Richard Hughes b333e0045c Split out a shared system context
There is a lot of code in fwupd that just assigns a shared object type to
a FuPlugin, and then for each device on that plugin assigns that same shared
object to each FuDevice.

Rather than proxy several kinds of information stores over two different levels
of abstraction create a 'context' which contains the shared *system* state
between the daemon, the plugins and the daemon.

This will allow us to hold other per-machine state in the future, for instance
the system battery level or AC state.

Realtek RTS54 HUB Support

Introduction

This plugin allows the user to update any supported hub and attached downstream ICs using a custom HUB-based flashing protocol. It does not support any RTS54xx device using the HID update protocol.

Other devices connected to the RTS54xx using I2C will be supported soon.

Firmware Format

The daemon will decompress the cabinet archive and extract a firmware blob in an unspecified binary file format.

This plugin supports the following protocol IDs:

  • com.realtek.rts54
  • com.realtek.rts54.i2c

GUID Generation

These devices use the standard USB DeviceInstanceId values, e.g.

  • USB\VID_0BDA&PID_5423&REV_0001
  • USB\VID_0BDA&PID_5423
  • USB\VID_0BDA

Update Behavior

The firmware is deployed when the device is in normal runtime mode, and the device will reset when the new firmware has been written.

Vendor ID Security

The vendor ID is set from the USB vendor, in this instance set to USB:0x0BDA

External interface access

This plugin requires read/write access to /dev/bus/usb.
