Porting firmware update system from Linux to FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, and DragonFlyBSD
Starts on day 2 (2021-02-07) at 13:20 (Brussels time, UTC+1) in room Bsd (duration 00:30)
Matrix room #bsd:fosdem.org
This presentation will describe the plan of porting the fwupd daemon to BSD
distributions (FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, DragonFlyBSD). It will explain the
challenges connected with the implementation of firmware update systems.
Through the fwupd daemon port, we will extend the functionality of the Linux
Vendor Firmware Service (LVFS) to another family of systems. I will
demonstrate the process of porting the fwupd/LVFS, based on the previous
implementations. Also, I would like to present the fwupd/LVFS chain of trust
and answer any questions the BSD community may have on this topic. I would love
to hear some suggestions and feedback, which we should take into account during
the development process.
