recovery代码分析之三：try_update_binary

        OTA升级包路径META-INF\com\google\android中，存在着两个关键的文件：update-script和update-binary。在这两个脚本文件中，update-script记载着系统升级所需要执行的命令（如图1所示），而update-binary则是对于每条命令的解析。进入recovery模式后，系统将会执行文件中记载的命令，完成升级。

由http://blog.csdn.net/liudekuan/article/details/8707044可知，在文件./bootable/recovery/install.c中定义了对应于每条命令的执行函数（如图2所示），即在recovery模式下

，系统会将这些命令转换为相应的函数去执行。而RegisterInstallFunctions函数在./bootable/recovery/update.c中被调用，在源码编译过程中，./bootable/recovery/updater目录下的代码被编译为可执行文件：out/target/product/sp8825ea/system/bin/updater，供recovery模式下系统使用。

代码段1 try_update_binary函数

        ./bootable/recovery/install.c中的try_update_binary函数，是真正实现读取升级包中的脚本文件并执行相应的函数的地方。在此函数中，通过调用fork函数创建出一个子进程（代码第72行），在子进程中开始读取并执行升级脚本文件（代码73-78）。在此需要注意的是函数fork的用法，fork被调用一次，将做两次返回，在父进程中返回的是子进程的进程ID，为正数；而在子进程中，则返回0。因此代码73-78事实是子进程中所进行的操作，即execv(binary, args)。子进程创建成功后，开始执行升级代码，并通过管道与父进程交互（代码27-28，创建管道，并将pipefd[1]作为参数传递给子进程，子进程则将相关信息写入到此管道描述符中）；而父进程则通过读取子进程传递过来的信息更新UI（代码84-114）。
