Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to testing technology, and relate to but are not limited to a data updating method and device, and a storage medium. Background Art

[0002] At present, when burning the content to be updated to an electronic device, it is usually necessary to add the content to be updated to the electronic device. When updating the data in the user data partition of the electronic device, there is usually a situation where the content capacity of the content to be updated is smaller than the content capacity of the current electronic device. For example, when the electronic device updates the data at the storage addresses from 1500 to 1600 of the user data partition, if the current electronic device stores data at the storage addresses from 1500 to 1600, but the content to be updated only stores data at 1500 to 1510 and 1550 to 1600, that is, there is no update data at the storage addresses from 1511 to 1549, but when the electronic device is updated, because the content to be updated only refers to The updated contents at 1500 to 1510 and 1550 to 1600 are shown, so the electronic device will only update the contents at the storage addresses 1500 to 1510 and 1550 to 1600 according to the contents to be updated, but will not update the contents at the storage addresses 1511 to 1549, resulting in that after the update, the electronic device has updated data at the storage addresses 1500 to 1510 and 1550 to 1600, while the data at the storage addresses 1511 to 1549 are still the data before the update. The coexistence of the two types of data usually leads to data conflicts, which results in the electronic device being unable to be used normally after the update and the partition corresponding to the storage address being unable to be mounted normally, thereby reducing production efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of this, the data updating method, device and storage medium provided in the embodiments of the present application can ensure that the data before and after the update do not exist simultaneously in the electronic device, and ensure that the electronic device can be used normally after the update, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0010] In some embodiments, before generating the mirror configuration file to be updated, the method further includes: generating the mirror configuration file to be updated includes: generating the mirror configuration file to be updated after all the sub-configuration data have been filled in the preset configuration file.

[0026] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the specific technical solution of the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present application, but are not used to limit the scope of the present application.

[0027] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs.

[0028] In the following description, reference is made to “some embodiments”, which describe a subset of all possible embodiments, but it will be understood that “some embodiments” may be the same subset or different subsets of all possible embodiments and may be combined with each other without conflict.

[0029] It should be pointed out that the terms "first\second\third" involved in the embodiments of the present application are used to distinguish similar or different objects, and do not represent a specific ordering of the objects. It can be understood that "first\second\third" can be interchanged in a specific order or sequence where permitted, so that the embodiments of the present application described here can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described here.

[0030] The embodiment of the present application provides a data updating method, which is applied to an electronic device, which can be various types of devices with information processing capabilities during the implementation process. For example, the electronic device can include a personal computer, a laptop computer, a palmtop computer or a server, etc.; the electronic device can also be a mobile terminal, for example, the mobile terminal can include a mobile phone, a car computer, a tablet computer or a projector, etc. The function implemented by the method can be implemented by calling the program code by the processor in the electronic device, and of course the program code can be stored in a computer storage medium. It can be seen that the electronic device at least includes a processor and a storage medium.

[0031] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the electronic device 10 may include a processor 101 , an external memory interface 102 , an internal memory 103 , a universal serial bus (USB) interface 104 , a camera module 105 , a display screen 106 and buttons 107 .

[0032] It is to be understood that the structure illustrated in the embodiment of the present application does not constitute a specific limitation on the electronic device 10. In other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 10 may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine some components, or split some components, or arrange the components differently. The components shown in the figure may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of software and hardware.

[0033] The processor 101 may include one or more processing units, for example: the processor 101 may include an application processor (application processor, AP), a modem processor, a graphics processor (graphics processing unit, GPU), an image signal processor (image signal processor, ISP), a controller, a video codec, a digital signal processor (digital signal processor, DSP), a baseband processor, and / or a neural network processor (neural-network processing unit, NPU), etc. Among them, different processing units can be independent devices or integrated into one or more processors. Exemplarily, the processor 101 can be a smart terminal CPU, such as a Snapdragon series processor, etc. In some embodiments, the processor 101 may include one or more interfaces. The interface may include an inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface, an inter-integrated circuit sound (I2S) interface, a pulse code modulation (PCM) interface, a universal asynchronous receiver / transmitter (UART) interface, a mobile industry processor interface (MIPI), a general-purpose input / output (GPIO) interface, a subscriber identity module (SIM) interface, and / or a universal serial bus (USB) interface, etc.

