This also means we now include a flashrom subproject as no distro currently has
a flashrom new enough to build the plugin.

If a device reports that qmi-pdc is supported (e.g. DW5821e that
supports both fastboot and qmi-pdc), we'll end up first running the
fastboot installation before doing the qmi-pdc installation procedure.
These changes also make sure that the MM device inhibition is kept for
as long as the whole process is ongoing. Only after the last method is
run, the inhibition will be removed.
In order to handle devices being exposed in the system while the MM
inhibition is in place, e.g. to be able to run qmi-pdc after fastboot,
a simple udev based watcher is included, which will take care of
creating the FuMmDevice that is not associated to any modem currently
exposed by MM, but that shares all the details of the original device.
This new logic assumes that the devices don't change their USB layout
during a firmware upgrade, which is not a very good assumption, but it
works for the case at hand. If this is not the case, we may need to
end up doing some custom AT port probing instead of relying on the
original one reported by MM being still valid (note that we don't rely
on the device name, as that may change if some other device is plugged
in the system while we're doing the update, we rely on the USB
interface number).
This also allows us to write mixed-endian structures and adds tests. As part of
this commit we've also changed the API of something that's not yet been in any
tarball release, so no pitchforks please.
Similar to NVME, ATA drives distributed by Dell have special values
that should be used to designate fwupd GUIDs and only run correct
firmware.
When detecting Dell GUIDs remove the standard fwupd GUIDs. "Generic"
firmware targeted to those GUIDs will fail to install.
This speeds up matching for GUIDs by about 90%, taking the query from 3.17ms to
about 0.33ms on my Thinkpad. This is more important for slow ARM hardware,
where strcmp() is more expensive than on x64.
The current libxmlb dependency requires this and when run in subproject
mode will cause failures otherwise.
Also bump the snap to use meson 0.47.2 to fix snap build due to this
failure.
The libxmlb library is much faster to query, and does not require the daemon
to parse the XML metadata at startup. It's a zero-copy mmap design that is more
modern and less clunky.
RSS has reduced from 3Mb (peak 3.61Mb) to 1Mb (peak 1.07Mb) and the startup
time has gone from 280ms to 250ms.
Redfish is an open industry standard specification and schema that helps enable
simple and secure management of modern scalable platform hardware.
This has only ever been tested using an emulator and not on real hardware.
Commit 83d46b0579 bumped the minimum meson version to 0.46.0
This makes building on current Ubuntu LTS release more difficult
as it contains 0.45.0.
Instead conditionalize the build to run that code when on newer
meson.
This commit can be reverted when it's appropriate to bump meson
build dependency.
In Fedora the only user of libfwupdate is fwupd and the fwupdate command line
tool. It makes sense to absorb the libfwupdate library interface into the
uefi plugin in fwupd. Benefits I can see include:
* fwupd and fwupdate are very similar names; a lot of OEMs are confused
* fwupd already depends on efivar for other things
* We are maintaining an artificial library interface
* The CI and translation hooks are already in place for fwupd
* We don't need to check for features or versions in fwupd, we can just develop
the feature (e.g. BGRT) all in one place.
