  -     *The following fixes were incorporated in this version:**
      
        * SAS drive LED behavior was corrected to align with the Smart Array specification, specifically: 
          * The Activity LED of a sanitize erase drive now turns ON when connected.
      
          * The Array present LED now turns ON for the SAS drive.
      
          * The Activity LED now blinks on all drives during a SAS drive rebuild.
      
        * The Serial Output Buffer (SOB) has a fixed sized for stored entries. Now, when the buffer is full, the oldest entries are cleared or committed to persistent storage (if available). For this reason, subsequent requests to read the SOB only retrieves new entries that have been logged since the last successful request to read the SOB.
      
        * The drive activity LED has been changed to a function as described in the installation and maintenance guide.
      
        * The reboot flag was changed to issue a hard reset, which enables the service delivery subsystem (ZPSDS) information be shared across (expanded across) the internal expanders to all devices attached.
      
        * The drive activity LED on the SAS disk drives was changed to support the ACTIVE_LOW signal state. The ACTIVE_LOW signal state is the default operation state for most drives.
      
        * The SCSI WRITE BUFFER MODE was changed from activate to soft reset. This change improves the host ability to detect and report whether the enclosure is going to perform a disruptive or non-disruptive activation after a firmware upgrade.
      
        * With I/O module firmware v0105 and PQI firmware 2.02 , the slot power cycle issue has been resolved by changing the power cycle SES request to return a failure when a partner slot is not connected.

changelog:
  -     *The following fixes were incorporated in this version:**
      
        * In STD INQUIRY RESPONSE, the ErrM bit was always being set. The ErrM bit indicates that the enclosure firmware detects a mismatch in any of its package versions and the firmware version of a FRU component. The issue was due to an incorrect version of PSU firmware being included and that has been fixed.
      
        * After installing the latest firmware on the enclosure I/O modules, the SES targets could not be discovered on the host. The virtual phy bit in SMP DISCOVER RESPONSE, which is used by the Microchip smartpqi HBA, was det for the virtual phy of the I/O module.

      In extremely rare cases, the following QLogic Fibre Channel (FC) Host Bus
      Adapters (HBAs), SN1100Q, SN1600Q and 5830c may cause the host Operating
      System (OS) to stop. Subsequent OS reboot may reveal some filesystem data is
      unavailable or inconsistent. Out of an abundance of caution, HPE updated the
      Firmware/BIOS/UEFI (Boot Image) packages for these adapters to eliminate
      possible exposure to this extremely rare but critical issue.

  -     *Fixed the following:**
      
      In extremely rare cases, the following QLogic Fibre Channel (FC) Host Bus
      Adapters (HBAs), SN1100Q, SN1600Q and SN1610Q may cause the host Operating
      System (OS) to stop. Subsequent OS reboot may reveal some filesystem data is
      unavailable or inconsistent. Out of an abundance of caution, HPE updated the
      Firmware/BIOS/UEFI (Boot Image) packages for these adapters to eliminate
      possible exposure to this extremely rare but critical issue.

      and Superdome Flex Host Bus Adapters (HBA) - Certain Fibre Channel HBA
      Firmware May Cause the Operating System to Halt and Potentially Compromise

changelog:
  -     Fixed the following behavior:
      
      Temperature Misreading: the adapter was reading incorrect reading of the
      temperature on the HPE SN1610Q 32Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus adapter's Small
      Form-factor Pluggable. The symptom would result in a temperature spike and
      potentially reset the system

changelog:
  -     *Fixes:**
      
        * Fixed improper handling of sequential connect packets.
        * On rare occasions, after PXE boot, the port speed came up as SDR instead of a higher speed.
        * On very rare occasions, a false alarm thermal indication was reported when HP mezz cards were rebooted.
        * On very rare occasions, firmware wrongly reported board over-temperature warning.
        * destroy-DCT command handling may experience delays while the DCT port is down.
        * Fixed an issue causing diagnostic counters VS-MAD page offset to start at a wrong address.

changelog:
  -     *The following issues are fixed in firmware version 10.16.1006:**
      
        * Fixed an issue causing single port devices to query and write Physical Port TLVs to Port 2.
        * Fixed an issue which caused the device to hang when resetting qkey/pkey violation counter via port_info mad.
        * Improved RDMA READ bandwidth under packet lost scenario.
        * If the PF driver or the tool (e.g. ethtool) use PAOS DOWN command (e.g. by ifconfig down or ip link set down), loopback traffic is blocked for all functions on this port (PF<->VFs / VF<->VF)  
      In Multihost loopback, the traffic will be blocked once the firmware receives
      the PAOS down command from all PFs. However, the loopback traffic will not be
      blocked when the port is down due to the physical link (for example: cable
      plugged out, switch port down).
      
        * Fixed an issue which prevented QP permission for reserve lkey to be passed to the memop machine.
        * Fixed a MLX QP SL mismatch handling which 10.12.0780 occurred when the SL in the WQE was different than the SL in the QP.
        * Fixed wrongly implementation of SM SL2VL configuration.
        * Fixed a DC re-connect flow which in some cases 10.12.0780 sent bad completion.
        * Fixed a DC performance issue; separated DCRs 10.12.0780 SQ from the DCI SQs.
        * Fixed an issue causing the firmware to hang 10.12.0780 when running ibdiagnet. The received DiagData  
      MAD included the following values:  
       Clear_all = 1  
       PageNum = 0  
       Port_select = 0  
      To prevent the firmware from hanging, a port check was added to Set() as well.
      
        * Hardware fatal error used to occur when running "ibdump".
        * FDR10 incorrect speed indication was reported due to the usage of a translation function from the hardware speed to the PRM speed twice.
        * Invalid data was returned by EyeOpening MAD.

  -     *The following issues are fixed in firmware version 10.16.1058****:**
      
        * Fixed an issue which caused system fail when enabled SR-IOV.
        * Fixed a rare issue which caused the RX to hang when triggered the SRQ limit event.
        * Fixed an issue which occasionally caused the RX traffic to hang in DC when received a PCI error on WQE fetch.
        * Fixed an issue which caused the mlxconfig configuration of VF_LOG_BAR_SIZE to be ignored and to be set to 5 (32MB).
        * Fixed an EEH error from PCI which caused firmware to hang.
        * Fixed an issues which occasionally caused the driver to hang during unload on some VLs when configuring the SM with a VL weight 0 and running traffic on it.
        * Fixed a rare case which caused an assert reported to the driver when the DC transport was enabled in the following cases: retransmission occurred and the RX received the same packet twice
        * Fixed an issue which caused the HCA to hang when enabled /disabled the VFs vports when the VFs GUIDs configuration were overloaded in the steering table.
      
      **The following issues are fixed in firmware version 10.16.1038****:**

        * Fixed an issue which caused the device to hang when resetting qkey/pkey violation counter via port_info mad.
        * Improved RDMA READ bandwidth under packet lost scenario.
        * If the PF driver or the tool (e.g. ethtool) use PAOS DOWN command (e.g. by ifconfig down or ip link set down), loopback traffic is blocked for all functions on this port (PF<->VFs / VF<->VF)  
      In Multihost loopback, the traffic will be blocked once the firmware receives
      the PAOS down command from all PFs. However, the loopback traffic will not be
      blocked when the port is down due to the physical link (for example: cable
      plugged out, switch port down).
      
