[0075] The specific embodiments of the present application have been shown in the above-described drawings, and will be described in more detail hereinafter. These drawings and the following description are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way, but are merely intended to illustrate the concept of the present application to one of ordinary skill in the art by reference to a particular embodiment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0076] The exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein with reference to the attached drawings. The same reference numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not meant to represent all implementations consistent with the present application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0077] In the related art, the basic logic of firmware upgrading is generally to upgrade one system in another system, and in the upgrading process, a corresponding upgrading program needs to be invoked by running an upgrading script, so as to realize firmware upgrading by running the upgrading program.

[0078] Exemplarily, taking a single-partition device as an example, the single-partition device includes a Normal system and a recovery system, the Normal system includes a boot partition, a kernel partition, a file system partition and the like, and as a whole, the Normal system can be understood as a normally running system. The recovery system has two functions: factory resetting and upgrading. At this time, the Normal system can be considered as a main running system, and the recovery system can be considered as a non-main running system. The file system partitions of the two systems both store an upgrade script and an upgrade program.

[0079] During firmware upgrading, if the upgrade script and / or the upgrade program need to be upgraded, the upgrade script and the upgrade program under the recovery system need to be upgraded through the Normal system, so that the recovery system can use the latest upgrade script and upgrade program to upgrade other partitions (other partitions under the Normal system or the recovery system); or the upgrade script and the upgrade program under the Normal system need to be upgraded through the recovery system, so that the Normal system can use the latest upgrade script and upgrade program to upgrade other partitions (other partitions under the recovery system or the Normal system), that is, there is a dependence of the upgrade tool, so that the firmware upgrading has strict upgrade sequence requirements.

[0080] In another example, taking a dual-partition device as an example, for example, AB partition (A / B Seamless Updates) is a dual-system partition device, which allows the device to remain available during background upgrading, and after the upgrading is completed, the new system is started by switching the partition, wherein the system of the A partition and the system of the B partition are both main running systems, only one system is in a running state and the other system is in an idle state. For example, the system of the A partition is in a running state, and the system of the B partition is in an idle state. Since the system of the A partition is in a running state, the system of the B partition can be upgraded in the A partition, so that the device remains available during background upgrading, and after the upgrading of the system of the B partition is completed, the upgraded system of the B partition can be started by switching the partition. It can be understood that the file system partitions of the two systems both store an upgrade script and an upgrade program.

[0081] When the firmware is upgraded, if the upgrade script and the upgrade program need to be upgraded, the electronic device needs to be restarted after the upgrade script and the upgrade program of the B partition are upgraded in the A partition, enter the system of the B partition, and use the upgraded upgrade script and upgrade program to upgrade the upgrade program and the upgrade script in the system of the A partition, so that the firmware in the system of the B partition is upgraded using the latest upgrade script and upgrade program in the A partition, or the firmware in the A partition is upgraded using the latest upgrade script and upgrade program in the system of the B partition, resulting in a large number of upgrade times.

[0082] Therefore, if the upgrade script and the upgrade program need to be upgraded when the firmware is upgraded, the upgrade process is too complex, the firmware upgrade efficiency is low, and the user experience is affected.

[0083] Therefore, the application provides a firmware upgrade method. The new version of the upgrade tool (including the new version of the upgrade script and the upgrade program) is packaged into an upgrade package, the new version of the upgrade tool in the upgrade package can be used for firmware upgrade when the firmware is upgraded, the firmware is upgraded after the upgrade tool is upgraded, the firmware upgrade process is simplified, the necessary upgrade times or strict upgrade sequence requirements in the firmware upgrade are reduced, the firmware upgrade efficiency is improved, and the user experience is improved.

[0084] In order to facilitate understanding, the following describes an electronic device of an embodiment of the application. Figure 1 The electronic device of the embodiment of the application is described.

[0085] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a structural schematic diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the application. The electronic device 10 includes a first system 101 and a second system 102.

[0086] If the electronic device 10 is a single-partition device, the first system 101 is a main running system, and the second system 102 is a non-main running system. If the electronic device 10 is a dual-partition device, the first system 101 and the second system 102 are both main running systems, the first system 101 is in a running state, and the second system 102 is in an idle state. The first upgrade tool is stored in the first system 101 and the second system 102.

