Capsule GUIDs and LVFS

[Ilias Apalodimas]

Hi,

Richard maintains LVFS & fwupd, commonly used for firmware upgrades.
We recently discussed the U-Boot status and supported devices since
fwupd supports capsule updates.
In order to be able to support capsule updates via LVFS manufacturers
should bind their GUIDs to their devices. Any ODM/OEM creating a board
based on the original device must use his own
GUIID to avoid confusion. If not we would end up with different
devices reusing the same GUIDs and upgrading their firmware with a
different one.

Looking at the defined GUIDS for capsule updates defined in board
support files I found the following

Richard, the following GUIDs should at least issue a warning in LVFS
since they only work for QEMU & Sandbox internally.
Sandbox SANDBOX_UBOOT_IMAGE_GUID 09d7cf52-0720-4710-91d1-08469b7fe9c8
Sandbox SANDBOX_UBOOT_ENV_IMAGE 5a7021f5-fef2-48b4-aaba-832e777418c0
Sandbox SANDBOX_FIT_IMAGE_GUID 3673b45d-6a7c-46f3-9e60-adabb03f7937
QEMU QEMU_ARM_UBOOT_IMAGE_GUID f885b085-99f8-45af-847d-d514107a4a2c
QEMU QEMU_ARM64_UBOOT_IMAGE 058b7d83-50d5-4c47-a195-60d86ad341c4

I've cc'ed all the people I could find in board specific MAINTAINER files.
Can you respond to Richard with the proper company name & board name
so we can bind the following GUIDs to a vendor properly?
Richard any guidance on how this should be done properly is
appreciated, since I am not too aware of LVFS internals.

This seems to use the same GUID for multiple device variants. This
needs to be fixed
