Fix issue that causes some SFP+ Modules, for example 1GBase-T modules, not to be detected by the adapter. Issue 62814 / Issue 62796 Fix issue that can cause firmware to not send a notification to the driver when it restarts if traffic is flowing. The symptom of this is that after the adapter is restarted, if the issue occurs the driver will detect a problem and not create interfaces for the adapter PCI functions. v6.0.2.1004 - Feature release First GA support for SFN8522 adapters (using SFC9200 family silicon). v4.7.1.1001 - Update Release Fixes: Issue 59083 SFN7000 series Adapters. Increase warn threshold of regulator die temperature sensor. Issue 58866 SFN7000 series Adapters. Increase warn and fatal thresholds of 0v9 regulator inductor temperature sensor. Issue 52013 Latency. Fix slight latency regression in v4.7.0.1019 firmware that affects packets when the receive data path is operating in store-and-forward mode. v4.7.0.1019 - Feature Release This feature release adds support for SR-IOV on VMware ESXi 5.5 and 6.0. This support requires host net driver version v4.7.0.1029 or later. Features: - Transmit security. Allow outgoing traffic to be filtered against source MAC address of each packet to ensure that PCI Functions may only transmit packets that match the Function's MAC address. - Allow a PCI Physical Function to access the statistics of the Virtual Functions that belong to it. - Support multiple subscribers to the unicast mismatch filter to improve virtualization support. - Privileges. Changes to default privileges to provide promiscuous and change MAC privileges by default. This allows bonding to be used without requiring additional configuration with sfboot to enable insecure-filters. - Receive Data Path. Configurable event merging timeout and support to allow receive queues to be configured for store-and-forward-only operation. Fixes: Issue 58407 OpenOnload. Fix issue that can cause received TCP packets to be delivered to the wrong recipient i.e the host net driver rather than OpenOnload. The problem can occur after specific combinations of filter operations and results in the packet being matched against the MAC filter used by the host net driver rather than a specific IP filter used by OpenOnload. Issue 56742 PTP. Improve PTP statistics counters such that separate counters of transmitted PTP packets are maintained for each network port. Issue 56591 / Issue 56298 SR-IOV with Multicast. Fix issue that can cause missing deliveries of VLAN-tagged multicast traffic where there are multiple recipients. This is most likely to be observed in an virtualized environment where OpenOnload is used and VLAN-tagged multicast traffic is being received by more than one recipient. A consequence of this issue is that a firmware assertion and reboot can occur when the affected filter is removed. Issue 54253 Receive Filters. Relax security restrictions for insertion of filters specifying all ethernet packets containing IP packets with a specific IP protocol number (i.e. not a specific IP source/destination address filter) to allow any PCI Function to use this filter type. Issue 53701 OpenOnloading and Bonded Interfaces. Relax restrictions to allow the host to change a PCI Function's MAC address when there are queues allocated and/or filters installed. Issue 50947 SFN7042Q and SFN7004F. Fix issue where some of the PCI Functions can sometimes fail to notify the associated host driver that the adapter has been rebooted. Issue 49819 RHEL7 with UEFI Bootrom. Provide firmware support to fix issue that can cause the in-distro host net driver to fail to load after a warm reboot where the UEFI driver is enabled. Note that this change provides firmware support for the fix but a driver fix is also required. Issue 46197 Packed-Stream Firmware Variant. Allow 4096 length receive queues to be used for non-packed-stream VIs when the adapter is configured to use the Packed-Stream firmware variant. Previously this was limited to 2048. v4.6.5.1002 - Update Release Fixes: Issue 55697 Manufacturing Test. Improve robustness of firmware logging during manufacturing testing. Issue 55270 SR-IOV / Software VLANs on SFN7x42Q adapters. Fix issue that can cause VLAN tagged traffic transmitted by the host via an unprivileged PCI Function to be dropped. v4.6.3.1001 - Update Release Fixes: Issue 55248 SR-IOV / Software VLANs. Fix issue that can cause VLAN-tagged packets received from the network to have the VLAN tag incorrectly stripped before the packet is delivered to the host. Issue 55270 SR-IOV / Software VLANs. Fix issue that can cause VLAN tagged traffic transmitted by the host via an unprivileged PCI Function to be dropped. v4.6.2.1000 - Update Release Fixes: Issue 54780 SR-IOV / Hardware Loopback. Fix issue that can cause traffic directed to the hardware loopback path to be dropped when the adapter is configured in 2 port mode on SFN7x42Q/SFN7xx4F and 1 port mode on SFN7xx2F. v4.6.1.1001 - Feature Release Features: Port Modes: This release adds support for new port modes in order to give increased performance in specific scenarios and also improves the performance of the existing 2x40G port mode on SFN7x42Q adapters. The new port modes halve the number of active ports allowing more adapter resources to be dedicated to the ports in use. For example, with a SFN7x42Q adapter in 2x40G mode, this allows improved transmit