[0087] Specifically, the first system 101 can include a file system, and the second system 102 also includes a file system. The first upgrade tool is stored in the file system of the first system 101 and the file system of the second system 102.

[0088] It can be understood that the upgrade script of the old version and the upgrade program of the old version herein refer to the upgrade script of the current version and the upgrade program of the current version stored in the file system of the first system 101 and the file system of the second system 102.

[0089] In a possible implementation, if the electronic device 10 is a single-partition device, the first system 101 can be a Normal system, and the second system 102 can be a recovery system. Since the electronic device 10 is a single-partition device, the first system 101 and the second system 102 are in the same storage area. The Normal system and the recovery system can refer to the description above, and will not be described herein again.

[0090] In a possible implementation, if the electronic device 10 is a dual-partition device, the first system 101 can be a system in an A partition, and the second system 102 can be a system in a B partition. The A partition and the B partition are two isolated storage areas in the electronic device 10. The A partition and the B partition can refer to the description above, and will not be described herein again.

[0091] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device can be a device providing voice / data connectivity to a user, for example, a handheld device with wireless connection function, a vehicle-mounted device, etc. Exemplarily, the electronic device can be a mobile phone, a pad, a computer (such as a notebook computer, a palm computer, etc.) with wireless transceiver function, a mobile internet device (MID), a virtual reality (VR) device, an augmented reality (AR) device, an extended reality (XR) device, a wireless terminal in industrial control, a wireless terminal in self driving, a wireless terminal in remote medical, a wireless terminal in smart grid, a wireless terminal in transportation safety, a wireless terminal in smart city, a wireless terminal in smart home, a cellular phone, a cordless phone, a session initiation protocol (SIP) phone, a wireless local loop (WLL) station, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a handheld device with wireless communication function, a computing device or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, a vehicle-mounted device, a wearable device, a terminal device in a 5G network, or a terminal device in a future evolved public land mobile network (PLMN), etc.

[0092] Among them, the wearable device can also be called a wearable smart device, which is a general term for devices that can be worn by applying wearable technology to the smart design and development of daily wear, such as glasses, gloves, watches, clothing, and shoes. The wearable device is a portable device that can be directly worn on the body or integrated into the user's clothes or accessories. The wearable device is not only a hardware device, but also a powerful function realized through software support and data interaction, cloud interaction. The general wearable smart device includes functions, large size, and can realize complete or partial functions without relying on a smart phone, such as smart watches or smart glasses, and focuses on a certain application function and needs to cooperate with other devices such as a smart phone, such as various smart wristbands and smart jewelry for monitoring vital signs.

[0093] In addition, the electronic device 10 can also be a terminal device in an Internet of Things (IoT) system.

[0094] The technical solutions of the present application and how the technical solutions solve the above technical problems will be described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can exist independently or in combination. For the same or similar concepts or processes, some embodiments may not be described again. The embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0095] Figure 2 A flowchart of a firmware upgrade method provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown. The method can be executed by an electronic device or a firmware upgrade device provided in the electronic device. The device can be a chip, a chip module, an integrated development environment (IDE), or the like. Referring to Figure 2 The method includes the following steps:

[0096] S201, obtaining an upgrade package, the upgrade package including a new version file of a firmware to be upgraded.

[0097] In a possible implementation, the electronic device can download the upgrade package based on Over-the-Air Technology (OTA). Specifically, the electronic device can pull the upgrade package from a cloud server through a specific protocol, for example, Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol or Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPs).

[0098] The cloud server can be a server corresponding to the electronic device, configured to provide support for firmware upgrade in the electronic device.

[0099] It can be understood that when generating the upgrade package, the cloud server can determine whether the upgrade tool used in the electronic device needs to be upgraded. If yes, the new version of the upgrade tool can be packaged into the upgrade package.

[0100] S202, determining a target upgrade tool according to the upgrade package, the target upgrade tool including a target upgrade script and / or a target upgrade program.

[0101] The electronic device can determine the target upgrade tool according to the obtained upgrade package, so that the firmware to be upgraded can be upgraded according to the target upgrade tool.

