Richard Hughes 9c028f06b5 Move the database of supported devices out into runtime loaded files ... When fwupd is installed in long-term support distros it's very hard to backport new versions as new hardware is released. There are several reasons why we can't just include the mapping and quirk information in the AppStream metadata: * The extra data is hugely specific to the installed fwupd plugin versions * The device-id is per-device, and the mapping is usually per-plugin * Often the information is needed before the FuDevice is created * There are security implications in allowing plugins to handle new devices The idea with quirks is that the end user can drop an additional (or replace an existing) file in a .d director with a simple format and the hardware will magically start working. This assumes no new quirks are required, as this would obviously need code changes, but allows us to get most existing devices working in an easy way without the user compiling anything. This allows us to fix issues like https://github.com/hughsie/fwupd/issues/265		2017-11-02 19:08:51 +00:00
