From 76726ccb7f461c83040e7082cf95fe1dea2afd1f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jakub Kicinski Date: Thu, 14 Feb 2019 13:40:44 -0800 Subject: devlink: add flash update command Add devlink flash update command. Advanced NICs have firmware stored in flash and often cryptographically secured. Updating that flash is handled by management firmware. Ethtool has a flash update command which served us well, however, it has two shortcomings: - it takes rtnl_lock unnecessarily - really flash update has nothing to do with networking, so using a networking device as a handle is suboptimal, which leads us to the second one: - it requires a functioning netdev - in case device enters an error state and can't spawn a netdev (e.g. communication with the device fails) there is no netdev to use as a handle for flashing. Devlink already has the ability to report the firmware versions, now with the ability to update the firmware/flash we will be able to recover devices in bad state. To enable updates of sub-components of the FW allow passing component name. This name should correspond to one of the versions reported in devlink info. v1: - replace target id with component name (Jiri).
