Firmware Management for MCUs: The Quark Bootloader Approach - Daniele Alessandrelli, Intel

Feedback form is now closed.
The Intel Quark Microcontroller Bootloader (qm-bootloader) is the reference bootloader for Intel Quark MCUs. Qm-bootloader is released under a BSD license and available on GitHub.
One of the main features of qm-bootloader is its DFU-based Firmware Management functionality over USB and UART. The DFU protocol and its most popular host-side implementation, dfu-util, have been adapted to UART, in order to provide users with a uniform firmware-upgrade experience. Additionally, on top of DFU, a simple Firmware Management protocol has been implemented, extending DFU functionality beyond mere firmware upgrades.
The talk will cover qm-bootloader design and implementation, focusing on its Firmware Management functionality and discussing possible security extensions.
The concepts presented are not limited to Intel architectures, but can be leveraged on different platforms.