[0102] The target upgrade tool includes a target upgrade script and / or a target upgrade program. The target upgrade script refers to a set of instructions describing specific steps of firmware upgrade (for example, including erasing a partition, writing, performing a verification, etc.), and is used to define the order of the specific steps of the upgrade. The target upgrade program refers to a binary tool that performs the upgrade operation, and is responsible for parsing the target upgrade script and executing the instructions of the target upgrade script.

[0103] It should be noted that in some scenarios, the electronic device can also achieve firmware upgrade through the target upgrade script or the target upgrade program.

[0104] For example, the electronic device can determine the target upgrade tool according to whether the new version of the upgrade tool is included in the upgrade package.

[0105] S203, upgrade the to-be-upgraded firmware to the version corresponding to the new version file according to the target upgrade tool.

[0106] After determining the target upgrade tool, the electronic device can upgrade the to-be-upgraded firmware according to the target upgrade tool, that is, upgrade the old version of the to-be-upgraded firmware to the new version according to the new version file of the to-be-upgraded firmware included in the upgrade package.

[0107] For example, the electronic device can perform a write operation on the new version file of the to-be-upgraded firmware, for example, for a dual-partition device, the new version file of the to-be-upgraded firmware can be written to the B partition, so as to upgrade the old version of the to-be-upgraded firmware in the B partition to the new version.

[0108] In this embodiment, the electronic device can obtain an upgrade package, and the upgrade package includes a new version file of to-be-upgraded firmware. Then, according to the upgrade package, the target upgrade tool is determined, and the target upgrade tool includes a target upgrade script and / or a target upgrade program. The to-be-upgraded firmware is upgraded to the version corresponding to the new version file according to the target upgrade tool. The embodiment of the present application can simplify the firmware upgrade process and reduce the necessary upgrade times or strict upgrade order requirements in firmware upgrade, thereby improving the firmware upgrade efficiency and improving the user experience.

[0109] Next, based on the foregoing Figure 1 The electronic device is exemplified to explain in detail how the electronic device obtains the target upgrade tool according to the upgrade package.

[0110] Figure 3Another flowchart of the firmware upgrading method provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown in FIG. 3, which can be executed by the electronic device or a firmware upgrading apparatus provided in the electronic device. The apparatus can be a chip, a chip module, an IDE, or the like. The method comprises the following steps: Figure 3

[0111] S301: decompressing the upgrading package by the second system.

[0112] In a possible implementation, the first system can obtain the upgrading package, and then the electronic device can store the upgrading package, for example, in a user partition, an external storage, or a storage area accessible by the second system, so that the second system can obtain the upgrading package and perform decompression processing and the like on the upgrading package.

[0113] S302: determining whether the decompressed upgrading package comprises a second upgrading tool, the second upgrading tool comprising a new version of an upgrading script and / or a new version of an upgrading program.

[0114] If yes, S303 is performed; if no, S304 is performed.

[0115] The electronic device can decompress the upgrading package by the second system, and then determine whether the decompressed upgrading package comprises a second upgrading tool, the second upgrading tool comprising a new version of an upgrading script and / or a new version of an upgrading program. If yes, it indicates that the upgrading script and / or the upgrading program in the file system of the second system need to be upgraded, and need to be upgraded to the new version of the upgrading script and / or the new version of the upgrading program.

[0116] S303: extracting the second upgrading tool from the upgrading package by the first upgrading tool of the second system, and determining the target upgrading tool as the second upgrading tool.

[0117] If the decompressed upgrading package comprises the second upgrading tool, the electronic device can extract the second upgrading tool from the upgrading package by the first upgrading tool of the second system, that is, extract the second upgrading tool from the upgrading package by the old version of the upgrading tool of the second system, and determine the target upgrading tool according to the second upgrading tool.

[0118] It can be understood that if the upgrading package comprises the second upgrading tool:

[0119] If the target upgrading tool comprises a target upgrading script and a target upgrading program, the second upgrading tool in the upgrading package can comprise a new version of an upgrading script and / or a new version of an upgrading program; if the target upgrading tool comprises a target upgrading script, the second upgrading tool in the upgrading package can comprise a new version of an upgrading script; if the target upgrading tool comprises a target upgrading program, the second upgrading tool in the upgrading package can comprise a new version of an upgrading program.​

[0120] Based on this, the target upgrade tool determined above has the following cases:

[0121] Case 1: The target upgrade tool includes a target upgrade script and a target upgrade program

[0122] (1) If the second upgrade tool includes a new version of the upgrade script, that is, there is no new version of the upgrade program, it indicates that the upgrade program does not need to be updated, so the target upgrade script can be determined as the new version of the upgrade script, and the target upgrade program is the old version of the upgrade program.

