[Test Plan] * sudo apt install initramfs-tools * echo bnx2x | sudo tee -a /etc/initramfs-tools/modules * sudo apt install linux-oem-20.04 linux-generic-hwe-20.04-edge With current linux-firmware the above results in: update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.15.0-22-generic W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e2-7.13.21.0.fw for module bnx2x W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e1h-7.13.21.0.fw for module bnx2x W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e1-7.13.21.0.fw for module bnx2x with updated linux-firmware no lines of "Possible missing firmware" should appear. [Where problems could occur] * v21 firmware version is backwards compatible with v15 firmware previously used, but includes bugfixes. It may result in different NIC behavior. [Other Info] * The v21 firmware is already present in Jammy * The kernels that use v21 firmware are not going to be shipped in Impish * The kernels that use v21 firmware will be available/used in Focal Upstream changelog for the blobs: New firmware v7.13.21.0 along with below fixes/enhancements (which were also part of 7.13.20.0) maintains backward compatibility as well, so that driver can be worked with both the new firmware and an older firmware. - Support direct invalidation of FP HSI Ver per function ID, required for invalidating FP HSI Ver prior to each VF start, as there is no VF start - BRB parity error detection support for the driver - Fix the FCOE underrun flow - Fix PSOD during FCoE BFS over the NIC ports after preboot driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1962155/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
