ESP8266 RTOS : Device Firmware Update Over the Air (DFU-OTA) via the Private Server

      ESP8266 is a very popular micro-controller featuring WIFI with its bargaining price. There are some product based on ESP8266/ESP8285 (ESP8285 = ESP8266 embedded 1 MB flash) for home IoT using. The makers enjoy remolding the firmware of the products to fix their personal purposes.
      In most case, the maker re-program ESP8266 in the framework of Arduino, thus, there are lots post and discussion about how to deal with DFU-OTA based on ESP8266 Arduino. However, The information about the same goal but the ESP8266 based on RTOS framework is limited, undocument or incomplete. This post wants to fill the gap.
   By default, DFU-OTA server is based on Espressif: It forces the ESP8266 to be on internet. But some use case the ESP8266 would not be connected with internet (maybe for the security issue). Therefore, private DFU-OTA is very necessary. In here I assume your DFU-OTA server is linux based, But it is easy to port the DFU-OTA function to the other platform, for the DFU-OTA working principle is typical TCP-IP.

Note: this example assumes your esp8266 is within 1MB flash!  It may work in otherwise size or not I am not sure.


零. Download the requisite library:
     In here, You should download the include/upgrade.h,  user/upgrade_lib.c and user/fota_crc32.c., and move them into your ESP8266 project folder. I assume the files place under the sub-folder, dfu-ota, of your project folder.
   
一. Create a c file,  named  dfu_ota.c, under the same sub-folder, the code be :

#include "esp_common.h"

To here, the content under dfu_ota folder  be :

The Makefile under dfu_ota folder, copied from common sub-folder, is with the modification, about line 14:


ifndef PDIR
GEN_LIBS = libdfu_ota.a

The Makefile under your project's root folder, Should be added the dfu_ota content:

And Build the dfu-ota server :

gcc dfu_ota_server.c -o dfu_ota_server


三. Modify your working project and call the function int  device_firmware_upgrade_over_the_air(uint8_t *p_server_ip) while it is time for DFU-OTA.
   Build the binary twice,  one for user1 (the common binary for being downloaded to ESP8266 via USB-UART), one for user2. (while the scrip gen_misc.sh has been executed, "STEP 2: choose bin generate" would determine this build is for user1 or user2), Once the user1 has been build, you should clean the whole output, especially the .o files, before building user2.

 四. Move the built binaries, user1.1024.new.2.bin and user2.1024.new.2.bin to your OTA server and run the dfu_ota_server commnad:

./dfu_ota_server -fw1 user1.1024.new.2.bin -fw2 user2.1024.new.2.bin


五. Before you download the user1 binary to ESP8266 via UART (USB),  It is necessary to ERASE the whole flash. In linux it is very easy, 


sudo python ~/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/esptool.py --port /dev/ttyUSB0 erase_flash

But if you are in Windows, as my knowing, the flashing tool would not erase the flash thoroughly, instead it only cleans the beginning flag. How to erase the flash in Windows authentically I do not know.



It is all, once it is in DFU-OTA, the server would send the Binary to the ESP8266, then ESP8266 would write the binary to the non-current working zone. If the CRC-checking is passed, ESP8266 would reboot from the other zone which contain the binary just downloaded.


※ In my case, I assume the flash size of the ESP8266 device is 1MB, if your device size is greater than it, your downloading firmware command may be need to be modified as :

sudo python ~/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/esptool.py --port /dev/ttyUSB0  write_flash --flash_size=1MB 0x00000 ../ESP8266_RTOS_SDK-1.5.X/bin/boot_v1.7.bin 0x01000 upgrade/user1.1024.new.2.bin  0xFE000 ../ESP8266_RTOS_SDK-1.5.X/bin/blank.bin 0xFC000  esp_init_data_default.bin --flash_mode dout


The hexadecimal codes are the addresses where the following binaries should be locates. The address of esp_init_data_default.bin is flashing-size depending.
for the common esp8266 modules:

    0x7c000 for 512 kB, modules like most ESP-01, -03, -07 etc.
    0xfc000 for 1 MB, modules like ESP8285, PSF-A85, some ESP-01, -03 etc.
    0x1fc000 for 2 MB
    0x3fc000 for 4 MB, modules like ESP-12E, NodeMCU devkit 1.0, WeMos D1 mini
    0x7fc000 for 8 MB
    0xffc000 for 16 MB, modules like WeMos D1 mini pro

      The command  --flash_size=1MB  is to compel esptool treating  the esp8266 module acting as 1 MB flash, thus the esp_init_data_default.bin would be written in addrress 0xFC000.

    If you would not like the esptool treat your module as 1MB flash only,  you should fill the correct address of  esp_init_data_default.bin. But that might lead my DFU-OTA code non-workable.

   Addition : esp_init_data_default.bin is for the configuration of esp8266.In which, it is able to set some configuration which is unable be set via APIs, e.g. configure the ADC function to measure the system voltage. More detail about the configuration, please refer to this document,  section 3.9.