        * Fixed an issue which prevented QP permission for reserve lkey to be passed to the memop machine.

        * Fixed improper handling of sequential connect packets.
        * On rare occasions, after PXE boot, the port speed came up as SDR instead of a higher speed.
        * On very rare occasions, firmware wrongly reported board over-temperature warning.
        * destroy-DCT command handling may experience delays while the DCT port is down.
        * Fixed an issue causing diagnostic counters VS-MAD page offset to start at a wrong address.
        * Fixed stability issue in the event of no-local-DC-resources.

        * **[Documentation fix in PRM v2.01, no changes to the firmware code.]**  
      Port asynchronous events documentation are different from the PRM. All port
      events have a type value of 0x9.  
      The following subtype values are used for the following events:  
       link down=0x1  
       link up=0x4  
       link initialized=0x5  
       lid change=0x6

        * Alternate Path Migration (APM) triggers only a single affiliated asynchronous error event in the case of a path migration failure.
        * Using a min_rnr_nak value of 0x5 will cause failures when creating reliable connection (RC) QPs.
        * On rare occasions DC Initiator completions might be lost.
        * The following signature rules are not supported (Numbering based on "signature rules table" in PRM):  
       Rule #12: T10 DIF  
       Rule #13: T10 DIF CS  
       Rule #14 T10 DIF CS
      
        * VL arbitration configuration does not ensure minimum bandwidth for VL as configured.
        * On very rare occasions, a false firmware "hanged" report is printed in the dmesg.
        * CQ buffer resize not supported.
        * When connecting to InfiniScale family switches and non-Mellanox InfiniBand switches DDR and QDR speeds may show line errors and in some cases might downgrade to SDR speed.

        * Modifying VMQoS rate limiter parameters during traffic caused transmission failure.
        * Aligned the default tuning type in PHY TEST MODE to the device protocol.
        * When a device is operating in Safe Mode state, and the user issues the mlxfwreset command, the device might fail to come-up correctly after the reset.  
      Note: Do not run mlxfwreset when operating in a Safe Mode state.
      
        * Fixed an issue related to PCIe "Surprise link down" event reporting capability.
        * Fixed an issue that resulted in the link partner experiencing false active linkup when plugging in a base-T cable to a closed port.
      
      **Fixes in version** **12.24.1000:**
      
        * Fixed an issue that caused the max_qp_retry_freq_exceeded counter (including a CQE with error syndrome 0x97, and the QP moving to error state) to be activated only after exceeding the NIC Vport context max_qp_retry_limit, and not when reaching it.

      **Changes and New features in firmware version 12.26.1040 and 16.26.1040:**
      
        * Enabled the firmware by using the ICMD commands to deal with diagnostic counters similar to cmdif. They can be called via the vsec space. The counters' values are returned only via the tracer. The ICMD Query Caps indicate support and expose the list of the supported counters.
        * User Context Object (DEVX) is a containerized sandbox per user, to access PRM command securely by using General Object commands, UMEM and UCTX contexts. The allowed functionalities of this capability depend on the user permissions.  
      The following functionalities are still managed by the Kernel:
      
          * Resource cleaning
          * UCTX stamping
          * Blocking the physical address and IRQ from these UCTX
        * Added support for reporting the supported affiliated and unaffiliated asynchronous events to DEVX users through the command interface.
        * Zero-Touch-RoCE counters are now available to the user for debuggability purposes when using the Zero-Touch-RoCE feature.
        * This release contains important reliability improvements and security hardening enhancements. Mellanox recommends upgrading your device firmware to this release to improve the device firmware security and reliability.
      
      **Changes and New features in firmware version 16.26.1040:**
      
        * Added support for the following features: 
          * Address Translation Service (ATS) support for MKEY and UMEM.
          * Exposing the Vital Product Data (VPD) on Virtual Function (VF).
          * Hairpin Drop Counter.
          * Hairpin and TM RNDV QPs to work with DevX.
          * Creating software managed steering tables in eSwitch/Forwarding Table (FDB).

        * IPoIB could not to function when there were Dynamically Connected Transport (DC) CNAK Queue Pairs (QPs) active.
        * On rare occasions, when firmware coalesce Host stuck events occur, a async event might be delayed to be reported, and not be triggered until the next time the PCIe hangs on one of the hosts.
        * Renamed the GMP Mellanox Vendor Specific External Capability mask enum from IsDiagnosticCountersSupported to IsDiagnosticDataSupported.
        * Fixed an issue that caused a function to misbehave when a PCIe Transaction Layer Packet (TLP) was set with a poisoned indication.

        * Renamed the GMP Mellanox Vendor Specific External Capability mask enum from IsDiagnosticCountersSupported to IsDiagnosticDataSupported.
        * Stability issues with RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) retransmissions under stress were affecting Zero-Touch-RoCE.
        * Fixed an issue that caused a function to misbehave when a PCIe Transaction Layer Packet (TLP) was set with a poisoned indication.
        * Large number of packets dropped when running Jumbo frames with TTL rewrite.
        * Limited the number of the elements in the Quality of Service (QoS) tree 2K.  
      Note: Creating more than 250 Vport_tc for every TC is not allowed.
      
        * Queue Pair (QP) flow query was always taking port 1, Firmware will now reply the proper port, 1 or 2, for the dual port RoCE net device.
        * The nack counters constantly reported as "0".
        * In a rare scenario when the driver is executing the "2err" command and the QP is in Send Queue (SQ) drain state, the firmware might post event of broken Work Queue (WQ) instead of sending error Completion Queue Element (CQEs) on all the Work Queue Entry (WQEs).

changelog:
  -     *Firmware for the following devices are updated to 12.27.1016:**
      
      825110-B21 (HPE InfiniBand EDR/Ethernet 100Gb 1-port 840QSFP28 Adapter)  
      825111-B21 (HPE InfiniBand EDR/Ethernet 100Gb 2-port 840QSFP28 Adapter)
      
      **Firmware for the following devices are updated to 16.27.1016:**
      
      879482-B21 (HPE InfiniBand FDR/Ethernet 40/50Gb 2-port 547FLR-QSFP Adapter)  
      872726-B21 (HPE InfiniBand EDR/Ethernet 100Gb 2-port 841QSFP28 Adapter)
      
      **Changes and New Features in firmware version 12.27.1016 and 16.27.1016:**
      
        * RoCE Selective Repeat introduces a new QP retransmission mode in RoCE: recovery from packet drop by resending the dropped packet and not only all the PSN window (Go-Back-N protocol),  
      This new capability comes with the following limitations:
      
          * Selective repeat cannot be used with AR
          * Does not work with signature (T10-DIF)
          * Does not work with Tag Matching enabled
        * Allows BMC to query and control NIC over RedFish API (https://www.dmtf.org/standards/redfish). Currently, the NIC supports reading data and setting basic Ethernet and InfiniBand parameters.
        * Enables matching of source_vhca_port in the FDB flow for ECMP hardware offload on a single FDB.
        * Added support for dumping hardware steering entries (raw data) using the resource dump API.
        * The eth_link_down_counter now counts logical link downs as well.
      
