It’s exciting that with Fwupd 1.9.6+ it’s now possible to update AMD discrete graphics card firmware under Linux rather than having to resort to Windows or other environments. This new Fwupd plug-in works with Navi 3x on recent versions of the Linux kernel where the AMDGPU driver has the necessary interfaces to make the firmware updating happen. Specifically this firmware updating is focused on flashing the graphics card’s Integrated Firmware Image (IFWI).
