As a result, the functionality of vehicle ECUs (Electronic Control Units) is becoming increasingly powerful. ECU firmware upgrades and iterations have become a core requirement in the automotive industry.

[0003] Traditionally, ECU firmware upgrades can only be performed offline, requiring significant manpower and time. This significantly increases the cost of ECU firmware upgrades and cannot guarantee timely updates. Especially with a large number of ECUs, if firmware upgrades for each ECU rely on manual labor, this significantly reduces the efficiency of ECU firmware upgrades. To address this issue, ECUs can be connected to repeaters and configured to flash them. However, this method increases the transmission link, which not only reduces transmission efficiency during the ECU flashing process but also makes it impossible to ensure the security of the ECU flashing process.

[0033] Hereinafter, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the described embodiments may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of the present application. Therefore, the drawings and description are to be regarded as illustrative in nature and not restrictive.

[0034] To facilitate understanding of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the following describes the related technologies of the embodiments of the present application. The following related technologies can be combined with the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application as optional solutions, and all of them fall within the scope of protection of the embodiments of the present application.

[0035] The following describes in detail the technical solution of this application and how it solves the aforementioned technical problems using specific embodiments. The several specific embodiments listed can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described in detail in some embodiments. The following describes the embodiments of this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] Figure 1 This is a schematic flow chart of an ECU flashing method according to some embodiments of the present application. In this embodiment, the ECU flashing method can be applied to a host computer. Figure 1 As shown, the method may include the following steps S102 to S106:

[0037] Step S102 : Generate a firmware package to be flashed, and send the firmware package to the terminal. The firmware package includes a data file and a flashing process file corresponding to the data file.

[0038] The flashing process file includes the flashing process of the firmware package, and the flashing process refers to the process of writing data files into the ECU.

[0039] Step S104: receiving the integrity check result of the firmware package fed back by the terminal.

[0040] After receiving the firmware package, the terminal first verifies the package's integrity, obtains a verification result, and then transmits this result back to the host computer. The integrity check ensures the integrity of the firmware package and prevents data loss or tampering. The integrity check result can be either passed or failed.

[0041] Step S106: If the integrity check result is passed, a flashing instruction is sent to the terminal, where the flashing instruction is used to instruct the terminal to flash the ECU based on the firmware package.

[0042] After receiving the flashing instruction, the terminal writes the data file into the ECU according to the flashing process based on the flashing process file in the firmware package.

[0043] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present application is adopted. By generating a firmware package to be flashed and sending the firmware package to the terminal, the firmware package includes a data file and a flashing process file corresponding to the data file; the integrity check result of the firmware package fed back by the receiving terminal is sent to the terminal when the integrity check result is passed. The flashing instruction is used to instruct the terminal to flash the ECU based on the firmware package. The integrity check and the flashing process of the firmware package are performed separately, that is, the integrity check is performed before flashing, and the flashing is performed only after the integrity check is passed, thereby ensuring the integrity of the firmware package and improving the success rate of ECU flashing. In addition, the ECU flashing is realized by direct interaction between the host computer and the terminal, without the introduction of intermediate equipment, reducing the transmission link, not only improving the efficiency of ECU flashing, but also avoiding the problem of reduced data security when there are too many links.

[0044] In some embodiments, before sending a flashing instruction to a terminal, an ECU mode switching instruction may be sent to the terminal. The ECU mode switching instruction is used to instruct the terminal to switch the ECU mode to a specific mode, where the specific mode is used to flash the ECU. After sending the ECU mode switching instruction, a mode switching result is fed back by the terminal. The mode switching result is used to indicate that the terminal has completed the ECU mode switch.

[0045] After receiving the ECU mode switching instruction, the terminal switches the current mode of the ECU to a specific mode, which may be an editing mode or a flashing mode.

[0046] Because in the default mode of the ECU (such as normal operating mode), the ECU may prohibit the modification of internal programs and needs to process sensor data and control actuators in real time, which will occupy more CPU, memory and other resources. In the edit mode or flash mode, the ECU will stop non-essential control logic and release resources for flashing operations. Therefore, by switching the current mode of the ECU to a specific mode and flashing the ECU in the specific mode, it can ensure that the ECU flashing proceeds smoothly and ensures the stability and efficiency of the ECU flashing.