      **Changes and New Features in firmware version 16.27.1016:**
      
        * Removed power consumption limitation. This new capability removes the necessity to disable the port due to insufficient power. When this feature is enabled, an event will be sent on every transition between the following power states: 
          * Power limit is not advertised
          * Sufficient power detected
          * Insufficient power detected
        * Firmware can be now updated as well as DB strings while performing Live Firmware Patch.
        * Enables the device to generate events that will notify the user about any resource dumps updates. The resource dump owner (PF/ECPF) will be notified on the VF command failures by events that will contain the needed information to call the resource_dump command. The device will dump the resource in the standard resource dump sequence.
        * Added support for the following features: 
          * RSS based on inner headers of GTP-U tunneled packets.
          * Relaxed ordering read when using the create_mkey flag.  
      Note: This capability is not supported when using Multi-Host cards and when in
      PCIe-Switch  
      mode.


author: HP Linux Development <Linux_SWdeliverables@external.groups.hpe.com> 1.0.8
changelog:
  -     *Fixes submitted in version 12.27.1016:**
      
        * ZTR counters query was always set to return 0.
        * The adapter card was prevented from going into the bypass mode when the BMC disabled the hardware arbitration.
        * Performance degradation and a high packet drop occurred when SRIOV was enabled and packets went through the FDB default behaviour.
        * Due to the string DB not being updated after Live-Patch, the tracer could not function after Live-Patch.
        * Fixed a rare issue that caused other active functions to receive a malformed CQE during driver (PF or VF) unload or FLR flows.
        * Firmware error was observed when FLR occurred at the same time as the teardown. As a result, the teardown flow took a lock, and never released it because it was being aborted by an FLR.
      
      **Fixes submitted in version 16.27.1016:**
      
        * Fixed an issue that caused the device to perform DMA into memory already returned to the OS during the transition between the pre-boot driver to the OS driver.
        * Out-of-range issue when reading or writing the q_counters.
        * Fixed an issue that in Multi-Host adapter cards that resulted in wrong handling of PERST on auxiliary links.
        * ZTR counters query was always set to return 0.
        * The adapter card was prevented from going into the bypass mode when the BMC disabled the hardware arbitration.
        * A non-standard tool was required to perform the first LFWP patching when used with the GA firmware version.
        * Updated the OOOSLMask behaviour. Firmware now will apply OOOSLMask even if it is set to zero (OOOSLMask = 0).
        * Redundant page consumption in the init_hca.
        * The sw_reset option was not supported when ATS was enabled.
        * When ESWITCH_IPV4_TTL_MODIFY_ENABLE configuration was enabled in mlxconfig, there was performance degradation in small packet sizes.
        * Due to the string DB not being updated after Live-Patch, the tracer could not function after Live-Patch.
        * Fixed a rare issue that caused other active functions to receive a malformed CQE during driver (PF or VF) unload or FLR flows.
        * The PCI link was not getting established when the firmware was corrupted.
        * FW assert was triggerred and resulted in a wrong deallocation of a resource when Packet Pacing was enabled, and a QP was being destroyed.
        * Firmware error was observed when FLR occurred at the same time as the teardown. As a result, the teardown flow took a lock, and never released it because it was being aborted by an FLR.

changelog:
  -     *Following issues have been fixed in firmware version 16.27.2008:**
      
        * Although the effective BER (after FEC) was expected to meet the design targets (e.g. 10e-14 or lower), occasionally it was higher.
        * High BER occured when connecting cables of type 0.5/1m DAC to an HDR speed.
        * The PCIe Tx parameters did not load correctly when the speed was changed after the PCIe link was disabled.
        * The desched_threshold field did not work properly.
        * The "roce_adp_retrans" counter was presenting the values of the "local_ack_timeout_err" counter.
        * If Relaxed Ordering was disabled by running the "setpci" command, it would not be functional even after re-enabling it by running the "setpci" command again.
      
      **Following issues have been fixed in firmware version 12.27.4000:**
      
        * The device hung while running the sw reset flow under heavy stress and with many open resources.
        * Low PXE performance observerd while using the VSC to trigger the send_ring_doorbells.
        * IPoIB and DC would not work together.

changelog:
  -     *Following issues have been fixed in firmware version 16.29.1016:**
      
        * An issue that prevented VXLAN packets with svlan/ cvlan tag from being matched.
        * An issue that caused the eth_wqe_too_small counter to count ODP (On-Demand Paging) page faults.
        * When MKEY_BY_NAME was enabled by NVCONFIG and a large number of VFs are configured, VM restart (VF/PF FLR) will take longer than when MKEY_BY_NAME is disabled.
        * An issue that resulted in low performance after enabling the RoCE Accelerator capability. Note: The fix is available when all ports are set as Ethernet. 
        * On rare cases, a fatal error related to errors from the PCI transport layer might be reported during FLR.
        * The chassis manager calculation for Multi-Host and Socket-Direct adapter cards to allow running NC-SI commands by the chassis manager BMC. Now the chassis manager is count as BMC with index 0, regardless of how many BMC there are.
        * An issue that caused the device to go to down IRISC as one of the firmware semaphores could not be released when a speed change or port state change was triggered. 
      
      **Following issues have been fixed in firmware version 12.28.1002:**
      
        * An issue that caused the DCR to be destroyed before the retry option managed to work when the retry timeout is too big. In this case the DCR' time-to-live was increased, and the maximum retry timeout was decreased.
        * Increased PHY power consumption limit to 1.5w.
        * An issue that caused PortCounters.PortRcvErr / PPCNT.infiniband_counters.PortRcvErr not to report port icrc errors.

        * Steering DP hash flow groups.
        * A new counter per vPort that counts the number of packets that reached the Ethernet RQ but cannot fit into the WQE due to their large size. Additionally, we added the option to control if such packet will cause "CQE with Error" or "CQE_MOCK".
        * PCIe Rx modifications to prevent the adapter cards from disappearing from the system.
        * ignore_flow_level is now enabled by the TRUST LEVEL access registry. 
        * cq_overrun counter. The counter represents the number of times CQs enter an error state due to overflow that occur when the device tries to post a CQE into a full CQ buffer.
        * [Beta] Enabled the capability to allow Virtual Functions to send Pause Frames packets.
        * Enabled 10/25GbE auto-sensing with 3rd party when using 10/25GbE optical cables.
        * Hardware steering dump output used for debugging and troubleshooting.

