Introduction
This plugin is used to detach the Thelio IO device to DFU mode.
To switch to this mode 1
has to be written to the bootloader
file
in sysfs.
GUID Generation
These devices use the standard USB DeviceInstanceId values, e.g.
USB\VID_1209&PID_1776&REV_0001
Update Behavior
The device usually presents in runtime mode, but on detach re-enumerates with a
different USB VID and PID in DFU mode. The device is then handled by the dfu
plugin.
On DFU attach the device again re-enumerates back to the runtime mode.
For this reason the REPLUG_MATCH_GUID
internal device flag is used so that
the bootloader and runtime modes are treated as the same device.
Vendor ID Security
The vendor ID is set from the USB vendor, in this instance set to USB:0x1209
External Interface Access
This plugin requires read/write access to /dev/bus/usb
.
