Struct BlockingFirmwareUpdater

pub struct BlockingFirmwareUpdater<'d, DFU, STATE>
where
    DFU: NorFlash,
    STATE: NorFlash,
{ /* private fields */ }

Blocking FirmwareUpdater is an application API for interacting with the BootLoader without the ability to ‘mess up’ the internal bootloader state

Implementations

impl<'d, DFU, STATE> BlockingFirmwareUpdater<'d, DFU, STATE>

where DFU: NorFlash, STATE: NorFlash,

pub fn new( config: FirmwareUpdaterConfig<DFU, STATE>, aligned: &'d mut [u8], ) -> BlockingFirmwareUpdater<'d, DFU, STATE>

Create a firmware updater instance with partition ranges for the update and state partitions.

Safety

The aligned buffer must have a size of STATE::WRITE_SIZE, and follow the alignment rules for the flash being read from and written to.

pub fn get_state(&mut self) -> Result<State, FirmwareUpdaterError>

Obtain the current state.

This is useful to check if the bootloader has just done a swap, in order to do verifications and self-tests of the new image before calling mark_booted.

pub fn hash<D>( &mut self, update_len: u32, chunk_buf: &mut [u8], output: &mut [u8], ) -> Result<(), FirmwareUpdaterError>

where D: Digest,

Verify the update in DFU with any digest.

pub fn mark_updated(&mut self) -> Result<(), FirmwareUpdaterError>

Mark to trigger firmware swap on next boot.

pub fn mark_dfu(&mut self) -> Result<(), FirmwareUpdaterError>

Mark to trigger USB DFU device on next boot.

pub fn mark_booted(&mut self) -> Result<(), FirmwareUpdaterError>

Mark firmware boot successful and stop rollback on reset.

pub fn write_firmware( &mut self, offset: usize, data: &[u8], ) -> Result<(), FirmwareUpdaterError>

Writes firmware data to the device.

This function writes the given data to the firmware area starting at the specified offset. It handles sector erasures and data writes while verifying the device is in a proper state for firmware updates. The function ensures that only unerased sectors are erased before writing and efficiently handles the writing process across sector boundaries and in various configurations (data size, sector size, etc.).

Arguments

• offset - The starting offset within the firmware area where data writing should begin.
• data - A slice of bytes representing the firmware data to be written. It must be a multiple of NorFlash WRITE_SIZE.

Returns

A Result<(), FirmwareUpdaterError> indicating the success or failure of the write operation.

Errors

This function will return an error if:

• The device is not in a proper state to receive firmware updates (e.g., not booted).
• There is a failure erasing a sector before writing.
• There is a failure writing data to the device.

pub fn prepare_update(&mut self) -> Result<&mut DFU, FirmwareUpdaterError>

Prepare for an incoming DFU update by erasing the entire DFU area and returning its Partition.

Using this instead of write_firmware allows for an optimized API in exchange for added complexity.
