boot_v1.1.bin always "jump to run user1" after OTA upgrade.
Posted: Fri Dec 19, 2014 8:09 am
I wrote a custom FW (not based on "AT commands firmware", but it uses code snippets from there) and it does OTA download and upgrade without errors.
Here is old topic: http://www.esp8266.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=860
FW OTA upgrade logic is simple:
1. FW checks what SPI Flash user bank (see memory map with OTA support: https://github.com/esp8266/esp8266-wiki/wiki/Memory-Map) currently used by FW with system_upgrade_userbin_check() which returns current bank UPGRADE_FW_BIN1 or UPGRADE_FW_BIN2
2. FW executes system_upgrade_start(struct upgrade_server_info *server) with a file to download opposite to current bank, i.e. if current bank is UPGRADE_FW_BIN1, then it downloads User2.bin, and vice versa.
3. On FW upgrade download and upgrade complete, it executes a callback where cheks if download was OK and then executes system_upgrade_reboot() to boot new FW.
Expected result:
If old FW was in UPGRADE_FW_BIN1 and downlads User2.bin - it should boot from UPGRADE_FW_BIN2 bank after restart.
Actual result:
FW always boots from UPGRADE_FW_BIN1 SPI Flash bank.
Questions:
1. Has anybody the source code of boot_v1.1.bin file from Espressif SDK ?
2. How boot_v1.1.bin decides which user bank (1 or 2) to boot at startup? any settings in SPI Flash?
