Driver-specific callbacks
|
||
|
=========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``pldmfw`` module relies on the device driver for implementing device
|
||
|
specific behavior using the following operations.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``.match_record``
|
||
|
-----------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``.match_record`` operation is used to determine whether a given PLDM
|
||
|
record matches the device being updated. This requires comparing the record
|
||
|
descriptors in the record with information from the device. Many record
|
||
|
descriptors are defined by the PLDM standard, but it is also allowed for
|
||
|
devices to implement their own descriptors.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``.match_record`` operation should return true if a given record matches
|
||
|
the device.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``.send_package_data``
|
||
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``.send_package_data`` operation is used to send the device-specific
|
||
|
package data in a record to the device firmware. If the matching record
|
||
|
provides package data, ``pldmfw`` will call the ``.send_package_data``
|
||
|
function with a pointer to the package data and with the package data
|
||
|
length. The device driver should send this data to firmware.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``.send_component_table``
|
||
|
-------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``.send_component_table`` operation is used to forward component
|
||
|
information to the device. It is called once for each applicable component,
|
||
|
that is, for each component indicated by the matching record. The
|
||
|
device driver should send the component information to the device firmware,
|
||
|
and wait for a response. The provided transfer flag indicates whether this
|
||
|
is the first, last, or a middle component, and is expected to be forwarded
|
||
|
to firmware as part of the component table information. The driver should an
|
||
|
error in the case when the firmware indicates that the component cannot be
|
||
|
updated, or return zero if the component can be updated.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``.flash_component``
|
||
|
--------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``.flash_component`` operation is used to inform the device driver to
|
||
|
flash a given component. The driver must perform any steps necessary to send
|
||
|
the component data to the device.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``.finalize_update``
|
||
|
--------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``.finalize_update`` operation is used by the ``pldmfw`` library in
|
||
|
order to allow the device driver to perform any remaining device specific
|
||
|
logic needed to finish the update.
