I'm using Lenovo A 5800-D running on 4.4, it suddenly showed system updates today, what does it mean? Is it about my os?

It may be a total os upgrade, it could be partial too.
Android 4.4 is becoming outdated, it may not support some applications any longer. Go ahead and update, but your data may be crying after the update depending on the size.

Make sure battery is fully charged before updating.

What's the difference between partial and total upgrade?

And ensure you unroot your phone (if it's rooted) before you update it.

Op I will advise you get a backup before proceeding Incase of softbrick

Make sure you unroot your phone

Make sure you don't remove the battery when updating

Make sure your phone is fully charged before updating

Don't you ever quote me to spew gibberish ever again. I was using a rooted lenovo phone (A319), received an update, downloaded it and it got bricked. If you don't know shit just ask before you start shaking your head for no apparent reason.