        * NIC scheduling feature support has been disabled for non-privileged functions.
        * Implemented a new NC-SI command get_debug_info to get mstdump via the NC-SI protocol to debug a device if the PCI link fails for any given reason.
        * support for Enabling/Disabling NIC and RDMA (port/partition) was included via the UEFI HII system settings.
        * Increased the maximum number of MSIX per VF to 127.
        * Asymmetrical MSIX Configuration: This feature allows the device to be configured with a different number of MSIX vectors per physical PCI functions.To use this feature, please follow these steps: 
          *   Clear NUM_PF_MSIX_VALID to disable global symmetrical MSIX configuration.
          *   Set PF_NUM_PF_MSIX_VALID to enable asymmetrical per Physical Function MSIX configuration.
          *   Configure PF_NUM_PF_MSIX per physical PCI function.
        * RDMA partitioning and RDMA counters in IB mode.
        * Added a new bit ("data_in_order") to query the QP and allow a process/library to detect when the AR is enabled.
        * A new flex parser to support GENEVE hardware offload and ICMP.
        * When the non-page-supplier-FLR funcion is initiated, the firmware triggers a page event to the page supplier to indicate that all pages should be returned for the FLR function.
        * Enabled UID 0 to create resources with UMEM (User Memory).
        * Receiving and sending native IB packets from/to the software (including all headers) via raw IBL2 QPs.
        * RX RDMA NIC flow table on an IB port. Now the software can steer native IB packets to raw IB receive queues according to the DLID and  the DQPN.
        * Added a new NVconfig per Port for a specific Finisar module. This new NVconfig sets the port to work in AN mode and sets the module to No DME. This change does not affect the speed logic, only the FEC logic (FEC override). **Note:** If the port does not go up, switch to Force mode.

      **The following issues have been fixed in version 16.32.1010**
      
        * Firmware got into an unresponsive state and caused unexpected behavior when connecting an optical transceiver that support RxLOS and the remote side port was down.
        * The link status was reported incorrectly and consequently caused the link to go down due to incorrect definition of the RX_LOS polarity in the INI.
        * The system got into an unresponsive state when a peer port went down while using an Optical module.
        * Invalid RNR timeout when trying to set it during the rts2rts_qp transition.
        * A fatal assert 0x81C5 occurred when calling get_vport_mad from the MAD APIs. The firmware was trying to compute the number of vPorts using a global function number. To avoid this issue, the API was updated to remove any assumption on the function number. Note: This issue is affects only IB devices.
        * During events, stress caused the firmware to reset the Arm host of the vPort without sending an event. Thus preventing the software from rearming the vPort as it did not receive any event, and the firmware did not send the event because the vPort had no Arm set.
        * The system could not create more than 128K QPs.
        * The GetInventory NC-SI command reported leading 0xf in firmware version when it started with 0.
        * PCIe lane margining capability issues.
        * An issue related to the sl2vl mad that caused a few msec hiccup in the transmission on an InfiniBand network when the SM sent the sl2vl mad to a node in the cluster.

        * Added support for blocking unwanted GMP classes by dedicated MADs.
        * Added a new NvConfig parameter LOG_MAX_QUEUE to set the maximum number of work queue resources (QP, RQ, SQ...) that can be created per function. The default value is 2^17.
        * Added a Congestion Control Key to all Congestion Control MADs to authenticate that they are originated from a trusted source.
        * Added an SMP firewall to block the option of sending SMPs (MADS sent on QP0 from the Subnet Manager) from unauthorized hosts to prevent fake SMPs from being recognized as the SM.
        * Vendor Specific MADs Class 0x9 is no longer supported by the firmware. In case the firmware detects such MAD, the firmware will return a "NOT SUPPORTED" error to the user.
        * Blocked the VF's ability to use both padding and signature in order to prevent the NIC from getting into an unresponsive state.
        * Enabled Rate Limit per VM instead of VM-TC. This capability is implemented by adding support to a new Scheduling element type: rate limit elements that will connect to the rate_limit and will share its rate limit.
        * Performance improvements in the DCT with AR flow by exposing a hint to the software in DCI software context that indicates that RDMA WRITE on this DCI is not supported.
        * Added support for dynamic timeout mechanism when in InfiniBand mode.
        * Added support for QSHR access register to enable Set and Query rate limit perhost per-port.
        * The firmware now exposes a new Software Steering ICM resource for VXLAN encap expand in order for the SW Steering to manage this resource directly.
        * Added support for asymmetrical VFs per PF. To enable it: PF_NUM_OF_VF_VALID must be true, and PF_NUM_OF_VF to a none zero value.
        * Added 2 new MAD access registers to enable mlxlink to read/write access registers by LID (to the whole subnet).
        * Enabled the exposure of new ICM resource to the software steering for VXLAN encapsulation expansion.
        * Limited the external loopback speed to the used module's capabilities.
        * Improved linkup time when using the fast linkup capability.
        * Disabled VST on dual port adapter cards when one port is configured as ETH and the other as IB as VST is not available when the port is set as ETH.
        * Added support for DSFP AOC (CMIS) v4 when error code is not reported by the module.

        * Added pci_rescan_needed field to the MFRL access register to indicate whether a PCI rescan is needed based on the NV configurations issued by the software.  
      Note: If the Keep Link Up NV configuration is changed, phyless reset will be
      blocked.
      
        * Added a new MAD of class SMP that has the attributes hierarchy_Info as defined in the IB Specification and is used to query the hierarchy information stored on the node and the physical port.
        * Added a new register (vhca_icm_ctrl access_reg) to enable querying and limiting the ICM pages in use.
        * Enhanced the XRQ QP error information provided to the user in case QP goes into an error state. In such case, QUERY_QP will provide information on the syndrome type and which side caused the error.
        * Replaced the deprecated NetworkPort schema with Port schema in NIC RDE implementation.
        * Updated the ibstat status reported when the phy link is down. Now QUERY_VPORT_STATE.max_tx_speed of UPLINK will not be reported as 0 anymore.
        * Disabled the option to send SMPs from unauthorized hosts.
        * Enabled the option to modify the ip_ecn field in the packet header in firmware steering.
        * Modified the TX or RX cache invalidation behavior. TX or RX cache invalidation now does not occur automatically but only when the software performs the sync operation using the using sync_steering command.
        * Modified the maximum bulk size per single allocation from "log_table_size - log_num_unisizes", to allocate any range size, to remove limitations that HWS objects such as counters and modify arguments might encounter.
        * Enabled delay drop for hairpin packets. If a hairpin QP is created with delay_drop_en enabled, the feature will be enabled across all GVMIs, based on the delay drop status.

changelog:
  -     *Fixes in version 12.28.2006:**
      
        * Fixes an issue that caused the DCR to be destroyed before the retry option managed to work when the retry timeout is too big. In this case the DCR' time-to-live was increased, and the maximum retry timeout was decreased.
        * Increased PHY power consumption limit to 1.5w.
        * Fixed an issue that caused PortCounters.PortRcvErr / PPCNT.infiniband_counters.PortRcvErr not to report port icrc errors.
      
      **The following issues have been fixed in version 16.35.1012:**
      
        * RDE (Redfish) PATCH operation to LLDPTransmit properties "ManagementAddressIPv4", "ManagementAddressIPv6" and "ManagementAddressMAC" were applied only in the first attempt, but failed in the next.
        * PLDM AEN event receiver media was changed unexpectedly and destination BDF was overridden with garbage when some PLDM packet were received from the SMBus layer.
        * Bad configuration of number of VFs and SFs led to the consumption of too many functions and triggered a FW assert 0x888E. The reduction flows behavior was fixed to ensure the configuration does not exceed the total number of supported functions. 
        * InfiniBand L2 QP could not receive RDMA traffic occasionally.
        * Running with a debug firmware reduced security as if token was applied.

