And a question that the last pack is less than 1k,but i have to flash_write 1k to flash,the data that more than img should be 0x00 or 0xff

Hi,Vidar

I have writed data to slot1_partition,and read first 1k data and last 1k data into buf, have no difference with the img i write into flash,so the data should be right.And boot_request_upgrade return 0.

Do there any idea to figure out what happend the next reset time?

Best regard

Good to hear that the build error got resolved. This should have been shown as a Kconfig warning in the build log.

Please compare it to the modified hello world sample below and see if you are to see what we are doing differently.

yes,I am sure I have repaced it

Did you remember to replace the include header with <zephyr/dfu/mcuboot.h>?

RE: how to make new image takes effect

Martin Evans — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 13:27:35 GMT

But do this will makes anoter err happened just like what i have said

RE: how to make new image takes effect

Vidar Berg — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 13:20:49 GMT

I see the problem now with using the relative include path. You can include "#include <zephyr/dfu/mcuboot.h>" instead and call

boot_request_upgrade(1); instead.

Good new is that boot_set_pending return 0-success.

Bad new is that the new img is not take effect.

My primary slot makes led green,and Secondary turn it into red. boot_set_pending(1) return 0,after reset it is still green.

I try boot_set_pending now,it can pass the complie,but a warning happend.
warning: implicit declaration of function "boot_set_pending"

It must be that i am not include the head file,but once i do #include <bootutil/bootutil_public.h>,an ERROR(No such file....) wil happen.Any solution plz?

Did you try to call boot_set_pending()?

RE: how to make new image takes effect

Martin Evans — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 12:59:45 GMT

CONFIG_IMG_MANAGER=y is added as well

RE: how to make new image takes effect

Martin Evans — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 12:58:50 GMT

I added it but report err: No such file.

And i find this link.I added
CONFIG_MCUBOOT_IMG_MANAGER=y
CONFIG_MCUBOOT_BOOTUTIL_LIB=y

to my conf file, and #include <zephyr/dfu/mcuboot.h> .

But still report undedined reference boot_request_upgrade.

RE: how to make new image takes effect

Vidar Berg — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 12:53:49 GMT

Did you include the "#include <bootutil/bootutil_public.h>" header in your source file as well?

RE: how to make new image takes effect

Martin Evans — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 12:32:06 GMT

Thanx, Ive added CONFIG_MCUBOOT_IMG_MANAGER=y in my prj.conf,but compile failed,report that boot_set_pending is undefined.

RE: how to make new image takes effect

Vidar Berg — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 12:25:32 GMT

Yes. The bootutil functions is included in the app by enabling CONFIG_MCUBOOT_IMG_MANAGER in your project configuration.

RE: how to make new image takes effect

Martin Evans — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 12:16:03 GMT

What u mean is that i shold call boot_set_pending() in application after flash_write finished right?
But this file bootutil_publich.c and its head file are in \ncs\v2.9.0\bootloader\mcuboot\boot\bootutil\src,How to say...how i include its path?

RE: how to make new image takes effect

Vidar Berg — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 12:11:40 GMT

Sorry for not being clearer, but you should call the function from the main app, not the bootloader. I don't reckognize the bootloader code you posted.

Boot log cannot output in my serial,what should i do?

RE: how to make new image takes effect

Vidar Berg — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 05:21:52 GMT

Please check the return code from boot_set_pending().

RE: how to make new image takes effect

Martin Evans — Tue, 11 Mar 2025 09:36:11 GMT

Hello Berg,

thanx for help.I tried boot_set_pending(1),but still cannot makes it effect. I call This api in \ncs\v2.9.0\bootloader\mcuboot\boot\zephyr\main.c int main()

is it right?

Best regard

Hello,

You can mark the image as "pending" with this function: https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-mcuboot/blob/148712e7b4618aadbedd04e8d3ce5c3847d3be4f/boot/bootutil/include/bootutil/bootutil_public.h#L205.

Best regards,

Vidar
