| Summary | 0000774: Add support for XIP kernel images. | ||||
| Description | This is required for PicoCOM3 and PicoMOD6/7 kernel images. Updating XIP images challenges much higher software requirement as it might be possible that the system tries to load some data from kernel partition during or after updating process, which might lead into system instability. | ||||

It looks like most procedures for a proper kernel update seem to offer much more preparations and general design changes (like two separate NANDimage regions). But as we require a functionality for systems that are in the field right now, I am currently focusing on minimizing the risk of errors. Unfortunatly this is not working that properly yet. System may freeze after kernel has been updated. Therefore platform will automatically be rebooted. New commandline option (-r) will be forced in case of a XIP image update (0000775). |