[0034] It is understandable that the interface connection relationship between the modules illustrated in the embodiment of the present application is only a schematic illustration and does not constitute a structural limitation on the electronic device 10. In other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 10 may also adopt different interface connection methods in the above embodiments, or a combination of multiple interface connection methods.

[0035] The electronic device 10 implements the display function through a GPU, a display screen 106, and an application processor. The GPU is a microprocessor for image processing, which connects the display screen 106 and the application processor. The GPU is used to perform mathematical and geometric calculations for graphics rendering. The processor 101 may include one or more GPUs, which execute program instructions to generate or change display information. The display screen 106 is used to display images, videos, etc.

[0036] The electronic device 10 can realize the shooting function through ISP, shooting module 105, video codec, GPU, display screen 106 and application processor. ISP is used to process the data fed back by the shooting module 105. The shooting module 105 is used to capture static images or videos. The object generates an optical image through the lens and projects it onto the photosensitive element. The photosensitive element can be a charge coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistor. The photosensitive element converts the optical signal into an electrical signal, and then transmits the electrical signal to the ISP for conversion into a digital image signal. The ISP outputs the digital image signal to the DSP for processing. The DSP converts the digital image signal into an image signal in a standard RGB, YUV or other format. The digital signal processor is used to process digital signals. In addition to processing digital image signals, it can also process other digital signals. In some embodiments, the shooting module 105 can be a camera.

The external memory card communicates with the processor 101 through the external memory interface 102 to implement a data storage function, such as storing music, video and other files in the external memory card.

[0038] The internal memory 103 can be used to store computer executable program codes, which include instructions. The internal memory 103 can include a program storage area and a data storage area. The program storage area can store an operating system, an application required for at least one function (such as a sound playback function, an image playback function, etc.), etc. The data storage area can store data created during the use of the electronic device 10 (such as audio data, a phone book, etc.), etc.

[0039] The key 107 includes a power key, a volume key, etc. The key 107 can be a mechanical key or a touch key. The electronic device 10 can receive key input and generate key signal input related to user settings and function control of the electronic device 10.

[0040] In addition, the electronic device involved in the embodiments of the present application may also be installed with an operating system, and application programs may be installed and run on the operating system, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0041] Figure 2 A flow chart of a data updating method provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0042] Step S101, obtaining an image configuration file to be updated, the image configuration file to be updated includes configuration data to be updated of a target partition and control information for instructing to clear configuration data stored in the target partition, the control information is located in the image configuration file to be updated before the configuration data to be updated is located in the image configuration file to be updated, and the target partition is used to store user information;

[0043] Step S102, loading the mirror configuration file to be updated, and after clearing the original data stored in the target partition, storing the configuration data to be updated in the target partition.

[0044] It should be understood that the control information is located in the mirror configuration file to be updated before the configuration data to be updated is located in the mirror configuration file to be updated, so that the electronic device can first run the control information and then run the configuration data to be updated when running the mirror configuration file to be updated, so that the electronic device can clear the original data stored in the target partition and then store the configuration data to be updated in the target partition to ensure that the original data stored in the target partition can be cleared before the update, so that the electronic device only stores the updated data after the update is completed.

[0045] Optionally, the mirror configuration file to be updated can be obtained by the electronic device from other electronic devices by connecting to a burning tool, or can be obtained by automatically downloading from the network, or can be run by the electronic device itself after being manufactured. The specific design can be as needed and this application does not impose any restrictions.

[0046] Exemplarily, when an electronic device obtains data to be updated from other electronic devices via a connected burning tool, the electronic device receives the data to be updated sent by other electronic devices online through the burning tool. During the transmission process, when the data to be updated is large, the data to be updated can be divided into multiple data for transmission, thereby ensuring that the data to be updated can be quickly and completely transmitted during transmission. Among them, the above-mentioned burning tool may include burning hardware and burning software, and the burning software can convert the data to be updated into transmission data to realize the transmission of the burning hardware; the burning hardware realizes the connection between the electronic device and other electronic devices, and transmits the transmission data sent from other electronic devices to the electronic device, so that the electronic device can receive the transmission data and convert the transmission data into the data to be updated. In some embodiments, the burning tool can be a Universal Serial Bus (USB) burner.

