Hi All, The existing BIOS-DUP's will not work on latest kernel, which has CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER=n configured in Kernel config by default which is not expected by the dell_rbu.
We have made a changes in BIOS-Dell Update Package so that BIOS-DUP will pick the payload from the /lib/firmware/ path & update the BIOS even when CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER=n is configured . We have tested this patch http://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg1755247.html with latest BIOS Dell Update Package (which has new implementation for the BIOS update i.e, copying the BIOS payload in /lib/firmware path & dell_rbu picks the payload from the same path) & with stable upstream kernel-3.14.5 & we don't see any negative effects/errors for dell_rbu. All the Test results are positive.
