Automatically updating firmware on UAVCAN connected nodes #5225

Closed pavel-kirienko closed 3 years ago

pavel-kirienko commented 7 years ago

At the moment, it is not possible to upload new firmware to a UAVCAN connected node from an APM-powered autopilot.

PX4 has this feature since version 1.0; it is somewhat documented here http://dev.px4.io/uavcan-node-firmware.html#firmware-installation-on-the-autopilot, and the implementation is located here: https://github.com/PX4/Firmware/blob/master/src/modules/uavcan/uavcan_servers.cpp.

Protocol-level documentation is available at http://uavcan.org/Specification/6._Application_level_functions/#firmware-update, and Libuavcan-specific docs are at http://uavcan.org/Implementations/Libuavcan/Tutorials/11._Firmware_update.