        * Fixed an issue which caused bi-directional traffic 10% BW degradation in Multihost.
        * Increased the CQE zipping aggressive mode timer to 9000.
        * Moving IPoIB enhanced QP to ERR or RST state results in the corruption of the service_type and pm_state in the QPC.
        * Attaching RoCE IPv4 QPs to MCG when the vport state is set to toggle (DOWN/UP), prevents the QPs that are listed on that MCG from receiving any traffic.
        * When arming SRQ for limit event, the device might issue an event with context_index=0.
        * Occasionally, when moving UD QP from error state to RTS, the QP re-enters the error state
        * When performing Pkey check for IPoIB enhanced traffic, the Pkey membership bit is ignored.
        * Stopping the Rate Limiter while traffic is being transmitted might cause the adapter card to hang.
        * Privileged Vport egress traffic is not blocked when Vport is not active
        * PF direct pass-through is not supported in InfiniBand (since PF FLR is not supported)
        * Missing invalidation upon Set().pkey leads to bad Pkey checks.
        * Fixed an issue which caused the HCA mad response to contain the incoming packet Pkey and not the matched Pkey.
        * Modified PCIe Tx configuration.
        * Fixed an issue that prevented the software to set ECN parameters (min_rate, max_rate, rate_to_set_on_first_cnp) to values >32768.
        * Fixed an issue which caused the link speed to raise as DDR when connected with certain copper cables to devices supporting up to QDR speed.

        * Fixed possible negotiation issues with 3rd parties.
        * Fixed a rare issue which caused 56GbE link to raise with errors.
        * Fixed an issue which caused scheduling_context.element_type to be taken into consideration with performing verifications, when running the modify_scheduling_context command, although the field is reserved.
        * Fixed an issue which caused the eSwitch max_average_bw ref counter to decrement in TEARDOWN_HCA/ FLR VF regardless of the max_average_bw value set, although the ref counter design was to increment on every max_average_bw != 0 (limited).
        * On rare occasions during UEFI boot cycles system got stuck while WinPE is loaded. (OS WinPE, system DL160).
        * Single FTE that catches both untagged and prio-tagged packets (by giving an FTE with match_value.vlan_tag = 0 and match_value.vid = 0) is currently not supported.
        * Flashing the firmware requires server reboot. Firmware cannot be flashed twice without server reboot after first flashing.
        * If the vport state is DOWN and a packet is sent in local loopback, the sx_sniffer tool will not function.
        * Fixed an issue causing bubbles to appear as symbol errors when link raised FDR 1x.
        * When Clause 74 Fire-Code FEC is active, and there are FC corrected errors, both the FC_correctable counter and the FC_uncoreectable counter are increment.

        * Fixed an issue which occasionally caused the RX traffic to hang in DC when received a PCI error on WQE fetch.
        * Fixed OOB connection issue during Intel's ITP inject errors test.
        * Fixed an issue in IEEE Auto-Negotiation where 25G FireCode FEC and 25G Reed-Solomon FEC bits were reversed.
        * Fixed an issue which caused RX to hang when a UDP packet with destination port of RoCE v2 arrived and the data matched the DC transport service.
        * Added protection from IOPX thermal diode destabilization to prevent UEFI IPv6 PXE boot failure on ConnectX-4 Lx 25GE OCP card.
        * Fixed an issue causing single port devices to query and write Physical Port TLVs to Port 2.
        * Enabled mlxfwreset to work using the PCIe Secondary Bus Reset.
        * Fixed an issue causing link flapping as a result, incorrect link settings.

        * Instability of Link Training Flow occurs during 100G Auto-Negotiation.
        * Fixed a rare issue which caused the command to hang when moved the QP to RESET and back to RTS.
        * Improved RDMA READ bandwidth under packet lost scenario.
        * Added support for pnat = 1 in HCA access_reg command as required by the ibdiagnet tool.
        * Fixed the LLDP OCBB response: return value is now ascii.

        * Fixed an issue which caused the device to hang when resetting qkey/pkey violation counter via port_info mad.
        * Changed the MTU size in OCBB report. Now MTU size does not include the packet headers.
        * Reduced one hop for Unicast RX steering, steering pipes balancing.
        * Non-volatile configuration of Port Type TLV more than 50 times might cause system hang.
        * Fixed a 25G and 50G link issue when Clause 91 RS FEC was active.
        * Added a missing invalidation of SwitchX cache upon FLR which caused the upcoming driver load to either fail or not to be able to transmit.
        * Fixed an issue which prevented Vport counters from counting local loopback packets. Packets now are filter by the self-loopback prevent
        * Reported INTx as unsupported to allow PFs Passthrough on PowerKVM.
        * SR-IOV Ethernet supports up to 18 VFs per port only.
        * Fixed and incident what allowed local (internal) loopbacked packets to be counted by the Vport counters, although Vport counters should count only traffic that crosses the Vport.
        * Fixed an issue preventing driver loading or TX traffic sending upon reboot, after ungraceful driver unload.
        * Fixed casting of BMC MAC before steering API.
        * Fixed the PCI write flow to take into consideration the PCI MTU. This fix eliminates the need for NOPs in the flow, which resulted from PPC larger PCI MTU.  
      The single queue limitation for READ is due to a hardware limitation of the
      number of READ request in a given time.
      
        * Fixed a case that caused FlexBoot to not work as expected with systems that run with "large bar" enabled (Above 4G Decoding) over Connect-IB or ConnectX-4 HCAs.
        * Fixed PLDM support for single port NICs. Currently port's relevant sensors/states are reported only for a single port.

        * Trust level for QoS prioritization is added according to the DSCP or PCP.
        * Ingress buffer management is added for: 
          * ingress traffic mapping to a buffer according to priority.
          * buffers sizes and lossless parameters.
        * Enhanced steering rules update rate to up to 50K rules per second.
        * Enabled Windows single root input/output virtualization (SR-IOV) Enhanced eIPoIB (without Secure Connection) for Windows-over-Windows setups.
        * crdump operation takes a snapshot of the device's crspace dword-by-dword. It enables the driver to collect debug information upon firmware failure.
        * Secure Firmware Updates provides devices with the ability to verify digital signatures of new firmware binaries, in order to ensure that only officially approved versions are installed on the devices.
        * Changed the default Forward Error Connection (FEC) mode for cables with attenuation 16 and below from Reed Solomon (RS) to FC.

changelog:
  -     *Firmware for the following devices are updated to 12.24.1000:**
      
      825110-B21 (HPE InfiniBand EDR/Ethernet 100Gb 1-port 840QSFP28 Adapter)  
      825111-B21 (HPE InfiniBand EDR/Ethernet 100Gb 2-port 840QSFP28 Adapter)
      
      **Firmware for the following devices are updated to 16.24.1000:**
      
      879482-B21 (HPE InfiniBand FDR/Ethernet 40/50Gb 2-port 547FLR-QSFP Adapter)  
      872726-B21 (HPE InfiniBand EDR/Ethernet 100Gb 2-port 841QSFP28 Adapter)
      
      **Changes and New features in firmware version 12.24.1000 and 16.24.1000:**
      
        * Added support for the following: 
          * An additional layer (Layer 3) of packet processing at the hypervisor level that enables adding and removing protocol headers (e.g., the MAC address is removed during encapsulation, and added during decapsulation) for the encapsulated traffic.
          * Transmission histogram counter set as part of the Ethernet extended group counters.
          * TX steering rule on flow_table_metadata in WQE Ethernet segment.
          * Added L3 encapsulation/decapsulation support in the reformat context allocation. 
            * L3 encapsulation removes L2 headers and adds generic L3 tunnel encapsulation.
            * L3 decapsulation removes the generic L3 tunnel decapsulation and L2 header.
          * Flow steering header modification (header rewrite) for IPv4 TTL header for loopback traffic (VF-VF/VF-PF).  
      Note: TTL modification for traffic from the network is currently not
      supported.
      
