libfwupdplugin

This library is only partially API and ABI stable. Keeping unused, unsafe and deprecated functions around forever is a maintenance burden and so symbols are removed when branching for new minor versions.

Remember: Plugins should be upstream!

1.6.2

• fu_device_has_custom_flag(): Use fu_device_has_private_flag() instead.

1.6.3

• fu_device_sleep_with_progress(): Use fu_progress_sleep() instead -- but be aware the unit of time has changed from seconds to milliseconds.

1.8.2

• fu_udev_device_pread_full(): Use fu_udev_device_pread() instead -- as the latter now specifies the buffer length.
• fu_udev_device_pread_full(): Use fu_udev_device_pwrite() instead -- as the latter now specifies the buffer length.
• fu_udev_device_ioctl_full(): Use fu_udev_device_ioctl() instead -- as the latter now always specifies the timeout.
