> Patch 1 fixes a FW image compatibility check in the driver that > prevents certain FW images from being flashed on BE3 (not BE3-R) > adapters. > > Patch 2 fixes a spin_lock not being released in a failure case in > be_cmd_notify_wait(). > > Patch 3 includes a workaround to pad packets that are only 32b long or less > to be applicabe to BE3 too. This workaround was currently applied only to > Skyhawk and Lancer chips. Such packets are causing BE3's TX path to stall > on a SR-IOV config. > > Patch 4 fixes the be_cmd_get_profile_config() routine to set the pf_num > field in the cmd request. The FW requires this field to be set for it to > return the specific function's descriptors. If not set, the FW returns > the descriptors of all the functions on the device. If the first descriptor > is not what is being queried for, the driver will read wrong data. > This patch fixes this issue by using the GET_CNTL_ATTRIB cmd to query the > real pci_func_num of a function and then uses it in the GET_PROFILE_CONFIG > cmd. > > Patch 5 completes an earlier fix that removed the vlan promisc capability > for VFs. The earlier fix did not update the removal of this capability from > the profile descriptor of the VF. This causes the VF driver to request this > capability when it tries to create it's interface at probe time. This could > potentailly cause the VF probe to fail if the FW enforces strict checking of > the flags based on what was provisoned by the PF. This strict checking is > not being done by FW currently but will be fixed in a future version. This > patch fixes this issue by updating the VF's profile descriptor so that they > match the interface capability flags provisioned by the PF. > > Pls consider adding these patches to the net tree.
