The register specifications have been taken as a superset of the coreboot
documentation as different flags were documented in more detail on various
different platforms.
Having this new data allows us to add future tests and make the current tests
much easier to understand.
This makes perfect sense, because the 'initiator' starts the transaction and
the 'target' is the addressee of the transaction. Even the I²C spec defines the
'master' as 'initiating' the transaction.
This is the same nomenclature now used by the Glasgow project too.
At the moment we just blindly assume the capabilities of the front-end client
when installing firmware. We can somewhat work around by requiring a new enough
fwupd daemon version, but the client software may be older or just incomplete.
This would allow, for instance, the firmware to specify that it requries the
client to be able to show a detach image. This would not be set by a command
line tool using FwupdClient, but would be set by a GUI client that is capable
of downloading a URL and showing a PNG image.
Clients that do not register features are assumed to be dumb.
The idea here is that we can show the user both a string and an optional
line-art image when the update has completed. The line art is often more well
understood for non-English speakers.
This was an overloaded use of UpdateMessage that didn't make sense.
It doesn't affect the functionality of updating, just the security.
Hints about why the TPM PCR0 reconstruction failed should go
to the wiki page not the device.
We ship 4 *tiny* python scripts that are useful for ODMs and other people
working with low level firmware blobs.
These helper utilities do not warrant dragging Python onto the CoreOS image.
We'll instead check this when the user tries to run an update. This
allows them to sign a bootloader after the daemon starts (or remove
a signed bootloader after starting)
Fixes: #2219
Trying to explain why ICL thunderbolt isn't updatable doesn't help
people. It just causes fwupdmgr and fwupdtool to show the device
front and center with a confusing message.
Instead don't populate the message and by the default device filter
it will be hidden.
See #2212 for background.
Reading the sysfs file seemed to have also eaten the `\n` as mentioned
on a bug.

This means we only parse the complicated xpath query once, rather than for
every GUID the device has.
The code flow is also simplified and split out into two functions.
Newer versions of libxmlb do not auto-cache XbNodes, and we have to opt-into
this beahviour for the _set_data() and _get_data() to work.
Although this is a behaviour change which also increases complexity, it lowers
our RSS usage by 200kB which is about a quarter of the total RSS used...
This allows delaying the activation of Thunderbolt firmware until
shutdown/reboot or when the dock is unplugged.
This functionality requires features in the kernel:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/20200622143035.25327-1-mario.limonciello@dell.com/T/#t
Matrix of cases to support:
* Distro Old Linux kernel (doesn't support authenticate on disconnect)
- WD19TB: Should have `skips-restart` flag set
No flush or activate features called in `thunderbolt` plugin.
`dell_dock` plugin will activate at end of composite update
- All other devices: Shouldn't have flags set
Should authenticate in Thunderbolt plugin.
`1 > nvm_authenticate`
* Distro New Linux kernel (supports authenticate on disconnect)
- WD19TB: Should have `usable-during-update` flag set but not `skips-restart`
Should flush image to SPI in `thunderbolt` plugin
`2 > nvm_authenticate_on_disconnect`
Should configure TBT device for authenticate on disconnect
`1 > nvm_authenticate_on_disconnect`
`dell_dock` plugin will configure dock for authenticate on disconnect
- All other devices: Shouldn't have flags set
Should authenticate in `thunderbolt` plugin.
`1 > nvm_authenticate`
* ChromeOS (supports authenticate on disconnect)
- `thunerbolt.conf` will have `DelayedActivation=true`.
- WD19TB: Should have `usable-during-update` flag set but not `skips-restart`
Should flush image to SPI in `thunderbolt` plugin
`2 > nvm_authenticate_on_disconnect`
Should configure device for authenticate on disconnect
`1 > nvm_authenticate_on_disconnect`
`dell_dock` plugin will configure dock for authenticate on disconnect
- All other devices: Should have both `usable-during-update` and `skips-restart` set
Should flush image to SPI in `thunderbolt` plugin
`2 > nvm_authenticate`
Will activate upon logout/shutdown/reboot
`1 > nvm_authenticate`
