Method

FwupdPluginDeviceget_backend_parent

Declaration [src]

FuDevice*
fu_device_get_backend_parent (
  FuDevice* self
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Creates a device parent (of the correct type) using the current backend.

NOTE: The backend must implement FuBackendClass->get_device_parent for this method to work — for cases where the plugin has created both parent and child, and used fu_device_add_child(), using fu_device_get_parent() is probably more appropriate.

Available since:

2.0.0

Return value

Returns:	`FuDevice`
	A `FuDevice` or `NULL` if not found or unimplemented.
	The caller of the method takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