[0047] In some embodiments, after receiving the mode switching result fed back by the terminal, a security detection instruction is sent to the terminal, and the security detection instruction is used to instruct the terminal to perform a security detection of the ECU flashing. Optionally, the firmware package also includes signature information for security authentication. The signature information can be a security verification code (such as Seed & Key), a key, a digital certificate, etc. generated randomly or according to a pre-configured signature generation algorithm. The security detection of the ECU flashing may include detecting whether the signature information is correct and complete. After the terminal performs the security detection, the security detection result is sent to the host computer. After the host computer receives the security detection result as passed, it sends a flashing instruction to the terminal to start the flashing.

[0048] By performing security checks before ECU flashing, it can be ensured that the current ECU flashing is performed by the authorized party, preventing external devices from maliciously flashing the ECU, thereby ensuring the security of ECU flashing.

[0049] In some embodiments, after sending a flashing instruction to a terminal, a response message from the ECU during the flashing process is obtained; and based on the response message, the flashing status information of the ECU is determined. The flashing status information includes at least one of the following: the flashing progress and the content of the data currently being flashed.

[0050] During the ECU flashing process, the terminal sends a response message to the terminal, which transparently transmits the ECU's response message to the host computer. The response message is the ECU's response message during the flashing process and may include identification information about the data currently being flashed by the ECU. After receiving the response message from the ECU, the host computer can determine the ECU's flashing progress and the digital content currently being flashed, thereby enabling the host computer to monitor the ECU's flashing status and promptly obtain information about the flashing progress and any abnormalities that may occur during the flashing process.

[0051] In some embodiments, after sending a flash instruction to a terminal, the terminal receives feedback on an ECU flash result, which includes at least one of the following: whether the flash is complete, the flash progress, and the flash process that has been executed. After receiving the ECU flash result, the ECU flash result is verified according to a locally stored flash process file.

[0052] Optionally, the upper computer has a local backup of the flash process file. After receiving the ECU flash result, the executed flash process in the ECU flash result is compared with the locally backed-up flash process file to determine whether the ECU flash result is correct, for example, whether the ECU flash process has been fully executed, whether the flash progress is 100%, and so on.

[0053] In some embodiments, the host computer may display the ECU flashing results, flashing status information, etc. received during the ECU flashing process to the user, so that the user can obtain relevant information about the ECU flashing in a timely manner.

[0054] Figure 2 This is a schematic flow chart of an ECU flashing method according to some embodiments of the present application. In this embodiment, the ECU flashing method can be applied to a terminal. Figure 2 As shown, the method may include the following steps S202 to S206:

[0055] Step S202: Obtain the firmware package to be flashed sent by the host computer. The firmware package includes a data file and a flashing process file corresponding to the data file.

[0056] The flashing process file includes the flashing process of the firmware package, and the flashing process refers to the process of writing data files into the ECU.

[0057] Step S204: perform integrity check on the firmware package and feed back the integrity check result to the host computer.

[0058] After receiving the firmware package, the terminal first verifies the package's integrity, obtains a verification result, and then transmits this result back to the host computer. The integrity check ensures the integrity of the firmware package and prevents data loss or tampering. The integrity check result can be either passed or failed.

[0059] Step S206 , in response to receiving the flashing instruction sent by the host computer, flashing the ECU based on the firmware package, the flashing instruction is generated by the host computer when the integrity check result is passed.

[0060] After receiving the flashing instruction, the terminal writes the data file into the ECU according to the flashing process based on the flashing process file in the firmware package.

[0061] Adopting the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, by obtaining the firmware package to be flashed sent by the host computer, the firmware package includes a data file and a flashing process file corresponding to the data file, performing an integrity check on the firmware package, and feeding back the integrity check result to the host computer. After receiving the flashing instruction sent by the host computer, the ECU is flashed based on the firmware package. The flashing instruction is generated by the host computer when the integrity check result is a pass. It can be seen that the integrity check and the flashing process of the firmware package are executed separately, that is, the integrity check is performed before flashing, and the flashing is performed only when the integrity check is passed, thereby ensuring the integrity of the firmware package and improving the success rate of ECU flashing. In addition, the ECU flashing is realized by direct interaction between the host computer and the terminal, without the introduction of intermediate equipment, reducing the transmission link, not only improving the ECU flashing efficiency, but also avoiding the problem of reduced data security when there are too many links.

[0062] In some embodiments, during the flashing process of the ECU, the terminal obtains a response message from the ECU and transparently transmits the response message to a host computer, so that the host computer can determine the flashing status information of the ECU based on the response message of the ECU. The flashing status information includes at least one of the following: the flashing progress and the content of the data currently being flashed.