[0047] Exemplarily, when the electronic device automatically downloads the data to be updated through the network, the electronic device can receive a wireless communication package sent by the server, wherein the wireless communication package can be an update request sent by the electronic device to the server storing the wireless communication package, and the server sends the update request to the electronic device, or the server storing the wireless communication package automatically pushes the package to the electronic device, which can be designed as needed and is not limited by this application. After receiving the wireless communication package, the electronic device can parse the wireless communication package to obtain the data to be updated therein, and then execute the subsequent data update method according to the data to be updated.

[0048] Exemplarily, when the electronic device is running on its own after creating the mirror configuration file to be updated, the electronic device may first use the mirror development tool to create the above-mentioned mirror configuration file to be updated, and then directly run the mirror configuration file to be updated so that the content of the mirror configuration file to be updated can be run on the electronic device itself to obtain the update effect corresponding to the mirror configuration file to be updated.

[0049] Optionally, the control information is based on being able to control the electronic device to clear the stored data in the target partition, and can be specifically designed as needed. For example, the control information can be command control information for instructing to clear the target partition, and this application does not impose any limitation thereto.

[0050] Optionally, the configuration data to be updated may include a partition table configuration file, which is used to indicate the size and start address of each block of the target partition and the corresponding configuration data to be updated. For example, for the following configuration record in the partition table configuration file:<filename="boot.img"label="userdata"size_in_KB="65536.0"start_byte_hex="0x18200000" / > , filename indicates the name of the configuration data to be updated, label indicates the name of the block, size_in_KB indicates the size of the partition, start_byte_hex indicates the starting address of the partition, so this record indicates that the package named boot.img is burned into the label block in the userdata partition. The size of the userdata partition is 65536kB and the starting address is 0x18200000; for another example, for the following record in the partition table configuration file:<filename=""label="userdata"size_in_KB="1024.0"start_byte_hex="0x1c200000" / > It means that the program package is not updated in the userdata partition. The size of the userdata partition is 1024kB and the starting address is 0x1c200000. Therefore, the control information can be written in the partition table configuration file, and the position of the control information in the partition table configuration file is before the configuration data to be updated. For example, the first line of the partition table configuration file is the control information, and the second line starts the configuration record of the configuration data to be updated, which is not limited here.

[0051] It should be noted that the update process of storing the configuration data to be updated in the target partition can be implemented with reference to the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.

[0052] In the above data updating method, when a mirror configuration file to be updated including configuration data to be updated and control information for indicating clearing configuration data stored in a target partition is obtained, the electronic device will first clear the configuration data stored in the target partition according to the control information during the process of loading the mirror configuration file to be updated, and then store the configuration data to be updated in the target partition, so that the data in the target partition only contains updated content. Compared with the situation in the prior art where both data before the update and data after the update exist at the same time, the present application can clear the current data of the target partition before updating, and then update the target partition, which can ensure that both data before the update and data after the update do not exist in the electronic device at the same time, and ensure that the electronic device can be used normally after the update, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0053] Figure 3A flowchart of another data updating method provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0054] Step S201, generating a mirror configuration file to be updated according to the configuration data to be updated and the control information;

[0055] Step S202, obtaining an image configuration file to be updated, the image configuration file to be updated includes configuration data to be updated of a target partition and control information for instructing to clear configuration data stored in the target partition, the control information is located before the configuration data to be updated in the image configuration file to be updated, and the target partition is used to store user information;

[0056] Step S203, loading the mirror configuration file to be updated, and after clearing the original data stored in the target partition, storing the configuration data to be updated in the target partition.

[0057] It should be noted that the execution method of the above steps S202 to S203 may be consistent with the execution method of the above steps S101 to S102, which will not be repeated here.

[0058] Optionally, the above-mentioned configuration data to be updated may include multiple sub-configuration data, or may only include a single configuration data. If the configuration data to be updated includes multiple sub-configuration data, the multiple sub-configuration data may be directly included when obtaining the configuration data to be updated, or the single configuration data may be divided into multiple sub-configuration data, and then the multiple sub-configuration data may be packaged as the configuration data to be updated.

