      bnx2x: update fw to 7.8.2 · 236367db
      Yuval Mintz authored 
      

This new firmware fixes several minor bugs:
 1. In switch dependent mode, DCB priority was used to override inner vlan
    priority.
 2. In switch dependent  mode, inner vlan was added in case of DCB priority
    even if outer vlan was present.
 3. In switch dependent mode, outer vlan was overridden by DCB priority when
    working in STATIC COS mode while inner vlan was present.
 4. iSCSI - under heavy iSCSI traffic, when TCP out-of-order condition
    occurred, it was possible for the connection to close and recover.
 5. iSCSI - connections on-chip TCP establishment might have failed.
 6. iSCSI - out-of-order isles might have caused on-chip TCP connections
    to fail in their graceful termination.
 7. iSCSI - there was a theoretical race in which an RST packet sent from
    pure-ack queue in specific timing could cause a credit-return overflow.
 8. iSCSI - not all packets were completed on a forward channel.
 9. DCB - fixed for 4-port devices; Until now, wrong credit counters were
    used, causing dcb to fail.
10. Fixed false parity reported in CAM memories when operating near -5% on
    the 1.0V core supply.
11. ETS default settings are set to fairness between traffic classes (rather
    than strict priority), and uses the same chip receive buffer configuration
    for both PFC and pause.

      bnx2x: adding fw 7.2.16 · 6f8990bc
      Barak Witkowski authored 
      

This new FW adds the ability to aggregate packets for GRO (and not just LRO) and
also fixes some bugs. Please consider adding it to the FW tree:

1. Added new aggregation mode: GRO. In this mode packets are aggregated such
   that the original packets can be reconstructed by the O/S.
2. 57712 HW bug workaround - initialized all CAM TM registers to 0x32.
3. Adding the FCoE statistics structures to the BNX2X HSI.
4. Wrong configuration of TX HW input buffer size may cause theoretical
   performance effect. Performed configuration fix.
5. FCOE - Arrival of packets beyond task IO size can lead to crash.
   Fix firmware data-in flow.
6. iSCSI - In rare cases of on-chip termination the graceful termination timer
   hangs, and the termination doesn't complete. Firmware fix to MSL timer
   tolerance.
7. iSCSI - Chip hangs when target sends FIN out-of-order or with isles open at
   the initiator side. Firmware implementation corrected to drop FIN received
   out-of-order or with isles still open.
8. iSCSI - Chip hangs when in case of retransmission not aligned to 4-bytes from
   the beginning of iSCSI PDU. Firmware implementation corrected to support
   arbitrary aligned retransmissions.
9. iSCSI - Arrival of target-initiated NOP-IN during intense ISCSI traffic might
   lead to crash. Firmware fix to relevant flow.

      bnx2x: Adding FW 7.0.29.0 · 15888a2e
      Dmitry Kravkov authored 
      

Includes fixes for the following issues:
  1. (iSCSI) Arrival of un-solicited ASYNC message causes
     firmware to abort the connection with RST.
  2. (FCoE) There is a probability that truncated FCoE packet on
     RX path won't get detected which might lead to FW assert.
  3. (iSCSI) Arrival of target-initiated NOP-IN during intense
     ISCSI traffic might lead to FW assert.
  4. (iSCSI) Chip hangs when in case of retransmission not aligned
     to 4-bytes from the beginning of iSCSI PDU.
  5. (FCoE) Arrival of packets beyond task IO size can lead to crash.
