URichard Hughes, umdali wephrojekthi ye-PackageKit futhi obambe iqhaza ngenkuthalo ekuthuthukisweni kwe-GNOME, umemezele ukukhululwa kwe-fwupd 1.8.0, enikeza inqubo yangemuva yokuhlela izibuyekezo ze-firmware kanye nensiza ebizwa ngokuthi fwupdmgr yokuphatha i-firmware, ukuhlola izinguqulo ezintsha, nokulanda i-firmware. . Ikhodi yephrojekthi ibhalwe ngo-C futhi isatshalaliswa ngaphansi kwelayisensi ye-LGPLv2.1. Ngaso leso sikhathi, kwamenyezelwa ukuthi iphrojekthi ye-LVFS isifinyelele ingqophamlando yezibuyekezo ze-firmware eziyizigidi ezingama-50 ezilethwe kubasebenzisi.
Le phrojekthi inikeza ama-OEM nabathuthukisi be-firmware insizakalo yokulayisha i-firmware kusiqondisi esikhethekile esimaphakathi se-LVFS (i-Linux Vendor Firmware Service), engasetshenziswa ekusatshalalisweni kwe-Linux kusetshenziswa ikhithi yamathuluzi ye-fwupd. Njengamanje, ikhathalogi inikeza i-firmware yezinhlobo ezingama-829 zamadivayisi (i-firmware engaphezu kuka-4000) evela kubakhiqizi abayi-120. Ukusebenzisa uhla lwemibhalo oluphakathi nendawo kususa isidingo sokuthi abakhiqizi benze amaphakheji okusabalalisa futhi kubavumele ukuthi badlulisele i-firmware endaweni yomlando ethi β.cabβ enemethadatha eyengeziwe, ebuye isetshenziswe lapho kushicilela i-firmware ye-Windows.
fwupd isekela kokubili imodi yokuvuselela i-firmware ezenzakalelayo, ngaphandle kwesidingo sanoma yisiphi isenzo ngasohlangothini lomsebenzisi, kanye nokwenziwa komsebenzi ngemva kokuqinisekiswa noma isicelo somsebenzisi. I-Fwupd ne-LVFS sezivele zisetshenziswa ku-RHEL, Fedora, Ubuntu, SUSE, Debian nokunye ukusatshalaliswa okuningi kwezibuyekezo ze-firmware ezizenzakalelayo, futhi zisekelwa ku-GNOME Software kanye nezinhlelo zokusebenza ze-KDE Discover. Kodwa-ke, i-fwupd ayinqunyelwe ezinhlelweni zedeskithophu futhi ingasetshenziswa ukuthuthukisa i-firmware kuma-smartphones, amaphilisi, amaseva kanye namadivayisi we-inthanethi Yezinto.
Ekukhishweni okusha:
- Kwengezwe isibaluli esisha sama-CPU asekelwa ku-HSI (I-ID Yokuvikeleka Yokusingatha) indlela yokuvikela i-firmware.
- Izihlukanisi ze-CoSWID nezihlonzi ze-uSWID zengezwe ku-libfwupdplugin, ezihlinzeka ngosekelo lokuqala lwe-SBoM (I-Firmware Software Bill of Materials) ukuze kuqinisekiswe i-firmware.
- Kwengezwe izibaluli ezintsha ze-HSI zezingxenye zosekelo zepulatifomu ye-AMD (AMD PSP).
- Kwengezwe ukutholwa kwenguqulo ye-fwupd-efi (org.freedesktop.fwupd-efi).
- Umyalo othi 'fwupdmgr install' unikeza amandla okufaka inguqulo ye-firmware ethile.
- Kungenzeka ukuqalisa kabusha isilawuli se-BMC (I-Baseboard Management Controller) ngemva kokufaka isibuyekezo se-firmware.
