Introduction

In RDK, User Initiated Firmware upgrade is handled by org.rdk.System Plugin through ‘updateFirmware’ method. System plugin will invoke ‘deviceInitiatedFWDnld.sh’  script to communicate with Xconf server and fetch firmware information. Image download will be initiated by ‘deviceInitiatedFWDnld.sh’. Once download is completed then a device specific script will be executed. The device specific script can have implementation specific to the platform and will invoke the Flash Utility after verifying integrity of the firmware.
