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.

There doesn't appear to be any driver version that will request the

"cxgb4/t4fw.bin" which remains as a symlink.

The nvram file contains configuration info for firmware which varies
with different hardware designs. The version currently in the
repository is for a Broadcom-internal development board that is not
available on the market. This file is not applicable for any exsisting
end-user product. Users should use the nvram file that was
shipped with their device to avoid unexpected or incorrect behavior.
Remove the file from repository to avoid confusion.

v1.1 allows finer grained tuning of the SSC (spread-spectrum-clocking)
settings for SAS and SATA. See notes in probe_roms.h
v1.3 allows the attenuation of the attached cables to be specified to
the driver in terms of 'short', 'medium', and 'long' (see probe_roms.h).
These settings (per phy) are retrieved from the platform oem-parameters
(BIOS rom), the fallback firmware blob, or via a module parameter
override.

Most of the CIS files come from the pcmcia-cs project and are built
from a text format using the pack_cis tool.
In pcmcia-cs 3.2.8, apparently the last release, pack_cis had some
bugs that are fatal when it is built with a current gcc and glibc.
Therefore I refer to my own repackaged version that runs successfully
and generates exactly the same binaries included here.

New firmware fixes iSCSI problems with some LeftHand targets that don't
set TTT=0xffffffff for Data-In according to spec. Firmware generates
exception warnings for this condition and becomes very slow. This is
fixed by suppressing these warnings when using default error mask.

like it was really meant to be a binary constant. Comparing
with the binary, it appears that as31 used to treat this as 0,

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.

The new wl12xx fw (ver 7.3.0.0.77) had some major api changes.
The main change was the addition of multi-role concept.
For each chip there are two FW kind:
1) A single FW for both STA and AP roles
2) PLT FW that support calibration process
Update FW for WL128x chip to 7.3.0.0.77:
STA & AP FW version
PLT FW version
Update FW for WL127x chip 6.3.0.0.77:
STA & AP FW version

These blobs are released by the OLPC project, and drive Marvell
libertas chips. OLPC hardware has additional features and quirks,
which makes special firmware necessary. The 'lbtf' blobs are
thin firmware, which allows the Linux drivers more control over
the device's functionality.