[0123] (2) If the second upgrade tool includes a new version of the upgrade program, that is, there is no new version of the upgrade script, it indicates that the upgrade script does not need to be updated, so the target upgrade program can be determined as the new version of the upgrade script, and the target upgrade script is the old version of the upgrade script.

[0124] (3) If the second upgrade tool includes a new version of the upgrade script and a new version of the upgrade program, it indicates that both the upgrade script and the upgrade program need to be upgraded, so the new version of the upgrade script can be determined as the target upgrade script, and the new version of the upgrade program is determined as the target upgrade program.

[0125] Case 2: The target upgrade tool includes a target upgrade script, which can be determined as a new version of the upgrade script.

[0126] Case 3: The target upgrade tool includes a target upgrade program, which can be determined as a new version of the upgrade program.

[0127] S304, determine that the target upgrade tool is the first upgrade tool, and the first upgrade tool includes an old version of the upgrade script and / or an old version of the upgrade program.

[0128] If the second upgrade tool is not included in the decompressed upgrade package, it indicates that the upgrade script and the upgrade program in the file system of the second system do not need to be upgraded, and the electronic device can determine that the target upgrade tool is the first upgrade tool, that is, the old version of the upgrade script is determined as the target upgrade script and / or the old version of the upgrade program is determined as the target upgrade program, that is, the old version of the upgrade script and / or the old version of the upgrade program can be used for firmware upgrade.

[0129] In the embodiment, the electronic device can decompress the upgrade package through the second system, and determine whether the decompressed upgrade package includes the second upgrade tool. If yes, the second upgrade tool is extracted from the upgrade package through the first upgrade tool of the second system, and the target upgrade tool is determined according to the second upgrade tool. If no, the target upgrade tool is determined as the first upgrade tool. Thus, when the upgrade package includes the new version of the upgrade script and / or the new version of the upgrade program, the firmware upgrade is directly performed based on the new version of the upgrade script and / or the new version of the upgrade program.

[0130] In the following, the target upgrade tool includes the target upgrade script and the target upgrade program as an example, the firmware upgrade is performed based on Figure 1 The electronic device of the example is used to illustrate the firmware upgrade of the electronic device based on the target upgrade tool.

[0131] In a possible implementation, if the target upgrade tool is the first upgrade tool, and the first upgrade tool includes the old version of the upgrade script and the old version of the upgrade program, the electronic device can run the old version of the upgrade script through the second system, execute the old version of the upgrade program through the old version of the upgrade script, and upgrade the to-be-upgraded firmware of the first system, so that the to-be-upgraded firmware is upgraded to the version corresponding to the new version file.

[0132] Taking the electronic device as a single-partition device and the to-be-upgraded firmware as the firmware in the Normal system as an example, after the electronic device obtains the upgrade package through the Normal system, the electronic device enters the recovery system, can run the old version of the upgrade script through the recovery system, execute the old version of the upgrade program through the old version of the upgrade script, and upgrade the to-be-upgraded firmware of the Normal system.

[0133] Taking the electronic device as a dual-partition device and the to-be-upgraded firmware as the firmware of the system in the A partition as an example, the electronic device can enter the system of the B partition, run the old version of the upgrade script through the system of the B partition, execute the old version of the upgrade program through the old version of the upgrade script, and upgrade the to-be-upgraded firmware of the system in the A partition, that is, the firmware upgrade of the system in the B partition is realized in the system in the A partition. It can be understood that the firmware upgrade of the system in the A partition can also be realized in the system in the B partition.

[0134] In a possible implementation, taking the target upgrade tool including the target upgrade script and the target upgrade program as an example, if the target upgrade tool is not the first upgrade tool, that is, the target upgrade tool includes the target upgrade script and the target upgrade program, the above three cases (1), (2) and (3) in case 1 exist, the electronic device can run the old version of the upgrade script through the second system, execute the old version of the upgrade program through the old version of the upgrade script, and upgrade the to-be-upgraded firmware of the first system. Figure 4 The corresponding embodiments are used for firmware upgrade, and the old version of the upgrade script and / or the old version of the upgrade program is upgraded through Figure 5 the corresponding embodiments.

