And the reason why you need to flash some .ini files separately is?

Hi Jakub,

The firmware config file contains information on how the firmware
should distribute the hardware resources among NIC and
Upper Layer Drivers(ULD), like iWARP, crypto, filtering, etc.

The firmware image comes with an in-built default config file that
distributes resources among the NIC and all the ULDs. However, in
some cases, where we don't want to run a particular ULD, or if we
want to redistribute the resources, then we'd modify the firmware
config file and then firmware will redistribute those resources
according to the new configuration. So, if firmware finds this
custom config file in flash, it reads this first. Otherwise, it'll
continue initializing the adapter with its own in-built default
config file.

Thanks
-Ganji Aravind.

Sounds like something devlink could be extended to do.

Firmware update interface is not for configuration.

I thought /lib/firmware is where firmware related files need to be
placed and ethtool --flash needs to be used to program them to
their respective locations on adapter's flash.

Note that we don't have devlink support in our driver yet. And, we're
a bit confused here on why this already existing ethtool feature needs
to be duplicated to devlink.

Thanks,
Rahul

Our goal is to provide solid, common interfaces for Linux users to rely
on. Not give way to vendor specific "solutions" like uploading ini files
to perform device configuration.

To be clear - I'm suggesting the creation of a more targeted APIs 
to control the settings you have encoded _inside_ the ini file. 
Not a new interface for an whole sale config upload.

Worst case scenario - if the settings are really device specific 
you can try to use devlink device parameters.

The config file contains very low-level firmware and device specific
params and most of them are dependent on the type of Chelsio NIC.
The params are mostly device dependent register-value pairs.
We don't see users messing around with the params on their own
without consultation. The users only need some mechanism to flash
the custom config file shared by us on to their adapter. After
device restart, the firmware will automatically pick up the flashed
config file and redistribute the resources, as per their requested
use-case.

We're already foreseeing very long awkward list (more than 50 params)
for mapping the config file to devlink-dev params and are hoping this
is fine. Here's a sample on how it would look.

hw_sge_reg_1008=0x40800
hw_sge_reg_100c=0x22222222
hw_sge_reg_10a0=0x01040810
hw_tp_reg_7d04=0x00010000
hw_tp_reg_7dc0=0x0e2f8849

and so on.

Thanks,
Rahul

I have no details on what you're actually storing in the config, 
and I don't care what your format is.

If it's a configuration parameter - it needs a proper API.

If it's a low level board param or such - it doesn't need a separate
flashable partition and can come with the rest of FW.

I know the firmware flashing interface is a lovely, binary, opaque
interface which vendors love. We'll not entertain this kind of abuse.

Sure, will drop the patch for now and revisit again, as part of
devlink or better API.