          * Requester QP packet based on E2E credits mode. The new flow control supports HCA-to-switch RDMA traffic packet-based End-2-End.
          * IPoIB non-default Partition Keys (PKeys). Now the PKey values can be modified in the PKey table without the need of recreating the IPoIB (underlay) QPs.
          * [Beta] SR-IOV in Multi-Host/Socket-Direct.
          * QUERY_DRIVER_VERSION command. This command allows the PF driver to query its VFs driver version which was set by the SET_DRIVER_VERSION command.
          * New diagnostic counters to evaluate the number of ICMC hits and misses for particular resources.
        * Enabled the hardware to generate an event upon counter incrementation, in order to reduce an overhead from the software from reading rarely updated counters such as error counters.
        * Enabled NOIDNIC connectivity to the network through the e-switch and not directly to the physical port.
        * Enabled setting the QP and the Mkey values by the software upon these resources creation.
        * Enabled advanced PCIe atomic operations. The HCA will perform PCIe atomic operations as a requestor towards the host memory when receiving compatible atomic messages from the network, and according to the configuration of NV_SW_OFFLOAD_CONFIG pci_atomic_mode field and the PCI AtomicOp Requester Enable bit in the Device Control 2 register.
        * Enabled TTL modification in the Rx NIC steering. When modifying the TTL in the Rx NIC, the CQE checksum will not recalculated automatically.  
      Note: TTL modification in the FDB for traffic from the network is currently
      not supported.
      
        * Enabled a single TIR destination from the FDB.
        * Changed the WRED default mode to OFF for Multi-Host adapter cards.
        * [Developers only] Moved the fast teardown HCA cap bit to offset 0x1c.4:1.
        * Enabled Virtual Functions to read QPDPM/QPDP/QPTS.
        * Multi PCI RDMA IB: This capability enables the user to expose two PCI/IB devices per network port.
        * Reduced firmware's memory consumption to increase the supported number of VFs per PF to up to 100.
        * Shutting Down RDMA QPs with Excessive Retransmissions is a mechanism used to detect excessive retransmissions for an RC connection, and to close the connection in response to it. If the number of retransmissions due to a Local Ack Timeout, NAK-Sequence Error, or Implied NAK, during a specified period, exceeds the specified threshold, the QP will be handled as if the IB spec defined Retry Count was exceeded.
      
      **New features in firmware version 12.24.1000:**
      
        * Enabled e-switch steering rule in the NIC without matching it with the Directional MACs (DMAC) protocol. Now the rule is only according to the MC/UC bit.
        * The IB Sniffer utility provides the user the ability to capture the e-switch traffic directly to a hypervisor queue.
        * Increased the number of VFs that can work with full VMQoS (8 TC) per PFs as follow: 
          * in dual port devices to: 0-21, 33-45 VFs (22-32 VFs has single TC)
          * in single port devices to: 0-64 VFs
      
      **New features in firmware version 16.24.1000:**
      
        * Enabled QoS ETS for systems with 64 VFs to better allocate bandwidth in the NIC.
        * Enabled TTL modification for received packets.
        * Mirrors the traffic from/to one VF to a dedicate admin VF for monitoring and traffic analysis. Note that in this process packets are duplicated and different packet modifications apply to different duplications.
        * Enabled TTL modification in the Rx NIC steering. When modifying the TTL in the Rx NIC, the CQE checksum will not recalculated automatically.  
      Note: TTL modification in the FDB for traffic from the network is currently
      not supported.
      
        * Added support for Dynamically Connected Transport (DC) in RoCE in ConnectX-5 adapter cards.
        * Enabled Rx mini-CQE compressed format for striding RQ.
        * Enabled TX steering rule on the application meta-data from the WQE. This functionality implements meta-data Reg A steering and meta-data Reg A and Reg B rewriting.
        * Added MPLS over UDP and MPLS over GRE protocols for tunneling offload/steering match criteria.

changelog:
  -     *Firmware for the following devices are updated to 20.29.1016:**
      
      HPE InfiniBand HDR/Ethernet 200Gb 1-port 940QSFP56 x16 Adapter - P06154-B21  
      HPE InfiniBand HDR100/Ethernet 100Gb 1-port 940QSFP56 x16 Adapter - P06250-B21  
      HPE InfiniBand HDR100/Ethernet 100Gb 2-port 940QSFP56 x16 Adapter - P06251-B21  
      
      
      **New Features and Changes in Version 20.29.1016:**
      
      Added support for following features:
      
        * LinkX module burning via MFT toolset. The new capability enables direct firmware burning from the internal flash storage to reduce the bandwidth and accelerate the burning process, including burning several modules at a time.
        * An option to allow applications to build their own QoS tree over the NIC hierarchy by connecting QPs to responder/requestor Queue Groups.
        * Improved NRZ link performance (RX algorithm).
        * Improved NRZ link-up time (25G(G@G speeds).
        * Enabled the options to control different Tx sets for the same attribute when connecting a Mellanox-Mellanox vs Mellanox to 3rd party HCA.
        * "InfiniBand" properties set to the Network Device Function Redfish object.
        * Direct Packet Placement (DPP): DPP is a receive side transport service in which the Ethernet packets are scattered to the memory according to a packet sequence number (PSN) carried by the packet, and not by their arrival order.
        * To enable DPP offload, the software should create a special RQ by using the CREATE_RQ command, and set DPP relevant attributes.
        * Added trust level for VFs. Once the VF is trusted, it will get a set of trusted capabilities.
        * UCX can now enable AR by exposing Out-Of-Ordering bitmask per SL with "ooo_per_sl" field in the HCA_VPORT context. It can be also queried by running the QUERY_HCA_VPORT_CONTEXT command.
        * Enhanced IB Congestion Control to support lower minimum rate. Now it uses destination-lid to classify flows to handle larger scale, and achieve better results in GPCNeT benchmark.
        * Hardware steering dump output used for debugging and troubleshooting.

        * An issue that prevented VXLAN packets with svlan/cvlan tag from being matched.
        * The eth_wqe_too_small counter to count ODP (On-Demand Paging) page used to fail.
        * An issue related to raising 100GbE link on ConnectX-6 VPI 100Gb/s adapter cards.
        * When MKEY_BY_NAME was enabled by NVCONFIG and a large number of VFs are configured, VM restart (VF/PF FLR) will take longer than when MKEY_BY_NAME is disabled.
        * Low performance occurred after enabling the RoCE Accelerator capability.
        * On rare cases, a fatal error related to errors from the PCI transport layer might be reported during FLR.

