There are a lot of hacks here;
* Pulling newer libappstream-glib from Fedora
* Pulling a systemd backport
* Manually installing pillow and pygobject
* PKCS7 is turned off (gnutls is too old)
GLib creates two static inline functions for paramaters that may
not be used that set off warnings in clang but not gcc.
Ignore these on clang builds everywhere that
G_DEFINE_AUTOPTR_CLEANUP_FUNC is used.
It's actually less scary to see a SHA1 hash than it is to see a path like
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.2. It's also way easier to
copy and paste into the various fwupdmgr command that require a device ID and
also means we can match a partial prefix much like git allows.
If we also move to a model where plugins can be changed during different stages
of the update (e.g. during detach) then the device might change connection type
and then the sysfs path not only becomes difficult to paste, but incorrect.
Session software doesn't care about the format of the device ID (it is supposed
to be an implementation detail) and so there's no API or ABI break here. A few
plugins also needed to be ported, but nothing too worrying.
umockdev 0.9.4 changed how to test for running in mock and this
causes the assumptions on mock testing at init to fail.
Move the test for this to after the environment has been set up.
Thunderbolt has a new kernel interface starting from version 4.13,
which simplifies updating the host controller and devices: the
kernel now exposes a sysfs interface for the non-volatile memory
as a device node. This can be used to write the new firmware blob.
Updates are then triggered also via a simple write to a sysfs
file (nvm_authenticate), which in turn is also used for error
reporting.
The plugin should be functionally, but a few items are missing:
- image verification
- safe mode handling
