Could you also write in the proper README the steps necessary to have the same functionality as with UPDATE_TFTP with dfu and preboot? I think that it would be good to have it written down in ./doc.
doc/README.dfutftp already describes the necessary steps as:
- enable CONFIG_DFU_TFTP * enable CONFIG_PREBOOT * put a string
like "dfu tftp 0 mmc 0" into the "preboot" env variable
Do you want me to explicitly write that "dfu tftp 0 mtd 0" replaces the former auto-update functionality?
I am curious if that command is really dfu tftp 0 mtd 0.
Lukasz was asking about the replacement of the update that was executed when running with CONFIG_UPDATE_TFTP=y. This function that I am removing could only write to NOR flash. The update defined via CONFIG_PREBOOT is much more flexible and can server other storage media.
One of my concerns regarding CONFIG_PREBOOT is that it depends on the "preboot" variable. What this means is that, if a user unsets this variable (accidentally or not), 'automatic firmware update' won't be executed. This can be a critical issue if the system administrator intends to *enforce* the update. (I know there are more issues regarding enforcement though.)
That is why I added UEFI capsule update hook in main_loop() as a compile-time option.

The different accessible devices are described in doc/README.dfu. "ram" is one of them.
Best regards
Heinrich
I have just tested it on zynqmp with copying images to ram and command is just dfu tftp ram 0. It means I think it would be worth to list options which are really used by different back ends because it is not fully clear from help how to exactly define it.
dfu tftp [<interface> <dev>] [<addr>] - device firmware upgrade via TFTP on device <dev>, attached to interface <interface> [<addr>] - address where FIT image has been stored
Thanks, Michal
