meta-ked-imx: Use fitImageA/B instead of active/inactive
This is supposed to fix a problem where you can end up with two non-working images.
This can be triggered by the following actions:
- Starting with rootfs A and
fitImage_active
- Doing an update via swupdate using a corrupted kernel image
-
fitImage_active
gets renamed tofitImage_inactive
- The corrupted kernel now in
fitImage_active
fails to boot - A fallback to rootfs A occurs: rootfs A is started together
with the working
fitImage_inactive
- On the next update via swupdate the corrupted
fitImage_active
is renamed tofitImage_inactive
ending up with two corrupted kernel images - The now corrupted
fitImage_inactive
is copied tofitImage_active
and the boot is bricked
To remedy this flaw, simply swap the fitImage
in sync with the rootfs.
Instead of the active/inactive image we now use A/B for the kernel image
and the currently used image is selected by the sys_active
file.