[0059] Optionally, when dividing a single configuration data into multiple sub-configuration data, the single configuration data can be divided into multiple sub-configuration data of the same data size according to the preset data size. For example, if the preset data size is capacity A, then the data size of each sub-configuration data in the multiple sub-configuration data after division is capacity A; the single configuration data can also be divided into multiple sub-configuration data with a total number equal to the preset data number according to the preset data number. For example, if the preset data number is B, then the data number of the multiple sub-configuration data after division is B.

[0060] Optionally, the control information may be in the configuration data to be updated, or in the partition information corresponding to the configuration data to be updated. The specific design may be as required, and this application does not impose any limitation.

[0061] Optionally, if the control information is in the configuration data to be updated, the above step S201 may include:

[0062] inserting control information before sub-configuration data at a first sequential position of the plurality of sub-configuration data;

[0063] A mirror configuration file to be updated is generated according to the control information and the plurality of sub-configuration data.

[0064] It should be understood that the electronic device executes the update content in the configuration data to be updated line by line. For example, the first line of the configuration data to be updated is the update content of block A, and the second line is the update content of block B. When the electronic device executes the update according to the configuration data to be updated, it will first update the update content of block A, and then update the update content of block B. Therefore, inserting the control information before the sub-configuration data at the first sequential position can ensure that the clearing step of the target partition is executed before executing all the sub-configuration data.

[0065] It can be understood that by inserting control information before the sub-configuration data in the first sequential position of multiple sub-configuration data, the mirror configuration file to be updated generated thereby can ensure that the control information can be executed before the update is performed according to the multiple sub-configuration data, thereby ensuring the execution steps of clearing first and then updating.

[0066] Optionally, the mirror configuration file to be updated may be generated by sequentially filling control information and a plurality of sub-configuration data into a preset configuration file to generate the mirror configuration file to be updated.

[0067] Exemplarily, after obtaining the control information and the multiple sub-configuration data, the electronic device first fills the control information in the preset configuration file so that the position of the control information in the configuration file is before the multiple sub-configuration data, and then fills the multiple sub-configuration data in the preset configuration file to generate the mirror configuration file to be updated. Among them, the multiple sub-configuration data can be filled in the preset configuration file separately, or can be filled in the preset configuration file at the same time, which can be designed as needed and is not limited by this application.

[0068] It should be understood that the above-mentioned preset configuration file may be an additional configuration file, and the preset configuration file may include other data in addition to the control information and the plurality of sub-configuration data.

[0069] Optionally, the process of filling in the control information and the plurality of sub-configuration data in the preset configuration file in sequence may include the following steps 1 to 3:

[0070] Step 1, when acquiring multiple sub-configuration data in a preset order, determining whether the sub-configuration data currently acquired is the sub-configuration data at the first sequence position in the preset order;

[0071] Step 2, when the sub-configuration data currently obtained is the sub-configuration data at the first sequence position in the preset sequence, fill in the control information and the sub-configuration data at the first sequence position in the preset configuration file in sequence;

[0072] Step 3: When the sub-configuration data currently obtained is not the sub-configuration data at the first sequence position in the preset sequence, fill the preset configuration file with the sub-configuration data currently obtained to generate a mirror configuration file to be updated.

[0073] Optionally, the preset order may be an update order among multiple sub-configuration data when the electronic device executes the step of updating multiple sub-configuration data. The specific order may be designed as required and is not limited in this application.

[0074] Exemplarily, if multiple sub-configuration data include sub-configuration data A, sub-configuration data B and sub-configuration data C, and the preset order is that the first sequence position is sub-configuration data A, followed by sub-configuration data B and sub-configuration data C, then after the electronic device obtains any one of the multiple sub-configuration data, it will determine whether the currently obtained sub-configuration data is the sub-configuration data (sub-configuration data A) at the first sequence position in the preset order; if the currently obtained sub-configuration data is sub-configuration data A, then the control information and sub-configuration data A are filled in the preset configuration file in sequence; if the currently obtained sub-configuration data is sub-configuration data B or sub-configuration data C, then the currently obtained sub-configuration data is filled in the preset configuration file; and after sub-configuration data A, sub-configuration data B and sub-configuration data C are all obtained, a mirror configuration file to be updated is generated.

