Description [src]

Parses a firmware, typically breaking the firmware into images.

Available since: 2.0.1

Parameters

fw

Type: GBytes

Firmware blob.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.

offset

Type: gsize

Start offset, useful for ignoring a bootloader.

flags

Type: FwupdInstallFlags

Install flags, e.g. FWUPD_INSTALL_FLAG_FORCE.

error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.

If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.

The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the method if there are no errors.

In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Return value

Type: gboolean

TRUE for success.