        * Added support for blocking unwanted GMP classes by dedicated MADs.
        * Added a new NvConfig parameter LOG_MAX_QUEUE to set the maximum number of work queue resources (QP, RQ, SQ...) that can be created per function. The default value is 2^17.
        * Added a Congestion Control Key to all Congestion Control MADs to authenticate that they are originated from a trusted source.
        * Added an SMP firewall to block the option of sending SMPs (MADS sent on QP0 from the Subnet Manager) from unauthorized hosts to prevent fake SMPs from being recognized as the SM.
        * Vendor Specific MADs Class 0x9 is no longer supported by the firmware. If case the firmware detects such MAD, the firmware will return a "NOT SUPPORTED" error to the user.
        * Blocked the VF's ability to use both padding and signature in order to prevent the NIC from getting into an unresponsive state.
        * Enabled Rate Limit per VM instead of VM-TC. This capability is implemented by adding support to a new Scheduling element type: rate limit elements that will connect to the rate_limit and will share its rate limit.
        * Performance improvements in the DCT with AR flow by exposing a hint to the software in DCI software context that indicates that RDMA WRITE on this DCI is not supported.
        * Added support for dynamic timeout mechanism when in InfiniBand mode.
        * Added support for QSHR access register to enable Set and Query rate limit per-host per-port.
        * The firmware now exposes a new Software Steering ICM resource for VXLAN encap expand in order for the SW Steering to manage this resource directly.
        * Added support for asymmetrical VFs per PF. To enable it: PF_NUM_OF_VF_VALID must be true, and PF_NUM_OF_VF to a none zero value.

        * Invalid RNR timeout when trying to set it during the rts2rts_qp transition.
        * The flash frequency on boot was lower than expected (under 50Mhz). The issue was fixed by enabling the firmware to increase it on boot2 to normal frequency.
        * A race condition between DC QP flush and DC packets that led to stuck slices in the hardware. To avoid such situation, firmware keeps the TCU drop set until QP flush is done.
        * Firmware got into an unresponsive state and caused unexpected behavior when connecting an optical transceiver that support RxLOS and the remote side port was down.
        * The link status was reported incorrectly and consequently caused the link to go down due to incorrect definition of the RX_LOS polarity in the INI.

changelog:
  -     *Firmware for the following devices has been updated to 20.33.1048:**
      
        * HPE InfiniBand HDR/Ethernet 200Gb 1-port QSFP56 PCIe3 x16 MCX653105A-HDAT Adapter - P06154-B21
        * HPE InfiniBand HDR100/Ethernet 100Gb 1-port QSFP56 PCIe3 x16 MCX653105A-ECAT Adapter - P06250-B21
        * HPE InfiniBand HDR100/Ethernet 100Gb 2-port QSFP56 PCIe3 x16 MCX653106A-ECAT Adapter - P06251-B21
      
      **New features and changes included in version 20.33.1048:**
      
        * Added pci_rescan_needed field to the MFRL access register to indicate whether a PCI rescan is needed based on the NV configurations issued by the software.  
      Note: If the Keep Link Up NV configuration is changed, phyless reset will be
      blocked.
      
        * Added a new MAD of class SMP that has the attributes hierarchy_Info as defined in the IB Specification and is used to query the hierarchy information stored on the node and the physical port.
        * Added a new register (vhca_icm_ctrl access_reg) to enable querying and limiting the ICM pages in use.
        * Enhanced the XRQ QP error information provided to the user in case QP goes into an error state. In such case, QUERY_QP will provide information on the syndrome type and which side caused the error.
        * Updated the ibstat status reported when the phy link is down. Now QUERY_VPORT_STATE.max_tx_speed of UPLINK will not be reported as 0 anymore.
        * Replaced the deprecated NetworkPort schema with Port schema in NIC RDE implementation. 
        * Disabled the option to send SMPs from unauthorized hosts.
        * Enabled the option to modify the ip_ecn field in the packet header in firmware steering.
        * Modified the TX or RX cache invalidation behavior. TX or RX cache invalidation now does not occur automatically but only when the software performs the sync operation using the using sync_steering command.
        * Modified the maximum bulk size per single allocation from "log_table_size - log_num_unisizes", to allocate any range size, to remove limitations that HWS objects such as counters and modify arguments might encounter. 
        * Crypto features can be in either wrapped or unwrapped mode. Meaning, the key can be wrapped or in plaintext when running the CREATE_DEK PRM command. To comply with the requirements specified in FIPS publication, all the created DEKs must be wrapped.  
      This feature adds new NV_CONFIG per device to control this mode, and enables
      the user to change all the crypto features to wrapped or cleartext.
      
        * Enabled delay drop for hairpin packets. If a hairpin QP is created with delay_drop_en enabled, the feature will be enabled across all GVMIs, based on the delay drop status.

changelog:
  -     *New features and Changes added in firmware version 20.27.1016:**
      
        * RoCE Selective Repeat : This feature introduces a new QP (Queue Pair) retransmission mode in RoCE: recovery from packet drop by resending the dropped packet and not only all the PSN window (Go-Back-N protocol),  
      This new capability comes with the following limitations:
      
          * Selective repeat cannot be used with AR.
          * Does not work with signature (T10-DIF).
          * Does not work with Tag Matching enabled.
        * Allows BMC (Board Management Control) to query and control NIC over RedFish API. Currently, the NIC supports reading data and setting basic Ethernet and InfiniBand parameters.
        * Enables matching of source_vhca_port in the FDB also known as FIB ( Forwarding Information Base) flow for ECMP (Equal Cost Multi Pathing) hardware offload on a single FDB.
        * Firmware can be now updated as well as DB strings while performing Live Firmware Patch.
        * 100GbE link speed is supported in Auto-Negotiation Mode.
        * 200GbE link speed is supported in Force Mode.
        * Added support for the following: 
          * Dumping hardware steering entries (raw data) using the resource dump API
          * A new field in the PTYS register (max_port_rate).
          * Relaxed ordering read when using the create_mkey flag
          * DCQCN (Data Center and Quantized Congestion Notification) Congestion Control to ConnectX-6 InfiniBand adapter cards to improve application performance in case of congestion in the network.

        * The PCIe Tx parameters did not load correctly when the speed was changed after the PCIe link was disabled.
        * The desched_threshold field did not work properly.
        * The "roce_adp_retrans" counter was presenting the values of the "local_ack_timeout_err" counter.
        * If Relaxed Ordering was disabled by running the "setpci" command, it would not be functional even after re-enabling it by running the "setpci" command again.
        * Aligned the User Memory page to 2, e.g., the user should use 8k aligned (like 0, 8k, 16k etc., instead of 0, 4k, 12k etc.).
        * NRZ (non-return-to-zero) and PAM4 (Pulse amplitude modulation) Limitations in 100GbE adapter cards: 
          * The default configuration was NRZ speeds in Auto-Neg mode.
          * PAM4 speeds had to be set manually (using the MFT tool - mlxlink).
          * PAM4 speeds had to be configured as single speeds: 50G_1x or 100G_2x.
          * 200G_4x optical cables (including 200G_4x splitter cable) would raise link only after manual configuration of PAM4 speeds (50G_1x or 100G_2x).
        * NRZ and PAM4 Limitations in 200GbE adapter cards: 
          * The default configuration was 200G_x4 in Force mode.
          * NRZ speeds had to be set manually. Configuration could include multiple NRZ speeds (using the MFT tool - mlxlink).
          * PAM4 speeds had to be configured as single speeds: 50G_1x or 100G_2x or 200G_4x.
        * In Ethernet mode, at 25/50/100GbE speeds, only RS-FEC in Force mode was supported. Other user configurations were overridden.

changelog:
  -     *Fixes in version 2.40.5030 and 2.40.5072:**
      
        * Race between the firmware and the hardware during driver start which blocked outbound completions.
        * The firmware did not send link_down event to the driver when running the close_port command.
      
