NAME

fwupdtool â standalone firmware update utility

SYNOPSIS

fwupdtool [CMD]

DESCRIPTION

This tool allows an administrator to use fwupd plugins directly without using the daemon process, which may be faster or easier to use when creating or debugging specific plugins. For most end-users, fwupdmgr is a more suitable program to use in almost all cases.

Additionally fwupdtool can be used to convert firmware from various different formats, or to modify the images contained inside the container firmware file. For example, you can convert DFU or Intel HEX firmware into the vendor-specific format.

OPTIONS

The fwupdtool command takes various options depending on the action. Run fwupdtool --help for the full list. Note that some runtimes failures can be ignored using --force.

EXIT STATUS

Commands that successfully execute will return â0â, with generic failure as â1â.

There are also several other exit codes used: A return code of â2â is used for commands that have no actions but were successfully executed, and â3â is used when a resource was not found.

BUGS