[0075] Optionally, when filling the control information and the plurality of sub-configuration data in the preset configuration file, it is also possible to judge whether all the sub-configuration data have been filled in the preset configuration file, and the judging process may include:

[0076] Determine whether all sub-configuration data are filled in the preset configuration file;

[0077] Accordingly, the generation process of the above-mentioned image configuration file to be updated may include:

[0078] After all sub-configuration data have been filled in the preset configuration file, the mirror configuration file to be updated is generated.

[0079] Optionally, the above-mentioned method of judging whether all sub-configuration data are filled in the preset configuration file may be to compare the content of the preset configuration file with the content of all sub-configuration data; if they are completely consistent, all sub-configuration data have been filled in the preset configuration file; otherwise, not all sub-configuration data have been filled in the preset configuration file; it may also be to judge whether the identifier of the sub-configuration data currently filled in is consistent with the preset identifier, and the identifier is used to indicate the filling progress of the sub-configuration data. For example, there are N sub-configuration data in total, and the multiple sub-configuration data are marked with identifiers from 1 to N in sequence. Then, the identifier of one of the sub-configuration data is N, which means that the sub-configuration data is the last one of the multiple sub-configuration data. The electronic device obtains the multiple sub-configuration data in the order of identifiers from 1 to N. When the sub-configuration data identified as N is obtained, it can be determined that all sub-configuration data are filled in the preset configuration file, thereby generating a mirror configuration file to be updated.

[0080] It can be understood that, when the sub-configuration data currently obtained is the sub-configuration data at the first sequence position in the preset sequence, the control information and the sub-configuration data at the first sequence position are sequentially filled in the preset configuration file; when the sub-configuration data currently obtained is not the sub-configuration data at the first sequence position in the preset sequence, the preset configuration file is filled with the sub-configuration data currently obtained to generate a mirror configuration file to be updated, thereby achieving that the generated mirror configuration file to be updated can ensure that the control information can be executed before the update is performed according to multiple sub-configuration data, thereby ensuring the execution steps of clearing first and then updating.

[0081] Optionally, if the control information is in the partition information corresponding to the configuration data, the above step S201 may include:

[0082] Generate target partition information according to the sub-partition information corresponding to each sub-configuration data;

[0083] After inserting the control information before the first line of the target partition information, the inserted target partition information is obtained;

[0084] The inserted target partition information and a plurality of sub-configuration data are sequentially filled into the preset configuration file to generate the mirror configuration file to be updated.

[0085] It should be understood that the configuration data to be updated includes partition information and configuration data, the configuration data is the specific update content, and the partition information is used to indicate the size and starting address of each sub-partition and the corresponding configuration data. In some embodiments, the partition information can be a partition table configuration file.

[0086] Optionally, the sub-partition information corresponding to each sub-configuration data can be determined by receiving a selection instruction input by the user when making the configuration data to be updated to include multiple corresponding sub-partitions. For example, a partition selection control is provided to the user so that the user can select the partition corresponding to the configuration data to be updated through the partition selection control; or, multiple sub-partitions are determined based on the configuration data to be updated and a partition table configuration file; or, all sub-partitions of the configuration data to be updated are determined as multiple sub-partitions, which is not limited here.

[0087] It should be understood that the above target partition information includes all sub-partition information, and control information is inserted before all sub-partition information to obtain the inserted target partition information, so that when the electronic device updates the configuration data according to the partition information, it can first execute the step of clearing the control information.

[0088] Exemplarily, if multiple sub-configuration data include sub-configuration data A, sub-configuration data B and sub-configuration data C, sub-configuration data A needs to be updated to sub-partition A of the target partition, corresponding to the partition information of sub-partition A of the target partition of the electronic device, sub-configuration data B needs to be updated to sub-partition B of the target partition, corresponding to the partition information of sub-partition B of the target partition of the electronic device, and sub-configuration data C needs to be updated to sub-partition C of the target partition, corresponding to the partition information of sub-partition C of the target partition of the electronic device, then the electronic device can generate target partition information, and the target partition information includes partition information of sub-partition A of the target partition, partition information of sub-partition B of the target partition and partition information of sub-partition C of the target partition.

[0089] Therefore, when the electronic device updates the configuration data according to the partition information, it can first execute the control information to clear the original configuration data of the target partition, and then update the configuration data.

