  • ihex firmwares can include a jump address for starting execution. Add a
    -j option which will cause this to be written into the generated file as a
    record with address zero and data consisting of the address to jump to,
    allowing drivers to make use of this information.

    This format is chosen because it most closely follows the original ihex
    format, though it may make more sense to write a record with length zero
    and the address stored as the address. The records are not omitted by
    default since our ihex format does not include record type information and
    so including additional records may lead to confusion.

  • It doesn't like pattern and explicit rules to be on the same line,
    and it seems to be more picky when matching file (or really directory)
    names with different numbers of trailing slashes.

  • Extract the microcode for the QLogic QLE7220 series IB HCA and use the
    kernel microcode request facility to load the microcode. This
    supports Debian Linux's requirements to separate microcode which
    doesn't have open source code available from the device driver.

  • Loosely based on a patch by
    Jaswinder Singh Rajput .

    KMS support by Dave Airlie .

    For Radeon 100- to 500-series, firmware blobs look like:
    struct {
    __be32 datah;
    __be32 datal;
    } cp_ucode[256];

    For Radeon 600-series, there are two separate firmware blobs:
    __be32 me_ucode[PM4_UCODE_SIZE * 3];
    __be32 pfp_ucode[PFP_UCODE_SIZE];

    For Radeon 700-series, likewise:
    __be32 me_ucode[R700_PM4_UCODE_SIZE];
    __be32 pfp_ucode[R700_PFP_UCODE_SIZE];

  • The new FW improves the packets per second rate. It required a lot of change in
    the FW which implies many changes in the driver to support it. It is now also
    possible for the driver to use a separate MSI-X vector for Rx and Tx - this also
    add some to the complicity of this change.

    All things said - after this patch, practically all performance matrixes show
    improvement.
    Though Vladislav Zolotarov is not signed on this patch, he did most of the job
    and deserves credit for that.
