Description

cxgbe(4): Update T6, T5, and T4 firmwares to 1.16.63.0.

Changes since 1.16.26.0 for all three firmwares are listed below. This
list was obtained from the Release Notes of the Chelsio Unified Wire
v3.5.05 release for Linux.

T6 Firmware

++++++++++++

Version : 1.16.63.0

Date : 09/29/2017

Fixes

BASE:

Fixed a fw crash when configured traffic rate limit is less than 10kbps.
Fixed traffic rate limiting for smaller traffic rate value.

ETH:

Fixed 40G link failure when interface is toggled.
Fixed adapter crash when interface is toggled during traffic.
Fixed 25G link failure when PEER only supports consortium mode autoneg for 25G.
Fixed 100G optics link failure when cable is plugged in after bringing up the interface.
Enable RS FEC as default if speed is 100G.
Fixed DCBX configuration refresh failure.

OFLD

Fixed 0B iWARP ingress read failure.
Fixed iWARP SRQ reuse failure.

FOiSCSI:

Fixed vlan interface ping failure.
Fixed target discovery failures.
Fixed mutual chap login failure.

Version : 1.16.59.0

Date : 09/05/2017

FIXES

BASE:

Fixed fw crash caused by MC parity error in SO adapters.
Generate Timer0Int interrupt if fw crashes due to unaligned access error. Host driver must look into PCIE_FW register to see if any fw fatal error has encountered. If PCIE_FW doesn't indicate any error then driver must ignore this interrupt.
Fixed receive buffer threshold settings which was resulting in error frames on receive side.

ETH:

Fixed an issue in connection traffic shaping when FLOWC_WR->FW_FLOWC_MNEM_SCHEDCLASS is not received in first WR on the connection.
Fixed link failure when speed is changed from 10G-1G-10G due to incorrect flag check.
Fixed improper LED behaviour for blink test and when traffic is running.
Removed storage of previous fec settings from fw. Driver needs to pass the user settings whenever a new module is plugged in as fw resets these when a module is unplugged.

OFLD

OVS offload: TP cache is flushed periodically to get the accuate filters stats (hit count).

ENHANCEMENTS

BASE:

Ring backbone feature added. New FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DEV_RING_BACKBONE param type added to query and enable ring backbone support.
VNI support added for filtering. New entry_type FW_VI_MAC_TYPE_EXACTMAC_VNI added to FW_VI_MAC_CMD.
Added new API FW_PARAM_PARAM_DEV_MPSBGMAP to read the priority to buffer group mapping for the ports.
FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DEV_TPCHMAP API added to read the port to channel mapping.
HMA (Host memory access) support added. New FW_HMA_CMD and FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DEV_HMA_SIZE added to query and configure the HMA. It enables the memfree support (256 connections) for iwarp.
PTP support enabled.

ETH:

Added consortium mode 50G support.
Added the ability to allow only selected speeds to be advertised during auto negotiation.
Increased port capability from 16 to 32 bits to support more speeds. FW_PARAMS_PARAM_PFVF_PORT_CAPS32 added to query whether fw supports 16 or 32 bit port capability.

OFLD:

RDMA Write with immediate support added (iwarp 2.0 feature)
FW_TLS_KEYCTX_TX_WR removed and security key management moved to driver.
256 offloaded connections support for iwarp on SO adapters.

iSCSI:

New param FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DEV_PPOD_EDRAM added for iscsi ppod configuration in EDRAM (performance improvement).

FOiSCSI:

iSCSI Command offload target support added.

FOFCoE:

FCoE support enabled.

Version : 1.16.43.0

Date : 05/05/2017

FIXES

BASE:

Fixed default DCB mode to AUTO.
Fixed DCBX bugs when AUTO mode is configured in config file.
Fixed an issue where even after removing PFC from switch, PFC wasn't getting reset.
Fixed DDR3/DDR4 ECC errors.
Fixed an FLR issue where FLR completion was going to host before FLR processing is finished in fw.

ETH:

Fixed bug in writing multi-bytes using i2c interface.
Fixed the link failure when optical cable is inserted into the QSA module after loading the driver.
Fixed false link up when peer interface was brought down.
Enabling RS FEC by default for 100Gbase-SR4 according to 802.3BJ standard.
Fixed bugs related to negotiated fec based local/peer fec ability and request.
Fixed auto-neg failure with few switches.
T6 Performance improvement fixes.

OFLD

Fixed an extra credit issue if FW_RI_TYPE_FINI is delayed in fw due to backpressure.
Added a new queue type FW_IQ_TYPE_VF_CQ to handle the FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DMAQ* commands. queue type will be part of the FW_PARAMS_PARAM_DMAQ_IQ_INTIDX value. Used in guest RDMA (RDMA from VM/VF) usecase.
T6 Crypto Coprocessor mode bug fixes.
T6 Crypto TLS-inline mode bug fixes.

ENHANCEMENTS

BASE:

Added new API FW_PARAM_PARAM_DEV_MPSBGMAP to read the priority to buffer group mapping for the ports.

ETH:

Added spider mode support.
Added support for 10G-BaseT converter sfp+ module.
Added support for additional 25G/100G cables.
