Changes since 1.16.26.0 for all three firmwares are listed below. This list was obtained from the Release Notes of the Chelsio Unified Wire v3.5.05 release for Linux. T6 Firmware ++++++++++++ ================================================================================ Version : 1.16.63.0 Date : 09/29/2017 ================================================================================ Fixes ----- BASE: - Fixed a fw crash when configured traffic rate limit is less than 10kbps. - Fixed traffic rate limiting for smaller traffic rate value. ETH: - Fixed 40G link failure when interface is toggled. - Fixed adapter crash when interface is toggled during traffic. - Fixed 25G link failure when PEER only supports consortium mode autoneg for 25G. - Fixed 100G optics link failure when cable is plugged in after bringing up the interface. - Enable RS FEC as default if speed is 100G. - Fixed DCBX configuration refresh failure. OFLD - Fixed 0B iWARP ingress read failure. - Fixed iWARP SRQ reuse failure. FOiSCSI: - Fixed vlan interface ping failure. - Fixed target discovery failures. - Fixed mutual chap login failure. ================================================================================ Version : 1.16.59.0 Date : 09/05/2017 ================================================================================ FIXES ----- BASE: - Fixed fw crash caused by MC parity error in SO adapters. - Generate Timer0Int interrupt if fw crashes due to unaligned access error. Host driver must look into PCIE_FW register to see if any fw fatal error has encountered. If PCIE_FW doesn't indicate any error then driver must ignore this interrupt. - Fixed receive buffer threshold settings which was resulting in error frames on receive side. ETH: - Fixed an issue in connection traffic shaping when FLOWC_WR->FW_FLOWC_MNEM_SCHEDCLASS is not received in first WR on the connection. - Fixed link failure when speed is changed from 10G-1G-10G due to incorrect flag check. - Fixed improper LED behaviour for blink test and when traffic is running. - Removed storage of previous fec settings from fw. Driver needs to pass the user settings whenever a new module is plugged in as fw resets these when a module is unplugged. OFLD - OVS offload: TP cache is flushed periodically to get the accuate filters stats (hit count). ENHANCEMENTS ------------ BASE: - Ring backbone feature added. New FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DEV_RING_BACKBONE param type added to query and enable ring backbone support. - VNI support added for filtering. New entry_type FW_VI_MAC_TYPE_EXACTMAC_VNI added to FW_VI_MAC_CMD. - Added new API FW_PARAM_PARAM_DEV_MPSBGMAP to read the priority to buffer group mapping for the ports. - FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DEV_TPCHMAP API added to read the port to channel mapping. - HMA (Host memory access) support added. New FW_HMA_CMD and FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DEV_HMA_SIZE added to query and configure the HMA. It enables the memfree support (256 connections) for iwarp. - PTP support enabled. ETH: - Added consortium mode 50G support. - Added the ability to allow only selected speeds to be advertised during auto negotiation. - Increased port capability from 16 to 32 bits to support more speeds. FW_PARAMS_PARAM_PFVF_PORT_CAPS32 added to query whether fw supports 16 or 32 bit port capability. OFLD: - RDMA Write with immediate support added (iwarp 2.0 feature) - FW_TLS_KEYCTX_TX_WR removed and security key management moved to driver. - 256 offloaded connections support for iwarp on SO adapters. iSCSI: - New param FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DEV_PPOD_EDRAM added for iscsi ppod configuration in EDRAM (performance improvement). FOiSCSI: - iSCSI Command offload target support added. FOFCoE: - FCoE support enabled. ================================================================================ Version : 1.16.43.0 Date : 05/05/2017 ================================================================================ FIXES ----- BASE: - Fixed default DCB mode to AUTO. - Fixed DCBX bugs when AUTO mode is configured in config file. - Fixed an issue where even after removing PFC from switch, PFC wasn't getting reset. - Fixed DDR3/DDR4 ECC errors. - Fixed an FLR issue where FLR completion was going to host before FLR processing is finished in fw. ETH: - Fixed bug in writing multi-bytes using i2c interface. - Fixed the link failure when optical cable is inserted into the QSA module after loading the driver. - Fixed false link up when peer interface was brought down. - Enabling RS FEC by default for 100Gbase-SR4 according to 802.3BJ standard. - Fixed bugs related to negotiated fec based local/peer fec ability and request. - Fixed auto-neg failure with few switches. - T6 Performance improvement fixes. OFLD - Fixed an extra credit issue if FW_RI_TYPE_FINI is delayed in fw due to backpressure. - Added a new queue type FW_IQ_TYPE_VF_CQ to handle the FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DMAQ* commands. queue type will be part of the FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DMAQ_IQ_INTIDX value. Used in guest RDMA (RDMA from VM/VF) usecase. - T6 Crypto Coprocessor mode bug fixes. - T6 Crypto TLS-inline mode bug fixes. ENHANCEMENTS ------------ BASE: - Added new API FW_PARAM_PARAM_DEV_MPSBGMAP to read the priority to buffer group mapping for the ports. ETH: - Added broadcom consortium next page support for 25G CR. This can be enabled using flags=an_brcm option in the t6-config.txt file. - Added spider mode support. - Added support for 10G-BaseT converter sfp+ module. - Added support for additional 25G/100G cables. - Added support to enable/disable auto-neg using ethtool. ================================================================================ Version : 1.16.33.0 Date : 02/24/2017 ================================================================================ Fixes ----- BASE: - Fixed DDR4 uncorrectable errors. ETH: - Enabled link auto negotiation (AN) by default in config file. - Added AN and FEC control api. Host driver and application can enable/disable AN and FEC. ENHANCEMENTS ------------ BASE: - Enabled High priorty filter. - Added T6425 adapter support. ETH: - Added new workrequest ETH_TX_PKTS2_WR (see fw api document for more details). ================================================================================ Version : 1.16.29.0 Date : 01/27/2017 ================================================================================ FIXES ----- BASE: - Set multiple fec values only if AN is enabled in config file and when module is connected. - Fixed intermittent DDR3/4 ECC errors. - max number of ethctrl queue in VF set to 2 (reverted the last change because it causes problem in VF drivers). ETH: - Made devlog more verbose by printing cable information in redable form. - Updated AN settings to work with more 25G/100G switches. - Added support for more SFP28/QSFP28 cables. - Fixed an issue of link going down after few hours of idle time. OFLD: - Fixed an issue in TLS which was causing fw crash on running TLS traffic. FOiSCSI: - Fixed the failure of PXE boot OS install on an iscsi lun. ENHANCEMENTS ------------ OFLD: - Added filtering support for NAT. New WR FW_FILTER2_WR and FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DEV_FILTER2_WR added for the same. - Added RDMA guest mode (mode 3 or RDMA from VF) support. ================================================================================ T5 Firmware ++++++++++++ ================================================================================ Version : 1.16.63.0 Date : 09/29/2017 ================================================================================ Fixes ----- BASE: - Fixed offload memory overcommit in case of SO adapter. ETH: - Fixed DCBX configuration refresh failure. OFLD - Fixed 0B iWARP ingress read failure.
