摘要: A firmware update system is described that collectively handles updates for hardware resources of a computing device. The may be configured to handle in consistent manner across different platforms/architectures. data structure defined associate each updateable resource with corresponding identifier enumerate the system. reference produce representations individual provide an operating level abstraction through which detection, analysis, acquisition, deployment, installation, and tracking managed. Using representations, operates discover available enumerated resources, match appropriate initiate installation updates.
