rustybbd — Software — Embedded Product Development

What it is

rustybbd downloads a firmware image into a CANopen device's bootloader using the standard SDO program-download objects. It is an independent, behaviour-derived implementation of the open CiA 301/302 profile — no vendor code, no account, just a single static binary.

Drives the full flash sequence: detect the bootloader, erase, stream blocks, verify, and start the application
Segmented or block SDO transfer, with optional vendor-ID / product-code validation
Works with any SocketCAN interface, from a physical can0 to USB-CAN gateways or a virtual vcan
Open source under Apache-2.0 — read it, audit it, and build it yourself