[0063] During the flashing process of the ECU, the ECU sends a response message to the terminal. The response message is the response message of the ECU during the flashing process, and the response message may include identification information of the data content currently flashed by the ECU.

[0064] By transparently transmitting the response message to the host computer, the host computer can determine the ECU's flashing progress and the digital content currently being flashed after receiving the ECU's response message, thereby enabling the host computer to monitor the ECU's flashing status and promptly learn about the flashing progress and any abnormal situations that may occur during the flashing process.

[0065] In some embodiments, after the ECU flash is completed, the terminal feeds back the ECU flash result to the host computer. The ECU flash result includes at least one of the following: whether the flash is completed, the flash progress, and the executed flash process.

[0066] Figure 3 This is a schematic swim lane diagram of an ECU flashing method according to some embodiments of the present application. In this embodiment, the host computer and the vehicle terminal (hereinafter referred to as the terminal) are connected wirelessly, and the terminal and the ECU are connected via a wiring harness. Figure 3 As shown, the ECU flashing method includes the following steps S3.1 to S3.12:

[0067] In step S3.1, the host computer generates a firmware package to be flashed and sends the firmware package to the terminal.

[0068] In step S3.2, the terminal downloads the firmware package and performs an integrity check on the firmware package.

[0069] In step S3.3, the terminal sends the integrity check result to the host computer.

[0070] Optionally, after the terminal performs an integrity check on the firmware package, if the integrity check result is a failure, the terminal may re-download the firmware package and perform an integrity check on the re-downloaded firmware package. If the number of repeated downloads of the firmware package reaches a preset number, the firmware package download is stopped and the integrity check failure result is reported to the host computer. The host computer may then re-send the firmware package to the terminal.

[0071] Step S3.4: If the integrity check result is passed, the host computer sends an ECU mode switching instruction and a safety detection instruction to the terminal.

[0072] Among them, the ECU mode switching instruction is used to instruct the terminal to switch the ECU mode to the programming mode, and the safety detection instruction is used to instruct the terminal to perform a safety detection of the ECU flashing.

[0073] In step S3.5, the terminal switches the ECU programming mode to programming mode and performs a safety test for ECU flashing.

[0074] The firmware package also includes signature information for security authentication. This signature information can be a security verification code (such as Seed & Key), a key, a digital certificate, etc., generated randomly or according to a pre-configured signature generation algorithm. ECU flash security testing can include checking whether the signature information is correct and complete.

[0075] In step S3.6, the terminal feeds back the mode switching result and the safety detection result to the host computer.

[0076] Step S3.7: If the mode switch is successful and the security detection result is passed, the host computer sends a flashing instruction to the terminal.

[0077] Step S3.8: After receiving the flashing instruction, the terminal flashes the ECU according to the firmware package.

[0078] Step S3.9: During the ECU flashing process, the ECU sends a response message to the terminal.

[0079] The response message is the response message of the ECU during the flashing process, and the response message may include identification information of the data content currently being flashed by the ECU.

[0080] In step S3.10, the terminal sends the response message of the ECU to the host computer.

[0081] In step S3.11, the host computer determines the flashing status information of the ECU based on the response message from the ECU.

[0082] The flashing status information includes at least one of the following: flashing progress and the content of the data currently being flashed.

[0083] Step S3.12: After the ECU flashing is completed, the terminal feeds back the ECU flashing result to the host computer.

[0084] It can be seen that the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application is adopted. Before the ECU is flashed, the integrity check of the firmware package is first performed, and only when the integrity check result is verified to be passed, the host computer will send a flashing instruction to the terminal to start the flashing of the ECU, so that the integrity check of the firmware package and the flashing process are performed separately, ensuring the integrity of the firmware package and improving the success rate of the ECU flashing. In addition, the ECU flashing is achieved by direct interaction between the host computer and the terminal, without the need to introduce intermediate equipment, reducing the transmission link, not only improving the ECU flashing efficiency, but also avoiding the problem of reduced data security caused by too many links. In addition, during the ECU flashing process, the host computer and the terminal directly exchange ECU response messages, so that the host computer can understand the ECU flashing progress, the current flashing data content and other information in real time, thereby realizing the host computer's monitoring of the ECU flashing status and timely knowing the flashing progress and abnormal situations that may occur during the flashing process.