[0090] Optionally, if the control information is in the partition information corresponding to the configuration data, the above step S203 may include:

[0091] According to the sub-partition information corresponding to each sub-configuration data, the plurality of sub-configuration data are stored in the corresponding sub-partition in the target partition.

[0092] Exemplarily, if multiple sub-configuration data include sub-configuration data A, sub-configuration data B and sub-configuration data C, sub-configuration data A needs to be updated to sub-partition A of the target partition, corresponding to the partition information of sub-partition A of the target partition of the electronic device, sub-configuration data B needs to be updated to sub-partition B of the target partition, corresponding to the partition information of sub-partition B of the target partition of the electronic device, sub-configuration data C needs to be updated to sub-partition C of the target partition, corresponding to the partition information of sub-partition C of the target partition of the electronic device, then when the electronic device updates multiple sub-configuration data, it will update sub-configuration data A to sub-partition A of the target partition, sub-configuration data B to sub-partition B of the target partition, and sub-configuration data C to sub-partition C of the target partition to complete the update.

[0093] In the above data update method, a mirror configuration file to be updated is first generated in the electronic device, and then the electronic device can perform self-update according to the mirror configuration file to be updated, thereby realizing an automated flow of the electronic device from updating content to updating process, avoiding the step of burning the mirror configuration file to be updated to the electronic device when performing an update on the electronic device in the prior art, thereby reducing the updating steps.

[0094] The following describes an exemplary application of the embodiments of the present application in a practical application scenario.

[0095] Figure 4 The following is a schematic diagram of the implementation process of the data updating method provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 As shown, the method includes the following steps S301 to S307:

[0096] Step S301, after obtaining the compiled mirror configuration file to be updated, the electronic device splits the configuration data to be updated into a plurality of sub-configuration data;

[0097] Step S302, determining a target sub-configuration data that is in a first order position according to a preset order among a plurality of sub-configuration data;

[0098] Step S303, fill in the control information of erasing the userdata partition in the first line of the preset configuration file, and fill in the partition data information corresponding to the target sub-configuration data starting from the second line;

[0099] Step S304, filling in other sub-configuration data in the preset configuration file in sequence, and after all other sub-configuration data are filled in, using the preset configuration file as the mirror configuration file to be updated;

[0100] Step S305, the electronic device loads the image configuration file to be updated through a burning tool;

[0101] Step S306, first clear the configuration data stored in the target partition according to the mirror configuration file to be updated;

[0102] Step S307: According to the mirror configuration file to be updated, after the clearing is completed, the configuration data to be updated is stored in the target partition.

[0103] Since this embodiment generates target partition information corresponding to the multiple sub-configuration data after splitting the configuration data to be updated and obtaining the multiple sub-configuration data, and fills the control information of erasing the userdata partition in the first line of the target partition information so that the erasing action is earlier than the updating action, it can be ensured that the data before the update and the data after the update do not exist in the userdata partition at the same time, thereby avoiding data conflicts.

[0104] The following describes an exemplary application of the embodiment of the present application in another practical application scenario.

[0105] Figure 5 The following is a schematic diagram of the implementation process of the data updating method provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 As shown, the method includes the following steps S401 to S407:

[0106] Step S401, after obtaining the compiled mirror configuration file to be updated, the first electronic device splits the configuration data to be updated into a plurality of sub-configuration data;

[0107] Step S402, the first electronic device determines a target sub-configuration data that is in a first order position according to a preset order among a plurality of sub-configuration data;

[0108] Step S403, the first electronic device fills in the control information of erasing the userdata partition in the first line of the preset configuration file, and fills in the partition data information corresponding to the target sub-configuration data starting from the second line;

[0109] Step S404, the first electronic device sequentially fills in other sub-configuration data in the preset configuration file, and after all other sub-configuration data are filled in, uses the preset configuration file as the mirror configuration file to be updated, and sends the mirror configuration file to be updated to the second electronic device through a burning tool when communicating with the second electronic device;

[0110] Step S405, the second electronic device loads the mirror configuration file to be updated after obtaining the mirror configuration file to be updated through a burning tool;

[0111] Step S406, the second electronic device first clears the configuration data stored in the target partition according to the mirror configuration file to be updated;

[0112] Step S407: the second electronic device stores the configuration data to be updated in the target partition according to the mirror configuration file to be updated after clearing is completed.
