+ <listitem><para>The hardware ID device table (the <literal>.hwids</literal> section). The argument is a
+ path to a directory with JSON HWID device description files. Each file needs to contain a single JSON object with a <literal>name</literal>, <literal>compatible</literal> and <literal>hwids</literal> keys. The <literal>name</literal> and <literal>compatible</literal> keys must have string values and the <literal>hwids</literal> key must have a list of strings as value, where the strings must be valid UUIDs that represent CHIDs/HWIDs.
+ Example:
+ <programlisting><xi:include href="ukify_hwid.json.example" parse="text" /></programlisting>
+ Here <literal>Example Laptop 16 Gen 7</literal> is the device <literal>name</literal> (as defined by the manufacturer),
+ <literal>example,laptop-16-g7</literal> is the <literal>compatible</literal> (as defined by the kernel) and <literal>hwids</literal>
+ is an array of CHIDs/HWIDs (extracted i.e. from <command>fwupdtool hwids</command> output).
+ If not specified, the section will not be present. It is recommended to specify this parameter if automatically
+ selectable DeviceTrees are to be used.