[0135] Figure 4 A flowchart of another firmware upgrading method provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown in FIG. 4. The method can be executed by an electronic device or a firmware upgrading device provided in the electronic device. The device can be a chip, a chip module, an IDE, or the like. The method includes the following steps. Figure 4

[0136] S401: Running a target upgrading script through a second system.

[0137] The electronic device can run the target upgrading script through the second system.

[0138] If the target upgrading script is a new version of the upgrading script, the firmware upgrading can be performed without the upgrading script upgrading, that is, the firmware upgrading can be performed through the new version of the upgrading script.

[0139] S402: Executing a target upgrading program through the target upgrading script to upgrade the firmware to be upgraded of the first system, so that the firmware to be upgraded is upgraded to a version corresponding to a new version file.

[0140] After running the target upgrading script, the target upgrading program can be executed through the instructions in the target upgrading script, so that the firmware to be upgraded of the first system is upgraded, and the firmware to be upgraded is upgraded to a version corresponding to a new version file.

[0141] It can be understood that if the target upgrading program is a new version of the upgrading program, the firmware upgrading can be performed without the upgrading script upgrading, that is, the firmware upgrading can be performed through the new version of the upgrading script.

[0142] In the embodiment, if it is determined that the target upgrading tool includes a new version of the upgrading script and / or a new version of the upgrading program, that is, the upgrading script and / or the upgrading program needs to be upgraded, the new version of the upgrading script and / or the new version of the upgrading program can be directly run through the second system, and the upgrading of the upgrading script and the upgrading program can be performed, that is, the firmware upgrading can be performed through the new version of the upgrading script and / or the new version of the upgrading program, and the firmware upgrading efficiency is improved.

[0143] In a possible implementation, when the target upgrading script is run through the second system and the target upgrading program is executed through the target upgrading script to upgrade the firmware to be upgraded of the first system, the target upgrading program can also be executed through the target upgrading script to upgrade the first upgrading tool of the first system, and the first upgrading tool of the first system is upgraded to a third upgrading tool.

[0144] Specifically, the third upgrading tool includes any one of the following: ​

[0145] the new version of the upgrade script and the old version of the upgrade procedure;

[0146] the new version of the upgrade procedure and the old version of the upgrade script;

[0147] the new version of the upgrade script and the new version of the upgrade procedure;

[0148] the new version of the upgrade script;

[0149] the new version of the upgrade procedure.

[0150] If the third upgrade tool includes the new version of the upgrade script and the old version of the upgrade procedure, it indicates that the second upgrade tool includes the new version of the upgrade script, that is, there is no new version of the upgrade script, and the upgrade procedure does not need to be updated, so the third upgrade tool can include the new version of the upgrade script and the old version of the upgrade procedure.

[0151] The third upgrade tool includes the new version of the upgrade script, which indicates that the electronic device only implements firmware upgrade through the upgrade script, and at this time, the third upgrade tool includes the new version of the upgrade script.

[0152] The third upgrade tool includes the new version of the upgrade procedure and the old version of the upgrade script, which indicates that the second upgrade tool includes the new version of the upgrade procedure, that is, there is no new version of the upgrade script, and the upgrade script does not need to be updated, so the third upgrade tool can include the new version of the upgrade procedure and the old version of the upgrade script.

[0153] The third upgrade tool includes the new version of the upgrade procedure, which indicates that the electronic device only implements firmware upgrade through the upgrade procedure, and at this time, the third upgrade tool includes the new version of the upgrade procedure.

[0154] The third upgrade tool includes the new version of the upgrade script and the new version of the upgrade procedure, which indicates that the second upgrade tool includes the new version of the upgrade script and the new version of the upgrade procedure, that is, the upgrade script and the upgrade procedure both need to be upgraded, so the third upgrade tool can include the new version of the upgrade script and the new version of the upgrade procedure.

