  [ Alberto Milone ]
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py,
    UbuntuDrivers/kerneldetection.py,
    tests/test_ubuntu_drivers.py,
    ubuntu-drivers:
    - Add tests for the -generic-hwe-20.04 flavour and for
      the -oem-20.04 linux flavour.
    - Add detection logic to get the linux metapackage and
      linux-modules for -hwe-20.04 (LP: #1873867).
    - List the modules provider when it is either a dkms package
      or a linux-modules package.
    - Install linux-modules packages when available.
      This makes the NVIDIA drivers work with Secure Boot.

  [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py,
    UbuntuDrivers/kerneldetection.py:
    - Use exact matching in find_reverse_deps() with both
      installed and candidate.

  * tests:
    - Rename ubuntu_drivers.py to test_ubuntu_drivers.py.
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py:
    - Update oem-*-meta packages after we install them.
    - Offer oem-*-meta for installation with "ubuntu-drivers install".
    - Check for 'Modaliases' first when building modalias -> package map.
  * ubuntu-drivers:
    - Add a new 'list-oem' command.
    - Add a --no-oem flag.
    - Allow installing device specific metapackages (LP: #1866035).

  * tests/gpu-manager.py:
    - Do not test against renamed intel modules.
      We don't rename intel modules (such as i915-brw) any more.
      This fixes a test failure now that we have switched to exact
      module matching.

  [ Alberto Milone ]
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py,
    UbuntuDrivers/kerneldetection.py,
    tests/ubuntu_drivers.py:
    - Rely on the linux-image metapackage to find the flavour and
      linux-modules.
      This is for cases such as linux-virtual, which depend on the
      "-generic" flavour.
    - Fix test case where the linux-modules for the ABI shouldn't have
      been available.

  [ Daniel Dadap ]
  * gpu-manager.c:
    - Add helper to remove /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d files.
      remove_prime_outputclass() and remove_offload_serverlayout() are
      basically the same function with different target filenames, so
      add a helper function and make both call into the new helper.
      Also give the new helper (and the original functions) a return
      type and value to inform callers of whether removal was successful.

  [ Alberto Milone ]
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py,
    UbuntuDrivers/kerneldetection.py,
    tests/ubuntu_drivers.py,
    ubuntu-drivers:
    - Provide DKMS fallback for the "install --gpgpu" case
      when no linux-modules-nvidia are available for the driver
      and for a specific kernel (LP: #1843796).
      We have new tests to cover this scenario now.
    - Show provider of kernel modules in list --gpgpu
    - Fix linux metapackage detection.
      This was meant to be driven by the latest kernel version
      But it was only partially implemented.
      Complete the implementation and update the relevant tests.
    - Make sure to install the linux-modules-nvidia package for the
      kernel flavour in use, when passing the --gpgpu argument, so
      that we can deliver a working NVIDIA installation, provided
      that the EULA was accepted.

  [ Jean-Baptiste Lallement ]
  * ubuntu-drivers,
    UbuntuDrivers/detect.py,
    tests/ubuntu_drivers.py:
    - Add a --free-only parameter, so as to allow installing only the
     available free drivers. This is a backport of only the
     ubuntu-drivers-common specific part of LP: #1819207, since
     it is tied to the rest of the changes to the test suite.
    - Add support for testing against a fake archive with free and
      non-free components.
    - Add static code checker.
  * debian/control:
    - Add pycodestyle and pyflake8 to build depends.

  * gpu-manager.c:
    - Drop prime_is_action_on() (now that it isn't on/off any more)
      and update the description.
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py,
    UbuntuDrivers/kerneldetection.py,
    tests/ubuntu_drivers.py,

      Complete the implementation and update the relevant tests.

  [ Daniel Dadap ]
  * gpu-manager.c:
    - Enable power management in NVIDIA on-demand mode:
      The NVIDIA driver can suspend the GPU when it's being used as a
      PRIME render offload source and it isn't actively being used.
      disable_power_management() sets the NVIDIA GPU's power/control
      mode to "on", which prevents the GPU from suspending when it
      might otherwise be possible to do so.
    - Increase string storage on stack for path names. This fixes
      the warnings that gcc emits when building up path names.

  * detect-plugins/cpu-microcode.py, UbuntuDrivers/detect.py:
    - Remove the cpu-microcode.py detection plugin (LP: #1738259).
      Kernel metapackages are going to have a hard dependency on the
      {intel,amd64}-microcode packages to ensure that all bare-metal installs
      benefit from microcode updates. This means that microcode packages are
      no longer "additional drivers" and since they won't be able to be removed
      without uninstalling the kernel metapackages, there is no need for them
      to be exposed by ubuntu-drivers.

  * gpu-manager.{c|py}:
    - Rely on udev for card detection. This helps detecting if a module
      was unloaded or if a card was disabled on a hybrid system.
      In addition to being more accurate (LP: #1485236), this should also
      be much faster on boot (LP: #1307069).
    - Restrict the search for built modules to the dkms directory. This
      improves performance.
  * debian/rules, setup.py, 71-u-d-c-gpu-detection.rules,
    u-d-c-print-pci-ids:
    - Provide a udev rule to detect cards and modules.

      intel/nvidia systems because of a regression in the intel driver
      (LP: #1507676).

  * debian/tests/system: Drop the nvidia package tests; they are now tested
    through autodep8 on every kernel and dkms change, so we don't have to rely
    on this hard to maintain autopkgtest any more. Also drop most other driver
    package tests for the same reason; just keep the "fglrx" test to get a
    full end-to-end test with "ubuntu-drivers".

  * share/hybrid/gpu-manager.c, tests/gpu-manager.py:
    - Use SNA in powersaving mode for pxpress, and keep UXA
      only for performance mode (where it's required). This
      fixes a number of HWE issues (e.g. LP: #1472972).
  * Quirks/quirkreader.py:
    - Set the encoding when opening the file. This fixes a
      crash in Wily.

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * debian/rules: Ensure that $PATH includes /sbin:/usr/sbin, as the tests
    require several programs from that (e. g. modinfo, aptd). Fixes FTBFS due
    to test failures. (LP: #1487223)

    - Revert the previous changes that made us switch from bcmwl to

      seems to require firmware that we cannot include in the Ubuntu
      image because of licensing issues (LP: #1481018).

      mode on AMD+AMD hybrid systems (LP: #1410801).

      as multiple xscreens set in the xorg.conf).
