*Kernel 4.9- 0060-thermal-Fix-deadlock-in-thermal-thermal_zone_device_.patch
*Kernel 4.19 - 0028-thermal-Fix-deadlock-in-thermal-thermal_zone_device_.patch
o Move PSU EEPROM configuration from kerenl to user space for SPC2 / SPC3 system
*Kernel 4.9 - 0059-platform-x86-mlx-platform-Remove-PSU-EEPROM-configur.patch
*Kernel 4.19 - 0027-platform-x86-mlx-platform-Remove-PSU-EEPROM-configur.patch -
Known issues and limitations:
o Kernel patch 4.9 #60 is available upstream from kernel 4.9.207 and
Kernel patch 4.19 #28 is available upstream from kernel 4.19.89.
- No need to apply these patches when working with these kernel versions
or above
o ethtool for QSFP-DD is working only in raw mode.
o SN4700 PSU (Murata) sensors PSU2 and PSU3 might be not available after insertion/removal.
o PSUs inventory read via PMBus require the following packages:
- i2c-tools_4.1-1_amd64.deb
- libi2c0_4.1-1_amd64.deb
o I2C Asic driver take up to 5 second to complete initialization. When
sending ADD even need to make sure to wait at list 5 second before
reset of ASIC.
o Systems SN2010, SN2100, SN2410, SN2700 and SN2740 (and their
"-B" variants) require the following flag in kernel cmdline:
"acpi_enforce_resources=lax acpi=noirq".
o Few bug fixes introduced in upstream kernel 4.19, whoever use older
v4.19 kernel then v4.19.58, should cherry pick the following commits:
- Fix wrong order in probing routine initialization:
d2d8f64012543898a0158b1fc5c07af3d41c89d8 (available in v4.19.49)
- Fix parent device in i2c-mux-reg device registration
c241f3fbfa1af86f572a92f2e4d708358e163806 (available in v4.19.58)
o Kernel patch 4.9 #37 is available upstream from kernel 4.9.197 and
Kernel patch 4.19 #9 is available upstream from kernel 4.19.79.
- No need to apply these patches when working with these kernel versions
or above
o This version requires FW version 29.2000.1886 or higher for spectrum-2
and 13.2000.1886 or higher for spectrum-1.
