NAME
libfwup - library to support management of system firmware updates
SYNOPSIS
#include <fwup.h>
int fwup_supported(void);
- test if firmware updating is supported on the running machine
typedef struct fwup_resource_s fwup_resource;
typedef struct fwup_resource_iter_s fwup_resource_iter;
int fwup_resource_iter_create(fwup_resource_iter **iter);
int fwup_resource_iter_next(fwup_resource_iter *iter,
fwup_resource **re);
int fwup_resource_iter_destroy(fwup_resource_iter **iter);
- iterate the list of updateable firmware images
int fwup_set_guid(fwup_resource_iter *iter, fwup_resource **re,
const efi_guid_t *guid);
- manually set a guid for update
int fwup_set_guid_forced(fwup_resource_iter *iter, fwup_resource **re,
const efi_guid_t *guid, bool force);
- manually set a guid for update (with a force option)
void fwup_resource_free(fwup_resource *re);
- free resource allocated by fwup_set_guid_forced()
int fwup_set_up_update(fwup_resource *re, uint64_t hw_inst, int infd);
int fwup_clear_status(fwup_resource *re);

uint32_t *status, time_t *when);
- operate on an individual firmware entry
int fwup_get_debug_log(char **utf8, size_t *size);
- show the debug log from the last update attempt
void fwup_use_existing_media_path(int use_existing_media_path);
- instruct fwupdate on whether to reuse old capsule filenames on the ESP.
void fwup_set_esp_mountpoint(char *path);
- Override detection of the mountpoint for the ESP directory
const char *fwup_get_esp_mountpoint(void);
- Get the current mountpoint for the ESP directory

- get the dimensions of the screen during boot
DESCRIPTION
int fwup_supported(void);
Tests if the current machine supports firmware updates
typedef struct fwup_resource_s fwup_resource;
typedef struct fwup_resource_iter_s fwup_resource_iter;
int fwup_resource_iter_create(fwup_resource_iter **iter);
Create a new firmware resoure iterator iter.
int fwup_resource_iter_next(fwup_resource_iter *iter,
fwup_resource **re);
Get the next firmware resource re from iterator iter.
int fwup_resource_iter_destroy(fwup_resource_iter **iter);
Destroy firmware resource iterator iter.
int fwup_set_up_update(fwup_resource *re, uint64_t hw_inst, int infd);
Set up an update for resource re, hardware instance number hw_inst,
with the file referenced by the file descriptor infd. infd must
support read(3).
int fwup_clear_status(fwup_resource *re);
Clear the status of the firmware resource re. This removes any pending
attempt to update it, as well as clearing any pending error report.
int fwup_get_guid(fwup_resource *re, efi_guid_t **guid);
Set guid to the GUID which uniquely identifies firmware resource re.
int fwup_get_fw_version(fwup_resource *re, uint32_t *version);
Set version to the version of the firmware resource re.
#define FWUP_RESOURCE_TYPE_UNKNOWN 0
#define FWUP_RESOURCE_TYPE_SYSTEM_FIRMWARE 1
#define FWUP_RESOURCE_TYPE_DEVICE_FIRMWARE 2
#define FWUP_RESOURCE_TYPE_UEFI_DRIVER 3
int fwup_get_fw_type(fwup_resource *re, uint32_t *type);
Set type to the type of the firmware resource re.
int fwup_get_lowest_supported_fw_version(fwup_resource *re,
uint32_t *version);
Set version to the lowest firmware version resource re can be
updated to.
int fwup_get_last_attempt_info(fwup_resource *re, uint32_t *version,
uint32_t *status, time_t *when);
Get the status for the last attempt to update firmware resource re.
int fwup_get_debug_log(char **utf8, size_t *size);
Get the debug log from the last update attempt. This allocates a buffer
which the caller must free.
void fwup_print_update_info(void);
Print the information of firmware update status.
void fwup_use_existing_media_path(int use_existing_media_path);
Instruct fwupdate on whether to reuse old capsule filenames on the ESP.
void fwup_set_esp_mountpoint(char *path);
Override detection of the mountpoint for the ESP directory.
int fwup_get_ux_capsule_info(uint32_t *screen_x_size,
uint32_t *screen_y_size);
Get the dimensions of the screen during boot.
