RIOT bootloader test

This is a basic example how to use RIOT bootloader in your embedded application.

This test should foremost give you an overview how to use riotboot:

  • make all build the test using the target riotboot, which generates a binary file of the application with a header on top of it, used by the bootloader to recognise a bootable image.

  • make riotboot/flash creates the binary files and flashes both riotboot and the RIOT image with headers included. This should boot as a normal application.

In this test two modules riotboot_hdr and riotboot_slot are used to showcase the access to riotboot shared functions.

  • make test can be executed to run the automatic Python test that checks basic functionalities of riotboot
