STORAGE -> UPDATE FIRMWARE installs a firmware .bin from the SD card.
The shell command "fwupdate {file}" checks a file, "fwupdate {file} flash"
installs it. Config, calibration and presets (0x0803C000 and up) are never
touched; ROM DFU (jog held at power-on) stays the recovery.
- Image format: STM32F303xC.ld inlines the code rules to place a header
(magic, model, size, version) directly after the vector table and a
trailer (end magic, size, CRC field left unset) at the end of the image.
Only images with the header are accepted.
- Before anything is erased, the running firmware reads the whole file with
FatFs (page CRCs, image CRC, card sector map from FIL.clust) and reads it
again with the raw sector reader used by the update (dry run).
- The flasher runs from CCM RAM with interrupts off and VTOR in CCM. It keeps
page 0 in RAM, erases page 0 first and programs it last after a full image
CRC check, skips unchanged pages, retries errors without user input and
initializes the SD card again after it was removed or keeps failing.
It draws a progress bar and resets only after jog is released, because
jog pressed at reset starts the ROM bootloader.
