NVS Bootloader

The purpose of this example is to show how to use the simplified, read-only API of NVS flash that can be used as a part of bootloader

Usage of this example:

Simply compile it:

idf.py build

Then flash it and open the monitor with the following command:

idf.py flash monitor

If everything went well, the console output should contain three blocks of log messages. For detailed explanation, please see the comments in the source code file nvs_bootloader_example.c

First block shows indication of invalid parameters.

At the end the firmware starts regular application and just prints the message:

I (3212) main_task: Calling app_main()
User application is loaded and running.
I (3212) main_task: Returned from app_main()

Organisation of this example

The code demonstrating the use of nvs in bootloader is in bootloader_components/nvs_bootloader_example. This code is executed during bootloader run. Bootloader hooks technique is used to extend the default bootloader. The main function demonstrating the functionality is bootloader_after_init() in the src/nvs_bootloader_example

The example creates request/response array read_list[], populates it with identifiers of the data to be read. Function nvs_bootloader_read() tries to find respective data in the partition (here "nvs") and if the data is found, it populates the request/response array with data. For nvs entries either not found or not matching are indicated in response array as well. Function log_nvs_bootloader_read_list()is used before and after reading from nvs to show request/response data to the console.