throughput and more resilience to periods of reduced PCIe bandwidth on the receive path. The new port modes have the following features: - SFN7xx2F supports new port mode 1x10G. - SFN7x42Q and SFN7xx4F supports new port mode 2x10G. - A pair for transmit engines are used for each active port. - The receive buffering for each active port is doubled. - The size of the transmit and receive descriptor caches are doubled. Packet Memory: This release includes improved use of internal buffers. When the adapter is operating in the low-latency or packed-stream firmware variant, the receive buffering is increased by reallocating buffers reserved for the hardware loopback path to the receive datapath. General: - SFN7xx4F: This release adds support for the quad SFP+ adapters SFN7124F and SFN7004F. - SR-IOV transmit security: Allow outgoing traffic to be filtered against source MAC address of each packet to ensure that Functions may only transmit packets that match the Function MAC address. - RSS: New RSS hash modes to allow hashing on source IP and port only and destination IP and port only. Fixes: Issue 53547 PCIe: Fix issue observed with host systems using PLX PCIe chipsets (for example Dell FC630). The issue can cause the PCIe link to fail to train after a warm reboot. Issue 51231 Packet Memory: Improve packet memory usage. Allocate packet memory buffers according to the selected firmware variant and number of ports configured to provide more buffering when in low-latency/packed-stream firmware and when operating in 2x 40G mode on a SFN7x42Q adapter. Issue 47653 HP570M/HP570FLB: Fix issue with Smash/CLP firmware support that was incompatible with SR-IOV functionality. Issue 45373 HP570FLB: Fix issue where polarity of the Network link and activity GPIO outputs was inverted. Issue 33740 / SF-114681-KI Fix issue with adapter hardware loopback management that can prevent the host driver from unloading cleanly. v4.5.0.1007 - Feature Release Features: This release adds support for filtering against IP protocol and Ethertype and adds OCSD support for HP branded 7000 series adapters. Fixes: Issue 50829 Filter engine: Fix issue that can cause rejection of a Multicast filter insertion where an explicit loopback is requested. Issue 45449 Advertise asymmetric pause on SFP+. Issue 52806 Expansion ROM: Increased PCIe Expansion ROM BAR size to accommodate larger combined option ROM / UEFI driver. Issue 48989 / SF-114680-KI Filter engine: fix issue that can cause filter look ups to slow down after a large number of filter insertions and removals. Issue 45449 Advertise asymmetric pause on SFP+. v4.4.2.1011 - Feature Release Features: This releases adds support for NIC partitioning with VLANs as part of the SR-IOV functionality and also includes support for SR-IOV Proxied Network Access Control. SR-IOV: - Support to proxy MCDI requests to the host driver using a privileged PCI function. Provides a mechanism to allow the host driver to configure and deconfigure proxying on a selected set of MCDI requests. On receipt of a proxied request the driver can either authorize, decline or complete the request on behalf of the requesting PCI function. - Support cascaded multicast filter support. Allows all recipients to receive multicast traffic regardless of the filter type used (multicast-all, mac-multicast, ip-multicast). For example, previously, subscribers to a MAC multicast filter would not receive traffic if there was also an equivalent IP multicast filter installed. This previously restricted how OpenOnload could be used in a virtualization environment. - Add support for OpenOnload secure filters for multi-function/virtualization environments. Allows IP filters to be qualified with the MAC address of the associated PCI function. - Additional privilege groups to allow more fine-grained control of filter insertion privileges. New privilege groups for different types of traffic (unicast, multicast, broadcast, multicast-all, promiscuous) and a new group mac-spoofing (previously provide via the insecure-filters privilege group. General: - Full support for QSA adapters Fixes: Issue 50651 Increase TX amplitude when extra de-emphasis is applied for longer SFP+/QSFP+ cable lengths. Issue 49975 Reduce number of statistics counters in ultra-low latency firmware variant to guarantee any packet drops are counted at all packet rates. Issue 48989 Reconfiguration of the receive datapath packet memory while traffic is passing can cause a resource leakage of packet memory buffers which can eventually lead to the receive datapath failing. Avoid reconfiguring the receive datapath packet memory when not necessary. Issue 48460 1GBASE-X: Allow the user to control Auto-Negotiation via ethtool to allow 1G taps to be used where only the RX is connected. Issue 47489 PTP: Fix compatibility issue with recent drivers that causes the clock step code to apply an offset of zero ns each time that the clock frequency is adjusted. Issue 46991 SFN7142Q: Fix issue that can cause the datapath of the slave core to fail to initialise correctly when the adapter is rebooted while traffic is passing. Issue 45987 Fix issue in power supply sensor configuration that can cause CRCs on network ports on certain switch/cable combinations (e.g. IBM G8264). v4.2.2.1003 - Update release Features: - Support configurable buffer size for the packed stream firmware variant.