[0155] The following takes the target upgrade tool including the target upgrade script and the target upgrade procedure as an example to illustrate the upgrade of the upgrade tool and the firmware. Figure 5

[0156] Figure 5 The following takes the target upgrade tool including the target upgrade script and the target upgrade procedure as an example to illustrate the upgrade of the upgrade tool and the firmware. Figure 5 The method includes the following steps:

[0157] ​S501, the electronic device acquires the upgrade package through the first system.

[0158] S502, the electronic device stores the upgrade package in a preset storage area.

[0159] For example, the preset storage area can be a user partition, an external storage, or other storage area accessible by the second system, so that the second system can acquire the upgrade package.

[0160] S503, the second system acquires the upgrade package in the preset storage area.

[0161] S504, the second system runs the target upgrade script.

[0162] S505, the target upgrade script executes the target upgrade program to upgrade the to-be-upgraded firmware of the first system, so that the to-be-upgraded firmware is upgraded to the version corresponding to the new version file.

[0163] S506, the target upgrade script executes the target upgrade program to upgrade the first upgrade tool of the first system, and upgrades the first upgrade tool of the first system to the third upgrade tool.

[0164] In this embodiment, when the electronic device upgrades the firmware of the first system through the second system, the upgrade tool of the first system can be upgraded at the same time, without the need to upgrade the upgrade tool first and then upgrade the firmware, which simplifies the firmware upgrade process, reduces the necessary upgrade times or strict upgrade sequence requirements in firmware upgrade, thereby improving the firmware upgrade efficiency and improving the user experience.

[0165] In a possible implementation, after the first upgrade tool of the first system and the to-be-upgraded firmware are upgraded, the electronic device is restarted to enter the first system, and the first upgrade tool of the second system is upgraded through the third upgrade tool of the first system. Specifically, after the first upgrade tool of the second system is upgraded, it is the same as the third upgrade tool, and the description of the third upgrade tool can be referred to, which will not be described here.

[0166] Next, taking the electronic device as a single-partition device and a dual-partition device as an example, and taking the second upgrade tool as an example including a new version of the upgrade script and a new version of the upgrade program, the Figure 5 The corresponding embodiments are exemplified as follows:

[0167] Taking an electronic device as a single-partition example, for example, the electronic device is a mobile phone, after the electronic device is powered off, the electronic device can take the example of upgrading the Normal system in the recovery system, the Normal system can acquire an upgrade package, and store the upgrade package in a user partition (a storage area independent of the recovery system and the Normal system, an area for storing user data and application programs), an external storage, or other storage areas accessible by the recovery system, a user can press a key (for example, a volume key + and a power key) or use other methods to make the electronic device enter the recovery system. The recovery system can acquire the upgrade package and perform operations such as verification and decompression on the upgrade package, if the upgrade package contains a new version of the upgrade tool, the recovery system can run the new upgrade tool in the memory, that is, run the new version of the upgrade script in the memory, so that the new version of the upgrade script is executed to perform the new version of the upgrade program, and the to-be-upgraded firmware of the Normal system is upgraded. At the same time, the recovery system can run the new upgrade tool in the memory to upgrade the old version of the upgrade tool of the Normal system, so that the upgrade tool in the recovery system is the new version of the upgrade tool.

[0168] After the electronic device is restarted after the to-be-upgraded firmware of the Normal system and the upgrade tool are upgraded, the electronic device can use the new version of the upgrade tool in the Normal system to upgrade the old version of the upgrade tool of the recovery system, so that the upgrade tool in the recovery system is also the latest version of the upgrade tool. Then the electronic device is restarted, and the electronic device enters the Normal system to run the upgraded firmware.

[0169] In a possible implementation, in a single-partition device, if the recovery system is upgraded in the Normal system, since the Normal system can acquire the upgrade package and perform operations such as verification and decompression on the upgrade package, if the upgrade package contains a new version of the upgrade tool (that is, the second upgrade tool), the Normal system can run the new upgrade tool in the memory, that is, run the new version of the upgrade script in the memory, so that the new version of the upgrade program is executed through the new version of the upgrade script, and the to-be-upgraded firmware of the recovery system is upgraded. At the same time, the Normal system can run the new upgrade tool in the memory to upgrade the old version of the upgrade tool of the recovery system. After the to-be-upgraded firmware and the upgrade tool of the recovery system are upgraded, the electronic device is restarted, and the user can press a key (for example, the volume + key and the power key) or use other methods to make the electronic device enter the recovery system. The recovery system can run the new version of the upgrade tool in the memory, that is, run the new version of the upgrade script in the memory, so that the new version of the upgrade program is executed through the new version of the upgrade script, and the old version of the upgrade tool of the Normal system is upgraded.

