Richard Hughes cf100293b5 Do not export useless device attributes to the client 
That giant uint64_t isn't looking so big now, and we'll want to add even more
to it in the future. Split out some private flags that are never useful to the
client, although the #defines will have to remain until we break API again.

Flashrom

Introduction

This plugin uses flashrom to update the system firmware.

Firmware Format

The daemon will decompress the cabinet archive and extract a firmware blob in an unspecified binary file format, which is typically the raw input for an EEPROM programmer.

This plugin supports the following protocol ID:

  • org.flashrom

GUID Generation

These device uses hardware ID values which are derived from SMBIOS. They should match the values provided by fwupdtool hwids or the ComputerHardwareIds.exe Windows utility.

Vendor ID Security

The vendor ID is set from the BIOS vendor, for example DMI:Google

External interface access

This plugin requires access to all interfaces that libflashrom has been compiled for. This typically is /sys/bus/spi but there may be other interfaces as well.
