Future metadata from the LVFS will set the protocol the firmware is expected to use. As vendors love to re-use common terms like DFU for incompatible protocols, namespace them with the controlling company ID with an approximate reverse DNS namespace. This also allows more than one plugin to define support for the same protocol, for instance rts54hid+rts54hub and synapticsmst+dell-dock. |

Wacom USB Support
Introduction
Wacom provides interactive pen displays, pen tablets, and styluses to equip and inspire everyone make the world a more creative place.
From 2016 Wacom has been using a HID-based proprietary flashing algorithm which has been documented by support team at Wacom and provided under NDA under the understanding it would be used to build a plugin under a LGPLv2+ licence.
Wacom devices are actually composite devices, with the main ARM CPU being programmed using a more complicated erase, write, verify algorithm based on a historical update protocol. The "sub-module" devices use a newer protocol, again based on HID, but are handled differently depending on thier type.
Firmware Format
The daemon will decompress the cabinet archive and extract a firmware blob in SREC file format, with a custom vendor header.
GUID Generation
These devices use the standard USB DeviceInstanceId values, e.g.
USB\VID_056A&PID_0378&REV_0001USB\VID_056A&PID_0378USB\VID_056A
