![]() In many plugins we've wanted to use ->prepare_firmware() to parse the firmware ahead of ->detach() and ->write_firmware() but this has the limitation that it can only return a single blob of data. For many devices, multiple binary blobs are required from one parsed image, for instance providing signatures, config and data blobs that have to be pushed to the device in different way. This also means we parse the firmware *before* we ask the user to detach. Break the internal FuDevice API to support these firmware types as they become more popular. This also allows us to move the Intel HEX and SREC parsing out of the dfu plugin as they are used by a few plugins now, and resolving symbols between plugins isn't exactly awesome. |

SuperIO
This plugin enumerates the various ITE85* SuperIO embedded controller ICs found
in many laptops. Vendors wanting to expose the SuperIO functionality will need
to add a HwId quirk entry to superio.quirk
.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_I/O for more details about SuperIO and what the EC actually does.

GUID Generation
These devices use a custom GUID generated using the SuperIO chipset name:
SuperIO-$(chipset)
, for exampleSuperIO-IT8512