      **Fixes in version 2.42.5000:**
      
        * PortRcvPkts counter was prevented from being cleared after resetting it.
        * The system Timed Out on the configuration cycle of the Virtual Functions (VFs) when more than 10 Virtual Functions performed FLR and the completion Time Out value was configured to a range of less than 16 msec.
        * The server hangs and results in NMI when running "mlxfwtop -d mt4103_pci_cr0" while restarting the driver in parallel (from a different thread). In this case, the downstream bridge over the device reported completion timeout error.
        * In flow_steering, BMC could not receive a ping over IPV6 after running bmc_reboot.
        * While closing the HCA, the RX packet caused bad access to resources that did not exist, and consequently caused the QPCGW or the irisc to get stuck.
        * The master SMLID and the LID was either 0 or 0xFFFF when the port was neither active nor armed.
        * ibdump could not capture all MADs packets.
        * link did not go up after reboot.
        * Fixed a rare issue that cause the PCIe configuration cycle that arrived during the time of sw_reset to generate 2 completions.
        * Network Controller Sideband Interface (NC-SI) did not work when adding the disable_static_steering_ini field in the ini file, due to memory allocation issue for this field in the scratchpad.
      
      **Fixes in version 2.42.5004:**

changelog:
  -     *Fixes in version 2.42.5000:**
      
        * PortRcvPkts counter was prevented from being cleared after resetting it.
        * The system Timed Out on the configuration cycle of the Virtual Functions (VFs) when more than 10 Virtual Functions performed FLR and the completion Time Out value was configured to a range of less than 16 msec.
        * The server hangs and results in NMI when running "mlxfwtop -d mt4103_pci_cr0" while restarting the driver in parallel (from a different thread). In this case, the downstream bridge over the device reported completion timeout error.
        * In flow_steering, BMC could not receive a ping over IPV6 after running bmc_reboot.
        * While closing the HCA, the RX packet caused bad access to resources that did not exist, and consequently caused the QPCGW or the irisc to get stuck.
        * The master SMLID and the LID was either 0 or 0xFFFF when the port was neither active nor armed.
        * ibdump could not capture all MADs packets.
        * link did not go up after reboot.
        * Fixed a rare issue that cause the PCIe configuration cycle that arrived during the time of sw_reset to generate 2 completions.
        * Network Controller Sideband Interface (NC-SI) did not work when adding the disable_static_steering_ini field in the ini file, due to memory allocation issue for this field in the scratchpad.
      
      **Fixes in version 2.42.5044:**
      
        * Fixed an issue that  prevented the firmware from detecting a link_down event thus preventing the IB bond interface from going to a failover mode

      **Changes and New Features in firmware version 20.27.1016:**
      
        * RoCE Selective Repeat introduces a new QP retransmission mode in RoCE: recovery from packet drop by resending the dropped packet and not only all the PSN window (Go-Back-N protocol),  
      This new capability comes with the following limitations:
      
          * Selective repeat cannot be used with AR
          * Does not work with signature (T10-DIF)
          * Does not work with Tag Matching enabled
        * Allows BMC to query and control NIC over RedFish API (https://www.dmtf.org/standards/redfish). Currently, the NIC supports reading data and setting basic Ethernet and InfiniBand parameters.
        * Enables matching of source_vhca_port in the FDB flow for ECMP hardware offload on a single FDB.
        * Firmware can be now updated as well as DB strings while performing Live Firmware Patch.
        * 100GbE link speed is supported in Auto-Negotiation Mode.
        * 200GbE link speed is supported in Force Mode.
        * Added support for the following features: 
          * Dumping hardware steering entries (raw data) using the resource dump API.
          * A new field in the PTYS register (max_port_rate).
          * Relaxed ordering read when using the create_mkey flag.  
      Note: This capability is not supported when using Multi-Host cards and when in
      PCIe-Switch  
      mode.
      
          * DCQCN Congestion Control to ConnectX-6 InfiniBand adapter cards to improve application performance in case of congestion in the network.

        * Component would fail to install drive firmware for drives present in a system configured with two or more external drive enclosures attached to an HP Host Bus Adapter H22x. The following message would be reported in the component log file - "Device appears more than once in tree". The drive firmware installation failure was not observed in configurations having only one external drive enclosure attached to an HP Host Bus Adapter H22x.

changelog:
  -      Fixes a data integrity risk where stale data is mistakenly used from cache.
        * Fixes a data integrity risk where stale data is returned on an unaligned overlapped write-read operation.
        * Fixes a data integrity risk during a sequential read and write workload when a recovered error is encountered, which could cause incomplete data to be read.

changelog:
  -      **Online firmware flashing of drives attached to an HPE Smart Array controller running in Zero Memory (ZM) mode or an HPE ProLiant host bus adapter (HBA) is NOT supported. Only offline firmware flashing of drives is supported for these configurations.**
        * **Online drive firmware update available for Smart Array Controllers configured in systems running supported Linux, Microsoft Windows, and VMware environments. All other OSes would require an offline update using the SPP and HP SUM.**
        * **Customers who already installed firmware version HPD6 do not need to update to HPD6(C).**

changelog:
  -      If Power On Hours exceeds 70,000hrs, PM2R will report Hardware error (04/4C/A8) after the next Power Cycle and will not accept read/write commands. This fix will update storage location reporting when the maximum number of registrations in the Work Load Log read process reaches 70,000; the last registered 70,000th storage location will be modified to be read as the next (70,001st) storage location.

        * Adds support for HPE ProLiant Gen10 servers.


author: HP Linux Development <Linux_SWdeliverables@external.groups.hpe.com> HPD4-2.1
changelog:
  -     *Problems Fixed:**
      
        * This firmware improves HDD reliability when HDDs are exposed to long periods of host inactivity that exceed 1 second. HDDs may become unresponsive when using HDD firmware prior to version HPD4.  This firmware also contains a change which prevents an incorrect reassign status of a repaired sector from being logged.

changelog:
  -      Removes a vendor unique sense code that the controller does not handle properly.
        * Includes changes to eliminate the cause of a potential hang condition.
        * Changes some settings to comply with Microsoft Storage Spaces Certification requirements.


author: HP Linux Development <Linux_SWdeliverables@external.groups.hpe.com> HPD4
changelog:
  -      Drive would stop responding on read retry Step 50 of Controller code correction.
        * In extremely rare cases, internal drive testing found that if I_T nexus loss is greater than 2 seconds, data loss might occur. If this rare condition occurs, the drive reports sense code 06/29/04 (HDD executed internal reboot), which displays on the screen and is entered in the drive log.
      
        * Drive may report sense code 02/04/02 instead of 02/04/01 if MODE SENSE and MODE SELECT command come before drive ready. The drive name will no longer display in the list, and the system will not be able to access the drive until the system is power-cycled or reset.