[0170] Taking the electronic device as a dual-partition example and taking the system in the B partition as an example, the electronic device acquires the upgrade package through the system in the A partition, and stores the upgrade package in a user partition (a storage area independent of the system in the A partition and the system in the B partition, an area used to store user data and application programs), an external storage, or another storage area accessible by the system in the B partition. The system in the B partition verifies and decompresses the upgrade package, and if the upgrade package contains a new version of the upgrade tool, the system in the B partition runs the new version of the upgrade tool in the upgrade package to upgrade the to-be-upgraded firmware of the system in the A partition. At the same time, the new version of the upgrade tool in the upgrade package can be run in the system in the B partition to upgrade the old version of the upgrade tool of the system in the A partition, and the to-be-upgraded firmware and the upgrade tool of the system in the A partition are upgraded after the electronic device is restarted.

[0171] The electronic device is restarted to enter the system in the A partition, for example, the to-be-upgraded firmware of the system in the A partition is firmware 1, whether the firmware 1 in the system in the B partition is upgraded can be determined according to user needs, that is, the firmware upgrade is synchronized with the system in the A partition, or the synchronization is not maintained. If synchronization is needed, a synchronization process (without performing an upgrade process) is performed, so that the system in the A partition and the system in the B partition both maintain the same firmware version. The new version of the upgrade tool can be run in the system in the A partition to upgrade the old version of the upgrade tool of the system in the B partition, so that the upgrade tool of the system in the B partition is the new version.

[0172] If the system in the A partition is upgraded, the electronic device acquires the upgrade package through the system in the A partition, the system in the A partition checks and decompresses the upgrade package, if the upgrade package contains the new version of the upgrade tool, the upgrade tool in the upgrade package is run in the system in the A partition to upgrade the to-be-upgraded firmware of the system in the B partition. At the same time, the upgrade tool in the upgrade package is run in the system in the A partition to upgrade the old version of the upgrade tool of the system in the B partition, so that the old version of the upgrade tool of the system in the B partition is upgraded to the new version of the upgrade tool in the upgrade package.

[0173] After the to-be-upgraded firmware and the old version of the upgrade tool of the system in the B partition are upgraded, the electronic device waits for the user to trigger the restart of the electronic device, the electronic device enters the system in the B partition after restarting, for example, the to-be-upgraded firmware of the system in the B partition is firmware 1, whether the firmware 1 in the system in the A partition is upgraded can be determined according to the user demand, that is, the firmware upgrade is synchronized with the system in the B partition, or not. If synchronization is needed, a synchronization process is performed, so that the system in the A partition and the system in the B partition both maintain the same firmware version. The new version of the upgrade tool can be run in the system in the B partition to upgrade the old version of the upgrade tool of the system in the A partition, so that the upgrade tool of the system in the A partition is the new version.

[0174] Based on the above example, when upgrading the firmware, if the upgrade tool is upgraded, when the firmware of one system 1 is upgraded to another system 2, the upgrade tool of the system 1 does not need to be upgraded, and the firmware of the system 2 can also be upgraded, avoiding the need to upgrade the upgrade tool first and then upgrade the firmware, simplifying the firmware upgrade process, reducing the necessary upgrade times or strict upgrade sequence requirements, thereby improving the firmware upgrade efficiency and improving the user experience.

[0175] Next, taking the second upgrade tool including the new version of the upgrade script and the new version of the upgrade program as an example, Figure 6 A flowchart of another firmware upgrade method provided by the embodiments of the present application is provided, which can be executed by the electronic device or the firmware upgrade device provided in the electronic device, which can be a chip, a chip module, an IDE, etc., and the like, please refer to Figure 6 The method comprises the following steps:

[0183] S607, calling the upgrade program of the old version in the file system to perform the firmware upgrade.

[0184] S608, the upgrade is completed.

[0185] It can be understood that the file system can be a file system in a system performing the firmware upgrade, for example, the firmware in the Normal system is upgraded in the recovery system, and the file system herein is the file system in the recovery system.
