SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTEXT-AWARE FIRMWARE UPDATE

An information handling system may include a power subsystem for supplying electrical energy to components of the information handling system, a power delivery interface configured to enable the power subsystem to draw power from a device external to the information handling system and communicatively coupled to the power delivery interface, a processor communicatively coupled to the power delivery interface, and a software service embodied in non-transitory computer-readable media and configured to, when read and executed by the processor, detect a configuration and context of the information handling system and in response to a request to perform a firmware update to the device, orchestrate power events of the information handling system and installation of the firmware update to the device based on the configuration and the context.
