The accompanying drawing explanation
Fig. 1 is workflow schematic diagram of the present invention.
Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing 1, and embodiment is described further the present invention.
Embodiment 1: referring to Fig. 1.
A kind of method of system upgrade, it comprises the following steps:
1), system comprises main program module and functional module; The upgrade file of system upgrade is set on upgrade server, and upgrade file comprises functional module replacing file, and the numbering of upgrade file is set;
2), the systems inspection upgrade file, and download upgrade file from upgrade server, carry out the escalation process of self simultaneously.
This method is main program module and functional module by the system divides of Set Top Box, when system is upgraded, need to upgrade and get final product functional module for general; When system upgrade, upgrade server provides now each functional module of highest version, system is according to the numbering of each upgrade file, determine and need the upgrade file of changing, in the time of only need to be upgraded to the search module of the TV station of Set Top Box as the upgrading of certain primary system, the upgrade file that now Set Top Box only need to be downloaded search module gets final product, and search module is changed, upgrading that just can completion system.If during upgrading, system is not upgrading for a long time, and system will be downloaded all upgrade files that upgrade that need, then be changed.During due to system upgrade, only functional module is upgraded, so during system upgrade, do not affected the operation of main program module, i.e. the broadcasting of TV programme; Can when watching TV programme, carry out the upgrading of functional module.If changing certain functional module when watching TV programme, and now will be switched to this functional module the time, whether main program module can detect this functional module during upgrading, if during upgrading can point out, during upgrading, this handover operation is invalid simultaneously.
Further, described method also comprises: functional module is provided with the status file of its state of sign and the version file of upgraded version, and when functional module, when upgrading, this status file is identified as UP; When functional module completes when upgrading or do not upgraded, this status file is identified as work.
After functional module is identified in the system upgrade process, thereby main program module judges that by reading identification document whether handover operation is effective.After version file is set, the latest edition provided on version by the audit function module and current upgrade server is contrasted, if the version of functional module is lower than latest edition download and change upgrading, after downloading the replacing upgrading, the start context of version file is revised as to the latest edition label; Otherwise do not download replacing.If functional module is interrupted in escalation process, thereby cause, upgrade unsuccessfully, when upper Set Top Box once starts, system first can detect the status file of each functional module, when UP being detected, carries out this functional module is changed to upgrading.If file corruption, can not be upgraded, status file is revised as to work, simultaneously version file remains unchanged; In system, this functional module that detects again needs upgrading, and again upgrades, and downloads this updating functional modules file, revises status file.
Further, described method also comprises: be provided with ROMPaq, carry out the upgrading of guidance system by ROMPaq.
Set Top Box is when starting, and ROMPaq starts the version file of measuring ability module and the functional module version on upgrade server, thereby judges whether to need upgrading.
Further, described method also comprises: main program module also is provided with status file and version file.
Along with the progress of technology, system needs deeper raising, as the change from window 2000 to window xp systems, need to be changed from main program module.Now ROMPaq need to be detected status file and the version file of main program module, and the version information that on the contrast upgrade server, the system main program provides; After the version backwardness that main program module detected needs upgrading, ROMPaq starts guiding and downloads the main program module upgrade file, after having downloaded, main program module is upgraded, revise the status file of main program module simultaneously, by the work sign, be revised as the UP sign.If upgrade successfully, again the UP of status file sign is revised back to the work sign, the start context of version file is modified simultaneously.If in escalation process, have unexpectedly incident and cause upgrading unsuccessful (as outage), restart Set Top Box.While restarting Set Top Box, if main program module can not move, skip, directly move ROMPaq, ROMPaq detects status file and the version file of main program module, if status file is the UP sign, continues the guiding upgrading, if now file goes out active, cause upgrading unsuccessfully, end.Now status file is revised as work, and version file is constant; Status file and the version file of ROMPaq detection main program module again, and main program module is carried out to upgrading again, until upgrade successfully.
Further, described method also comprises: be provided with the upgrading bootstrap module of ROMPaq in main program module, ROMPaq is provided with version file and status file.
ROMPaq, when main program module and functional module are upgraded, records the interface relationship between main program module and each functional module in ROMPaq, and the quantity of functional module.When system is incomplete in early stage, functional module is less, and the functional module negligible amounts of therefore putting down in writing in the ROMPaq in early stage, when the guiding function module upgrade, only guide those functional modules of its record to be upgraded.Once functional module increases, ROMPaq can't be carried out guiding again, therefore need to guide ROMPaq.When set-top-box opening, during the main program module operation, thereby the upgrading bootstrap module starts to read the version file of ROMPaq obtains its version information, the version information of the ROMPaq provided on the version information of ROMPaq and upgrade server will be provided the upgrading bootstrap module, thereby judge whether upgrading, if need upgrading, from upgrade server, download the upgrade file of ROMPaq, the status file sign is revised as to UP by work simultaneously.If fortuitous event now occurs, as shutdown by force; After upper once start, the upgrading bootstrap module of main program module can detect version file and the status file of ROMPaq automatically, and when the Discovery Status file is UP, the bootstrap module of upgrading continues its upgrading of guiding, unsuccessful if upgrade, while finding that file is damaged.The sign of status file is modified, by UP, be revised as work; And keep version file constant.Now, its version file of upgrading bootstrap module detection again, if the version signal falls behind, the file carried out is again downloaded and upgrading.Until ROMPaq upgrades successfully.
Upgrade server provides the upgrade file of ROMPaq, and the upgrade file of functional module, main program module.
Be only below the application's preferred embodiment, equivalent technical solutions on this basis still falls into the application protection range.
