Vehicle Software Updateslink

Overviewlink

A software update improves or introduces entirely new vehicle features after the vehicle has been built. With each software update there are multiple components that are updated, including the infotainment computer, the autopilot computer, the vehicle gateway, and distributed vehicle controllers. Within a normal vehicle software update are three different update paths, depending on what is being updated. An update to the infotainment computer is known as the "primary update". A "secondary update" is used to update anything other than the infotainment computer or a Gateway-connected control module. Secondary downloads on Cybertruck are used for Autopilot and TCU. A "Gateway-based" update is used to update any of the distributed control modules across the truck. An update can range from minor bug fixes to major changes, like improvements to the user interface or more substantial updates to Autopilot control. There are three different types of updates: vehicle software, navigation maps, and games. The basic steps of an update are Handshake - Download - Verify - Staging - Staged - Installation - Clean Up.

The Updaterlink

Updates are controlled by an application on the vehicle called "the Updater". The Updater coordinates the high-level state of the update and manages the distribution of downloaded files to the vehicle components. Other than prompting the driver when there's a new update available and starting the update, the Updater remains unseen, performing all of its duties without user interaction. It is possible to interact with the Updater to get information and request actions outside of a normal update, however. There are also versions of the Updater that live on the Autopilot computer that manages the installation of Autopilot packages. The Updater will have a different "personality", depending on the infotainment platform: cid-updater, sx-updater, ic-updater, zen-updater. Additionally, the Updater is able to persist over a reboot, loss of power, or loss of connectivity by keeping status files in /var/spool/xxx-updater.

New Software Availabilitylink

Software updates become available periodically. To check to see if new software is available, each vehicle reports its unique configuration of hardware and software to the update servers. On the rare occasion, an important update will be made available outside the normal release cadence.

When there is new software available, both the Tesla mobile app and the UI will notify the user. Checking if there is a newer version available on the UI: Controls > Software. When the "Software" pane loads, the vehicle will automatically check to see if there is a newer version available. The UI will display "Checking for updates..." and then update the availability status. This is based on a data value GUI_softwareUpdateAvailable (true / false).

Software Update Preferencelink

The availability of a new software update partially depends on the software update preference. This can be found on the touchscreen in Controls > Software > Software Update Preferences. The two choices are Standard and Advanced. The selection of this toggle sets the data value GUI_updatePreference.

  • Standard: Receive software updates using the normal rollout time frame.
  • Advanced: Receive the latest software updates as soon as they are available.

Download Status Iconlink

Download Status Icon Icon Name Description
Yellow download arrow New software is available; Wi-Fi connection is needed to download
Green download arrow New software is actively downloading
Yellow clock New software has finished downloading and is ready for installation
Neutral clock New software has finished downloading and has been scheduled to install at a future time.

The software update process can be roughly divided into two steps: download and installation.

To send the new software to the vehicle, the software package must first be downloaded from Tesla servers using a Wi-Fi connection. This is referred to as an over-the-air (OTA) update.

Stages of a Software Update Joblink

Handshakelink

Once a new software update is available, an update job is created with a unique job id. The Updater on the vehicle sees that there is a job and initiates a handshake, an exchange of information between the vehicle and Tesla's servers.

The Updater responds to the handshake with information about what is currently installed on the vehicle.

Based on this information the server sends a handshake response file (JSON) that contains the software update plan, including

  • A URL of the update job
  • The download URL of the primary package http://va.teslamotors.com...
  • Signature of the package
  • Signature of the secondary packages
  • Handshake parameters
  • Type of update: Full download (the complete universal package) or diff (a generated diff between vehicle package and requested package)

Downloadlink

Once a plan is declared for the update job, the Updater updates the version data value: GUI_softwareUpdateVersion and checks if the update has been previously downloaded and could be redeployed instead of downloaded. If the previously downloaded packages match the target, then the download is skipped.

If a download is necessary, then the primary package download begins. The primary package is the main .ssq file which contains the kernel images, boot images, and hex files. The primary package is large, so Wi-Fi is normally required to download. The Updater checks the Wi-Fi data value to see if it is able to download the package. If on Wi-Fi, it starts downloading. If not on Wi-Fi, it enters "Wi-Fi delay".

