This allows us to handle this in the plugin, which might mean detaching the
*proxy* device. It's also very important as a few plugins reboot the device
in ->attach() to get the new firmware version, which isn't required for a dump.
This partially reverts a58510b246 and does the
detach and attach in the few plugins where actually required.
With how well fwupd UEFI updates work these days >99% of people
don't need to see messages about the capsule update running.
Those who have problems, this isn't going to help them.
Firsly, that HSI isn't expected for embedded devices and then secondary how we
require SecureBoot to be available for HSI:1
At the moment we get a runtime failure if it is disabled. Making SB a part of
`HSI:1` makes this requiremnt explicit and prevents us getting `HSI:2!` if it
is not available.
This is never set in the AppStream metadata, and means that every call to
fu_engine_ensure_device_supported() at startup does not generate 16x debugs.
For cab archives we know if the archive was unsigned as we show the flags in
the to_string() output.
The 721C is a VL103, which isn't a FuVliUsbhubDevice at all. Fixes the:
already set GType to FuVliPdDevice, ignoring FuVliUsbhubDevice
...message when the Mini dock / powered hub is inserted.
On my system I get 16 lines of 'device overwriting same name value' for the ME
device. Once we set valid metadata about a device just remove the flag to stop
scanning for every call to fu_engine_ensure_device_supported()
This would also help, for example, to go back to the nonfree firmware when the
alternate firmware did not work as well as hoped. It would also allow flashing
the firmware using an SPI programmer if everything went very wrong indeed.
This allows a device to identify with different streams, for instance a Lenovo
laptop could have a coreboot firmware or a AMI firmware. The GUIDs would be the
same, but switching firmware would only be done rarely and very carefully.
Another example would be switching the Broadcom BCM57xx nework adaptors from the
vendor nonfree firmware with a signed PXE image, to the free software reverse
engineered driver with no PXE support (and thus no signed DXE) at all.
It is expected firmware would have additional metadata something like this:
...
<branch>sdcc</branch>
<description>
<p>
This is an alternate firmware built by the community using only free
software tools.
</p>
</description>
<requires>
<id compare="ge" version="1.5.0">org.freedesktop.fwupd</id>
<client>switch-branch</client>
</requires>
...
Additionally, alternate branch firmware will not be returned for clients not
setting the FWUPD_FEATURE_FLAG_SWITCH_BRANCH before the GetReleases request.
This change will allow it to use pkcon over remote-shells (ssh) or
to use it witout a running GUI desktop environment in the background.
Should fix https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues/2429
If we wait for the child of a composite device to reappear and *then* go on to
update the replugged parent in the same transaction then we still use the old
GUsbDevice as the add event is still pending when we quit the replug loop.
Just schedule an idle action to quit the loop to allow the child *and* parent
to be added on replug.
Fixes https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues/2376
Use one of the errors mapping to FWUPD_UPDATE_STATE_FAILED_TRANSIENT to avoid
uploading a failure report for something the user has to fix, i.e. update the
distro shim package.
