Mellanox MCX413A-GCAT PCIe Card Firmware 12.24.1000

Changes and New Features:

- Layer 3 Encapsulation: Added support for an additional layer (Layer 3) of packet processing at the hypervisor level that enables adding and removing protocol headers (e.g., the MAC address is removed during encapsulation, and added during decapsulation) for the encapsulated traffic.
- e-switch Steering Rule: Enabled e-switch steering rule in the NIC without matching it with the Directional MACs (DMAC) protocol. Now the rule is only according to the MC/UC bit.
- IB Sniffer Tool: The IB Sniffer utility provides the user the ability to capture the e-switch traffic directly to a hypervisor queue.
- Transmission Histogram Counters: Added support for the transmission histogram counter set as part of the Ethernet extended group counters.
- Events Generation by the Hardware upon Counter Incrementation: Enabled the hardware to generate an event upon counter incrementation, in order to reduce an overhead from the software from reading rarely updated counters such as error counters.
- NODNIC Connectivity: Enables NOIDNIC connectivity to the network through the e-switch and not directly to the physical port.
- QP and Mkey Values: Enabled setting the QP and the Mkey values by the software upon these resources creation.
- PCIe Atomic: Enabled advanced PCIe atomic operations. The HCA will perform PCIe atomic operations as a requestor towards the host memory when receiving compatible atomic messages from the network, and according to the configuration of NV_SW_OFFLOAD_CONFIG pci_atomic_mode field and the PCI AtomicOp Requester Enable bit in the Device Control 2 register.
- TIR Destination from the FDB: Enabled a single TIR destination from the FDB.
- WRED: Changed the WRED default mode to OFF for Multi-Host adapter cards.
- TX Steering Rule on in WQE Ethernet Segment: Added support for TX steering rule on flow_table_metadata in WQE Ethernet segment.
- L3 Encapsulation/Decapsulation in the Reformat Context Allocation: Added L3 encapsulation/decapsulation support in the reformat context allocation. L3 encapsulation removes L2 headers and adds generic L3 tunnel encapsulation. L3 decapsulation removes the generic L3 tunnel decapsulation and L2 header.
- Flow Steering Header Modification: Added support for flow steering header modification (header rewrite) for IPv4 TTL header for loopback traffic (VF-VF/VF-PF). Note: TTL modification for traffic from the network is currently not supported.
- Teardown: Fast Mode: [Developers only] Moved the fast teardown HCA cap bit to offset 0x1c.4:1.
- Virtual Functions/QoS: Enabled Virtual Functions to read QPDPM/QPDP/QPTS.
- Message vs. Payload based flow control QP Configuration: Added support for requester QP packet based on E2E credits mode. The new flow control supports HCA-to-switch RDMA traffic packet-based End-2-End.
- Multi PCI RDMA IB: This capability enables the user to expose two PCI/IB devices per network port.

Bug Fixes History:

- Fixed an issue that prevented the system from counting multicast/broadcast traffic on the ETH unicast vport counter when the driver did not specify the MAC address in the FTE match criteria of the Flow Table Entry in the eswitch’s FDB table.
- Fixed an issue that caused the mlxconfig tool to present all possible expansion ROM images, instead of presenting only the existing images.
- ibdump support for ConnectX-4 adapters in firmware v12.23.1020 is partly.
- Modifying VMQoS rate limiter parameters during traffic might cause transmission failure.
- Aligned the default tuning type in PHY TEST MODE to the device protocol.
- When a device is operating in Safe Mode state, and the user issues the mlxfwreset command, the device might fail to come-up correctly after the reset. Note: Do not run mlxfwreset when operating in a Safe Mode state.
- Fixed an issue that caused the max_qp_retry_freq_exceeded counter (including a CQE with error syndrome 0x97, and the QP moving to error state) to be activated only after exceeding the NIC Vport context max_qp_retry_limit, and not when reaching it.
- Fixed an issue related to PCIe "Surprise link down" event reporting capability.
- Fixed an issue that resulted in the link partner experiencing false active linkup when plugging in a base-T cable to a closed port.
- Modifying VMQoS rate limiter parameters during traffic might cause transmission failure.

About Network Adapter Drivers:

When connected, the operating system usually installs a generic driver that helps the computer to recognize the newly attached device.

However, proper software must be applied if you want to make use of all features that the network adapter has available. This task also allows computers to properly recognize all device characteristics such as manufacturer, chipset, technology, and others.

Updating the adapter's drivers and utilities version might improve overall performance and stability, increase transfer speeds, fix different compatibility problems and several network-related errors, as well as bring various other changes.

To install this release, simply get the package, extract it if necessary, run the setup, and follow the instructions displayed on-screen. When done, don't forget to perform a system restart and reconnect the network adapter to make sure that all changes take effect properly.

Without further ado, if you intend to apply this version, click the download button and install the package. Moreover, check with our website as often as possible so that you don't miss a single new release.
