applied to a first electronic device, and the method comprises the following steps:

[0040] Step S101: Cache the first upgrade content of the upgrade task.

[0041] Among them, the above-mentioned first electronic device can be a smart home device, such as a smart TV, a smart camera, a smart speaker, a smart air conditioner, a smart door lock, etc., or the above-mentioned first electronic device can be a smart mobile device, such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, etc., or the above-mentioned first electronic device can be a smart wearable device, such as a smart watch, a smart bracelet, etc., or the above-mentioned first electronic device can be a smart Internet of Vehicles device, such as a smart car machine, a smart rearview mirror, etc., or the above-mentioned first electronic device can be a smart robot, such as an early education robot, a companion robot, a security robot, etc.

[0042] The above-mentioned upgrade task may be an upgrade task of an operating system or an APP installed on an electronic device, and the upgrade task may be an upgrade task for upgrading requirements such as updating, function iteration, and repairing functions.

[0043] The first upgrade content may be a related upgrade data package for the upgrade task.

[0044] The first upgrade content of the above-mentioned cache upgrade task may be that after the terminal receives the upgrade content sent by the second electronic device, it does not perform the upgrade operation due to some reasons, and then caches the above-mentioned first upgrade content, for example: the first upgrade content is not used for the upgrade operation due to reasons such as the first electronic device or the user of the first electronic device.

[0045] The second electronic device may be a server, or other electronic devices used to send upgrade content.

[0046] Step S102: sending an upgrade request to the second electronic device, wherein the upgrade request carries a task identifier of the upgrade task and a timestamp corresponding to the first upgrade content.

[0047] The sending of the upgrade request to the second electronic device may be that after caching the first upgrade content, the first electronic device sends the upgrade request proactively or at the request of the second electronic device. The second electronic device may be a server or other electronic device that publishes upgrade content.

[0048] In the present application, each upgrade task corresponds to a unique task identifier, so that after the second electronic device receives the upgrade request, the upgrade task of the first electronic device can be accurately determined through the task identifier.

[0049] In addition, in this application, different upgrade contents of the same upgrade task correspond to different timestamps, so as to determine whether the upgrade content of the upgrade task has changed by the timestamp. Therefore, the timestamp in this application can also be understood as the modification timestamp of the upgrade task.

[0050] In the present application, the upgrade request may be an Over-the-Air Technology (OTA) upgrade request, that is, the upgrade in the present application may be performed in an OTA manner.

[0051] Step S103: receiving a response message of the upgrade request returned by the second electronic device.

[0052] When the second electronic device receives the upgrade request, it determines the upgrade task of the first electronic device through the task identifier, and determines whether the upgrade content of the first electronic device for the upgrade task needs to be updated through the timestamp.

[0053] Step S104: When the response message includes indication information, and the indication information is used to indicate to use the first upgrade content for upgrading, use the first upgrade content for upgrading.

[0054] In the present application, when the second electronic device determines through the timestamp that it is not necessary to update the upgrade content of the upgrade task of the first electronic device, the response message sent by the second electronic device includes the instruction information to instruct the first electronic device to use the first upgrade content for the upgrade. The second electronic device determines through the timestamp that it is not necessary to update the upgrade content of the upgrade task of the first electronic device, which may be that the second electronic device determines that the timestamp of the upgrade task has not changed relative to the timestamp in the upgrade request, that is, the timestamp corresponding to the upgrade content of the upgrade task currently used by the second electronic device is the same as the timestamp in the upgrade request.

[0055] In the present application, the above steps can be used to achieve that during the upgrade process of the first electronic device, the second electronic device can only send instruction information instead of sending upgrade content, thereby saving resource consumption of the second electronic device, improving resource utilization of the second electronic device, and saving transmission resources between the first electronic device and the second electronic device.

[0056] As an optional implementation, the method further includes:

[0057] In the case that the response message includes the second upgrade content, the upgrade operation is performed using the second upgrade content, and the timestamp corresponding to the second upgrade content is different from the timestamp corresponding to the first upgrade content.

[0058] The second upgrade content is the upgrade content of the upgrade task currently used by the second electronic device, or is called the latest upgrade content of the upgrade task acquired by the second electronic device.

[0059] The response message including the second upgrade content may be that, when the second electronic device determines that the timestamp of the upgrade task has changed relative to the timestamp in the upgrade request, the second electronic device sends a response message including the second upgrade content to the first electronic device. That is, when the timestamp corresponding to the upgrade content of the upgrade task currently used by the second electronic device is the same as the timestamp in the upgrade request, the response message includes the second upgrade content. In this way, the latest upgrade content of the upgrade task can be sent to the first electronic device.

[0060] The timestamp corresponding to the second upgraded content is different from the timestamp corresponding to the first upgraded content, which means that the timestamp corresponding to the second upgraded content indicates a later time than the timestamp corresponding to the first upgraded content.

[0061] In this implementation, since the upgrade operation is performed using the second upgrade content, the upgrade can be performed according to the upgrade content indicated by the second electronic device, such as upgrading to the latest software version supported by the second electronic device, so as to improve the upgrade performance of the electronic device.

[0062] Furthermore, in this implementation, the second upgrade content may be sent only when the second electronic device determines that the timestamp of the upgrade task has changed relative to the timestamp in the upgrade request, so as to reduce the processing pressure of the second electronic device.

[0063] Taking OTA upgrade as an example, when the second electronic device receives the OTA upgrade request sent by the first electronic device, it checks whether the modification timestamp of the above-mentioned upgrade task cached by the first electronic device has changed. If there is no change, there is no need to update the OTA upgrade content and it returns directly. The OTA upgrade content is only sent when the modification timestamp of the upgrade task has changed, thereby reducing the processing pressure on the server.

