Richard Hughes 6ab53111db Never fallback to an offline update from client code 
UEFI updates don't need to be retried since a785a1c. If the call to Install()
failed with NOT_SUPPORTED we can just show the error rather than doing the
little dance and involving the offline pending database for no reason.

Fixes some of https://github.com/hughsie/fwupd/issues/255

fwupd

Build Status Coverity Scan Build Status

This project aims to make updating firmware on Linux automatic, safe and reliable.

Additional information is available at the website: http://www.fwupd.org

Compiling

The most up to date compilation instructions are available in the Wiki

LVFS

This project is configured by default to download firmware from the Linux Vendor Firmware Service (LVFS).

This service is available to all OEMs and firmware creators who would like to make their firmware available to Linux users.

You can find more information about the technical details of creating a firmware capsule in the hardware vendors section of the fwupd website.

Basic usage flow (command line)

If you have a device with firmware supported by fwupd, this is how you will check for updates and apply them using fwupd's command line tools.

# fwupdmgr get-devices

This will display all devices detected by fwupd.

# fwupdmgr refresh

This will download the latest metadata from LVFS.

# fwupdmgr get-updates

If updates are available for any devices on the system, they'll be displayed.

# fwupdmgr update

This will download and apply all updates for your system.

  • Updates that can be applied live (Online updates) will be done immediately.
  • Updates that require a reboot (Offline updates) will be staged for the next reboot.

You can find more information about the update workflow in the end users section of the fwupd website.

Other frontends

Currently GNOME Software is the only graphical frontend available. When compiled with firmware support, it will check for updates periodically and automatically download firmware in the background.

After the firmware has been downloaded a popup will be displayed in Gnome Software to perform the update.

On Dell IoT gateways, Wyse Cloud Client Manager (CCM) has been built with fwupd support. The remote administration interface can be used to download and deploy firmware updates.
