Hi all,
I've just deployed a new version of the LVFS that raises the allowed
size of uploads to 1GB. A few devices (such as 5G modems) have
firmwares larger than 100Mb and we needed to move most of the upload
actions to the celery runners. Now we've done this, uploading large
firmwares will now complete much faster but will not be available to
edit for a few minutes while all the compressing and signing happens
asynchronously. The only change to the UI is that there's now a
"Previous Uploads" section in the "Upload Firmware" page, but in most
cases this can just be ignored as the upload process will complete in
a few seconds anyway. Any failed uploads will be deleted after 30
days. There is a screenshot on
https://gitlab.com/fwupd/lvfs-website/-/merge_requests/1099 for the
curious.
Uploads using the API are completely unchanged, and the action is
completed synchronously as before. Any problems please let me know.
Richard.
