Firmware
========

Version : 1.26.6.0
Date    : 01/31/2022
================================================================================

Fixes
-----

BASE:
- Fixed one module eeprom read failure.
- Fixed an issue with speed selection when 40G and 25G are advertised and 
  supported.

  messages from a switch.

================================================================================
================================================================================


Version : 1.26.4.0
Date    : 11/26/2021
================================================================================

Fixes
-----

BASE:
- Wait 5ms before and after the i2c command that clears the mod_select. This
  fixes incorrect port module type read from i2c.
- Added support for SFP+ RJ45 (0x1C).
- Fixing backward compatibility issue with older drivers when multiple speeds
  are passed to firmware.
- Fixed error on setting 25G speed on 100G copper with multiple FEC set in 
  firmware commands.
- Handle link of unknown optics modules by enabling module tx unconditionally.
- Fixed link not coming up for 25G CRS phys. Firmware incorrectly tried to 
  bringup the link in RS-FEC but as per IEEE spec, it must be BASER FEC.
- Fixed an issue where firmware doesn't automatically retry next FEC if driver 
  asks to bringup the link using RS-FEC and link doesn't come up.

OFLD:
- Do not touch tp_plen_max (unit in which firmware sends data to further
  pipeline) if driver is supplying tp_plen_max. This fixes a connection reset 
  issue in iscsi.


ENHANCEMENTS
------------

BASE:
- Firmware header modified to add firmware binary signature.
