changelog:
  -     Fixed an issue where a bad frame (in this case a "short frame") combined with
      an invalid data word in the Fibre Channel transmission may result in the bad
      frame not being detected by the adapter firmware and ultimately passed up to
      the adapter driver.  This can result  in Invalid IO messages being sent to
      applications or storage devices by the HBA driver.  
      This has only been observed in Virtual connect login distribution environments
      under simulated stress test conditions -  doing frequent fabric logouts and
      logins as a result of repeated rebalancing operations between the VC-FC
      module's FC uplinks.

        * After the link was brought down over an electrical connection, the Loss of Sync counter of the _Link Error Status _Block was not incremented due to an unhandled transition in the FC_port state machine
        * Unexpected behavior of an Initiator performance seen when certain targets return otherwise good FCP_RSP IUs, but containing a non-zero parameter field. This was caused by configuring the application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) to treat this condition as a non-performance case
      
      **BIOS**:
      
        * NONE
      
      **UEFI**:
      
        * Firmware Management Protocol _SetImage_ unexpected behavior that caused QLogic Converge Console (QCC) Command Line Interface (CLI) to display the wrong Flash Image Version.

  -     *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.
      
      
      
      Additional issue details will be published when they become available.

      **New features and changes in version 12.21.1000:**
      
        * Added support for the following features: 
          * InfiniBand native (No SR-IOV) dual port device (Function per port is disabled). In this mode virtualization is not supported and ISSI = 0.
          * 10G/40G on 100GbE AOC/transceivers vs. non Mellanox devices.
        * PTP packets time stamping is enabled upon packet's arrival to the port.
        * Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) is enabled by default for all priorities on Ethernet ports.
        * DC CNAK improves sent CNAK performance and avoids back pressure in ConnectX-4 adapter cards.
        * Receiver Signal Integrity Improvements: 
          * Raised the link only with phase greater than 15 ticks to improve signal integrity.
          * Extended measurement test between two similar RX configurations.
          * Moved the data path to use the second input buffer to improve signal integrity.
        * RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) Dual Port Mode enables the usage of a dual port Virtual HCA (vHCA) to share RDMA resources (e.g., MR, CQ, SRQ, PDs) across the two Ethernet (RoCE) NIC network ports and display the NIC as a dual port device. For this feature to function properly, the following requirements must be met: 
          * Either the LAG or the Dual Port mode is enabled by the driver.
          * Dual port device: both ports must be set as ETH.
          * In ConnectX-4/ConnectX-4 Lx adapter cards, the maximum allowed number of VFs per PF is 32.
          * Function per port is enabled.

        * 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:
  -     *Fixes in firmware version 12.22.4030 and 16.22.4030:**
      
        * In rare cases, where the width of the receiver's electrical eye is narrow, the link might raise with BER lower than 10^-12.
        * LRO timeout configuration is now taken from the TLV configuration instead of the static defined values.
        * Added a filter to ignore module temperature reads below -40C and above 125C.
        * Closed the vport as part of the fast teardown flow, to prevent Ack to be sent without been scatter to memory.
        * A rare scenario where the PERST# de-assertion arrived at a specific critical time period was handled.
        * Temperature normalization function calculation issue. Now the cable gain that is not pure integer is taken into account.
        * The parser of object 0x8 in ASN that caused different structure in response.
        * An issue that caused MSIX interrupt lost while the HCA performed an FLR was handled.

changelog:
  -     *Firmware for the following devices are updated to 12.24.1000:**
      
      843400-B21 (HPE Apollo A10 InfiniBand EDR (100Gb) 2-port Adapter)
      
      **Firmware for the following devices are updated to 16.24.1000:**
      
      872723-B21 (HPE Apollo InfiniBand EDR 100Gb 2-port 841z Mezzanine Adapter)  
      872725-B21 (HPE InfiniBand EDR 100Gb 1-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.

        * 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).

changelog:
  -     *Fixes submitted in version 12.26.1040:**
      
        * 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.

        * Unexpected queue pairs transitioned to error in lossy tests.
        * Limited the maximum amount of dumps created on a PF.
        * 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).

      872725-B21 (HPE InfiniBand EDR 100Gb 1-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.

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.

        * "InfiniBand" properties set to the Network Device Function Redfish object.
        * HW support for Flow Metering to utilize Advanced Steering Operation (ASO). HW Flow Meter allows higher scale, more accuracy, and better performance compared to the FW Flow Metering.
        * Trust level for VFs. Once the VF is trusted, it will get a set of trusted capabilities.
        * 2 new Mini CQE formats: Responder Mini CQE With Flow Tag Layout Responder Mini CQE With l3_l4_info Layout
        * 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.
        * 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.

        * 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.

        * 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 16.32.1010**
      
        * 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.

      **New features and changes included in version 12.28.2006:**
      
        * Increased the maximum XRQ number to 512.
      
      **New features and changes included in version 16.33.1048:**
      
        * 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.
        * 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.