With a good Wi-Fi connection, the primary package will begin downloading directly to the offline bank on the infotainment computer.

If the vehicle is driven during the download phase, the Updater will pause the download and then resume once Wi-Fi connectivity returns.

The package download progress is reflected in the data value GUI_softwareUpdatePackageDownloadProgress, and download throughput GUI_softwareUpdatePackageDownloadBytesPerSecond is displayed to the user. These data values are important in showing the download on the touchscreen.

This progress bar represents the primary package download (0% - 50% of the bar) and the secondary package download (50% - 100% of the bar).

Since the software packages are large, Wi-Fi is needed to download them. When a new download is available, but the vehicle is not connected to Wi-Fi, it is referred to as "Wi-Fi wait". Wi-Fi wait or Wi-Fi delay is based on periodically checking the data value LINK_linkState and then setting GUI_softwareUpdateWifiWait depending on the value of linkState. If on Wi-Fi delay, the Controls > Software panel will show "Please connect to Wi-Fi to download the Software Update."

Verifylink

The update package is signed by Tesla. After downloading, the Updater validates the package signature to ensure that the file was downloaded successfully. If the signature check fails, the Updater will report a failure and automatically try a new download.

Staginglink

  1. Once the primary package is verified, the Updater mounts the package to the infotainment filesystem and looks inside for some important files

    • Swapped Updater: If the package contains a newer updater, then that package updater is verified and then swapped to become the new updater (referred to as the "swapped updater").
    • Secondary download signatures: Inside the primary package are signature files for the secondary downloads. The Updater uses the signature files to perform a "signature resolution" with mothership and downloads all necessary secondary packages.

  2. After the secondary downloads, the infotainment kernel and recovery kernel are "staged" to the offline bank.

Stagedlink

When the downloads are complete and verified, the Controls > Software panel will display "Update Available"

The user can then decide to start the update "Install Now" or schedule the time to start the update "Scheduled" install. Starting the vehicle update is also known as "gostaged" in Updater speak.

Installationlink

Once the software update starts, there are limits on vehicle behavior.

  • No charging: If charging when the software update begins, charging stops. Charging will resume automatically once the software update completes.
  • UI unavailable: A software update cannot be stopped once it has started the installation.

  • No driving: If the vehicle is being driven at the scheduled update time, the update is canceled and must be rescheduled.

  • The first step in installation is to check the package integrity again before mounting. If the signature is still valid, the primary package is then mounted again.

  • The infotainment kernel is committed.

  • The secondary components (Autopilot and TCU) are staged.

  • Gateway-based updates

    1. The Updater copies over a new Gateway Updater to the Gateway.
    2. The mid voltage battery is checked to make sure the power supply is in a good state, and then the Gateway reboots into update mode.
    3. After rebooting, the Gateway Updater reads the vehicle configuration
    4. Gateway Updater requests two files from the infotainment filesystem: cbreaker and signed_metadata_map.
    5. Hardware ID Acquisition: the Gateway talks to each control module over Etherloop and CAN to determine its hardware ID and currently installed software version.
    6. Gateway Updater locks-out the high voltage contactors to prevent high voltage.
    7. Gateway Updater updates the Gateway software first.
    8. Gateway Updater then updates all connected controllers that have newer software available.

    9. Gateway reports overall result and updates datavalues.

      • GUI_softwareUpdateGatewayInProgress
      • GUI_softwareUpdateProgress 80
      • GUI_softwareUpdateState
      • After the Gateway-based update completes, the TCU, ADSP, and the Tuner are updated.
      • Infotainment computer update

    10. The infotainment computer reboots into the new version, verifying the kernel image signature on boot.

Clean Uplink

  1. Updater logs are uploaded to Tesla's servers.
  2. Update-related data values are reset.
  3. The update is finished with a "termination report", an HTTP POST marking the end of the update.
  4. Release notes are displayed.
