The amount of memory used for ROMFS writing must be specified at compile time and has a default of 16KB. Storage capacity is limited to the remaining flash memory that is not occupied by the bootloader, application, and existing ROMFS. Remember, these files will be read only and must share the 256KB flash memory with the application and bootloader.įor write operations to internal flash memory, enet_tftpd uses a non-standard ROMFS filesystem. Use the makefs.bat utility in the enet_tftpd directory to convert the files in the enet_tftpd\fs\ directory to the lmi-fsdata.h header file. These files are included as lmi-fsdata.h and occupy a part of the object code. The enet_tftpd example uses a standard ROMFS filesystem for supporting read operations from files included at compile time. Uploading an existing file will overwrite the old file. A virtually unlimited number of new files can be uploaded via TFTP, dependent on memory space.
The FAT sub-type is also required to be either FAT12, FAT16, or FAT32. The FatFs file system limits file sizes to 4GB, volume size to 2TB, cluster size to 64KB, and sector size to 4KB. This allows the data on the microSD to be read with other FAT compatible systems (including Windows, Linux, Mac OSX). This application uses the FatFs FAT file system for embedded systems.
A soft reset can then allow the board to boot with the new firmware in place. Again, this can be done without physically accessing the board and without interruption.Īpplications can be developed so that uploaded data will be used to reprogram the firmware in flash memory. New and updated scripts which control your embedded application can be uploaded remotely from a network machine. The board does not have to be physically accessed or taken offline. TFTP currently supports two different modes, "netascii" (ASCII) and "octet" (binary) with a third "mail" mode being made obsolete in 1992 by RFC1350.ĭata collected and stored on the Eagle can be easily accessed and downloaded remotely via TFTP. It's only features the reading and writing of files and does not offer any other advanced features or security. Its purpose is to move files between machines on different networks and is designed to be small and easily implemented. TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) is a very simple file transfer protocol commonly implemented on top of UDP (User Datagram Protocol) using port number 69.
