Is there any problem with shipping the required cxgb3 firmware in the ofed releases?


No plans for any FW shipment with OFED.
You can add in the RN the FW location on the web like we do for Mellanox devices

I request that we do add this. Forcing customers to download firmware isn't very user friendly. It should be fairly easy to do, yes? I would take on the work involved to add the infrastructure needed...

All that would be needed, I think, is to make a src rpm that allows generating an rpm that will install the firmware in /lib/firmware. Each provider could manage their own. Or we could have a "firmware" src rpm that holds all the providers' firmware images...

Thoughts?

Steve.
