[[RFC PATCH] v2 12/14] discover/platform-powerpc: Platform Firmware Updates

Samuel Mendoza-Jonas sam at mendozajonas.com
Thu Jan 18 16:05:15 AEDT 2018


Provide an interface to update the current firmware on POWER platforms.
Currently this supports updating only on BMC-based platforms, ie. those
where platform firmware is stored in a PNOR device accessible via MTD.
The pflash utility is used to safely access MTD and provide progress
updates to the user.

Platform updates are currently only intended for development use, and
explicitly not recommended in production environments. This is primarily
because there is no authentication or verification of the update
metadata or update source due to the lack of HTTPS and certificate
management in existing Petitboot environments (eg. op-build).
Platform updates are only enabled if the "petitboot,platform_update?"
parameter is set to true, and are by default disabled.
