In fwupd 1.5.1 and before, we allowed ESP on external device.
From 56d816a5, (Fall back to FAT32 internal partitions for detecting
ESP, 2020-11-11), we started to only consider internal devices only.
While it would be desirable to only consider internal devices for
fallback esp partition, there're some setup that put ESP on external
device, e.g. full disk encryption with /boot on a USB.
Let's allow external ESP again.
This plugin supports reading the keyboard firmware version at runtime and
rebooting the keyboard to USB DFU mode. Tested with firmware uploaded to
embargo-system76.
When this is done, include:
* Including the hash
* Including anything that is not ABI stable in plugins yet

Each -dev package needs to depend on all dependencies' -dev packages
that are required when linking against the included library with
pkg-config.
Closes: #980691, #980684
This allows much better compression (-60%) than gziping them individually and
also allows us to build the capsule UX images as part of the build stage.
Also add more popular screen resolutions for laptops you can buy in 2021.
The coreboot plugin never actually gained the ability to write. As it stands a
coreboot system now adds *two* system-firmware devices (from both flashrom and
coreboot) which isn't ideal.
Just allow flashrom to enumerate quirked devices and add coreboot-specific
metadata as required. If we require some kind of cbfs parsing then we can do
that in FuFlashromDevice->prepare_firmware().
Although we could reconstruct the PCR0 value on the LVFS from the (already
included) event log, it's much more scalable if the client just provides the
data that we want to filter by.
I was asked the other day how many machines would support a /dev/mem mmap'd
update mechanism, and I had to say that I didn't know. We use direct port IO in
the SuperIO plugin too, and it would be good to know how quickly we need to
port this to something else.
It's unusual, but if BIOS lock enable is enabled (so we cannot *change* the
value of BIOSWE) but the BIOS is already WE then we can write to the hardware
just fine.
This is really useful when working out HwId quirk values for remote systems.
fwupdtool export-hwids target.hwids
vim target.hwids
fwupdtool hwids target.hwids
Once a device has been scheduled for update mark the others from the same plugin
as updatable-hidden rather than updatable so that fwupdmgr or gnome-software
does not try to offer updates for them.
This is preferable to quitting with an error in FuDevice->prepare as we don't
want to waste bandwidth downloading the next update and then show the user an
error they can't possibly understand.
Exclude the currently scheduled device to allow the user to change the scheduled
release and so the pending device does not disappear from UI tools.
We only convert the instance IDs to GUID after setup() has been called, which
means if we add even more instance IDs to the device in functions like
fu_plugin_device_registered() they never actually get converted to the GUID
form too.
