![]() The udev plugin is somewhat special as it uses a non-subclassed FuDevice that never gets 'opened'. This means that we never automatically call fu_device_setup() and thus the instance IDs are not converted into GUIDs before the device is added. |

UDev Support
Introduction
This plugin reads the version numbers of PCI devices. It cannot deploy firmware onto devices but is used to list devices with known firmware updates that may require booting into another operating system to apply.
This plugin is also able to read and parse the firmware of some PCI devices which allows some host state verification to be done.
GUID Generation
These devices use the standard USB DeviceInstanceId values, e.g.
PCI\VEN_%04X&DEV_%04X
Additionally, GUIDs found in OptionROMs may also be added.
