Mcumgr based full modem update

The full modem update management library allows performing an update over UART using the SMP protocol, providing an API that exposes functions to register command hooks into the MCU manager (mcumgr) management protocol.

It is used by the nRF9160: Full modem firmware update using SMP Server sample to provide the following functionalities:

  • Modem firmware update to the modem

  • Memory hash function for write verification

It uses command value 0 for getting the hash of an address range and command value 1 for uploading firmware data.

Before calling fmfu_mgmt_init() the modem needs to be set into DFU mode. For more information on how to change the modem mode see Modem library.
