[RFC 3/3] efi: add capsule update capability via sysfs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: James Bottomley <JBottomley@xxxxxxxx>

The firmware update should be applied simply by doing

cat fw_file > /sys/firmware/capsule/update

With a properly formatted fw_file.  Any error will be returned on close of
stdout.  util-linux returns errors correctly from closing stdout, but firmware
shippers should check whatever utilities package they use correctly captures
the error return on close.
