Re: [U-Boot] Question about Automatic Updates

Dear TigerLiu@viatech.com.cn,

I found an Automatic Updates digest in this web page: http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/U-Bootdoc/AutomaticUpdates

So, my question is:

1. Can uboot support this feature now?

This has been implemented (actually in a number of veriants) for several boards in U-Boot.

I could not find key word "firmware.img" etc in u-boot source code package.

Most of this is usually done as shell scripts run by U-Boot. These scripts are usually proprietary code ant not part of the U-Boot distribution.

Mainline U-Boot contains all the needed features, and implementing such an update mechanism is relatively straightforward.