[0064] As an optional implementation, the second upgrade content includes updated content of the first part of the first upgrade content, and the use of the second upgrade content to perform an upgrade operation includes: using the updated content and the second part of the first upgrade content to perform an upgrade operation.

[0065] The first part of the content may be one or more of the functions to be upgraded among the multiple functions to be upgraded corresponding to the first upgrade content. For example, the first upgrade content corresponds to three functions of a certain APP, and one of the three functions is upgraded again based on the first upgrade content, so the update content may be the upgrade content corresponding to the function, so that the first electronic device uses the update content to upgrade one function, and uses the second part of the first upgrade content to upgrade the other two functions.

[0066] In this implementation manner, since the update content and the second part of the first upgrade content are used to perform the upgrade operation, the overhead of the response message can be saved.

[0067] Furthermore, the second upgrade content may be obtained by the second electronic device through policy matching to match the first electronic device, wherein the policy matching may be at least one match of device ID, region, time, network type, etc.

[0068] Of course, the present application does not limit the manner of using the updated content and the second part of the first upgrade content to perform upgrade operations. For example, the second upgrade content may cover all the content of the first upgrade content, thereby directly using the second upgrade content to perform upgrade operations. Alternatively, the second upgrade content may also include new content relative to the first upgrade content, so that the new content and the first upgrade content may be used to perform upgrade operations.

[0069] As an optional implementation manner, sending the upgrade request to the second electronic device includes:

[0070] When the polling period is reached, the upgrade request is sent to the second electronic device.

[0071] The polling period may be a period or time at which the second electronic device periodically sends an upgrade inquiry to the first electronic device. Of course, the upgrade inquiry is not limited to being sent periodically, and may also be sent when the first electronic device is detected to be using the software to be upgraded.

[0072] In this implementation, it is possible to send the upgrade request to the second electronic device only when the polling cycle is reached, thereby avoiding the first electronic device from frequently sending upgrade requests, which results in a waste of resources. For example, after the second electronic device sends the first upgrade content of the upgrade task to the first electronic device, it is not upgraded due to the first electronic device. At this time, it is necessary to wait for the next polling cycle, and send the upgrade request to the second electronic device when the polling cycle is reached.

[0073] Of course, the present application does not limit the sending of the upgrade request to the second electronic device when the polling period is reached. For example, the upgrade request may also be sent according to the user's input operation.

[0074] Furthermore, in the present application, the upgrade operation of the first electronic device may be performed when an upgrade opportunity is met, wherein the upgrade opportunity is a time when the first electronic device allows or is convenient for upgrading, for example: it is convenient to upgrade when the user is not using the APP or playing games, then this time is the upgrade opportunity, anyway, it is not convenient to upgrade when the user is using the APP or playing games.

[0075] For example: Figure 2 As shown, in cycle one, the terminal sends a request for OTA upgrade, that is, requests OTA upgrade. After receiving the request, the front end performs OTA policy matching to obtain the upgrade content and sends it to the terminal. However, the terminal does not meet the upgrade timing in cycle one, so the OTA upgrade is not performed and the result is cached. In cycle two, the terminal sends a request for OTA upgrade. After receiving the request, the front end determines whether the timestamp has changed. If there is a change, OTA policy matching is performed and the updated content is sent down. If there is no change, policy matching is not performed to avoid increasing the load pressure on the server. Similarly, in cycle three, policy matching and updated content are only performed if the timestamp changes.

[0076] It should be noted that Figure 2 The first electronic device is taken as a terminal and the second electronic device is taken as a front end for illustration.

[0077] pass Figure 2 It can be realized that if the terminal caches the upgraded content, determining whether the cached timestamp has changed is a lightweight operation, which can greatly reduce the pressure on the second electronic device's policy matching logic.

[0078] In the embodiment of the present application, the first upgrade content of the upgrade task is cached; an upgrade request is sent to the second electronic device, the upgrade request carries the task identifier of the upgrade task and the timestamp corresponding to the first upgrade content; a response message of the upgrade request returned by the second electronic device is received; and when the response message includes indication information, the indication information is used to indicate that the first upgrade content is used for the upgrade, the first upgrade content is used for the upgrade operation. In this way, during the upgrade process of the first electronic device, the second electronic device can only send the indication information but not the upgrade content, thereby saving the resource consumption of the electronic device and saving the transmission resources between the first electronic device and the second electronic device.

[0079] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3is a flow chart of another upgrading method provided in an embodiment of the present application, the method is applied to a second electronic device, such as Figure 3 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0080] Step S301: receiving an upgrade request sent by a first electronic device, wherein the upgrade request carries a task identifier of an upgrade task and a timestamp corresponding to a first upgrade content, and the first upgrade content is the first upgrade content of the upgrade task cached by the first electronic device;

[0081] Step S301: Returning a response message of the upgrade request to the first electronic device;

[0082] Wherein, when the timestamp corresponding to the upgrade content of the upgrade task currently used by the second electronic device is the same as the timestamp in the upgrade request, the response message includes indication information, and the indication information is used to indicate the use of the first upgrade content for upgrading.

[0083] Optionally, when the timestamp corresponding to the upgrade content of the upgrade task used by the second electronic device is different from the timestamp in the upgrade request, the response message includes second upgrade content, and the second upgrade content is the upgrade content of the upgrade task currently used by the second electronic device.
