However, even though you\u2019ll be able to update your Raspberry Pi 5\u2019s firmware with fwupd, this support is marked as \u201cunofficial\u201d in this release.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p>This release also adds support for updating the firmware on the Framework SD Expansion Card, adds a PCB tag in the usi-dock GUID to distinguish different revisions, adds an explicit hidraw permission to the fwupd.service to improve support for multiple devices, and adds support for always loading the flashrom plugin when using the open-source Coreboot bootloader.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p>In addition, fwupd is now explicit with the rts54hub detach retry delay to fix support for the Acer D501 USB Type-C dock, increases the cros_ec acquiesce delay to manage additional reboots, sets the rts54hub version in more cases, and uses the bootloader build-timestamp as the fallback HWID BIOS version.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;`<\/p>\n<div>\n<p><p>On top of that, fwupd 1.9.22 fixes a critical warning if a device returns unexpected data from DFU upload, fixes a critical warning if the DMI manufacturer is an empty string, fixes several integer overflows from Coverity, fixes the Blackbird and Talos II baseboard details, and fixes a transient version number issue after flashing Wacom USB devices.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p>Last but not least, the new fwupd release speeds up the daemon self-tests by ~60%, it\u2019s more careful when setting thelio-io version strings, only accepts valid ASCII cabinet filenames, only requires the udevdir when enabling gudev support, and only shows one PixArt receiver device per physical device.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p>Check out the release notes on the <em><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/fwupd\/fwupd\/releases\/tag\/1.9.22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">project\u2019s GitHub page<\/a><\/em> for more details about the changes included in fwupd 1.9.22, which is available for download as a source tarball from the same location.
