--- Comment #19 from Keith Busch
fw download seems to work but apparently there is no way to acutally activate this firmware (or the firmware is not in a format this drive accepts):
# nvme fw-download /dev/nvme0 --fw=/root/8DV101H0.bin Firmware download success ibs-arm-1:~ # nvme fw-activate /dev/nvme0 -s 0 -a 1 NVME Admin command error:FIRMWARE_IMAGE(107) ibs-arm-1:~ # nvme fw-activate /dev/nvme0 -s 0 -a 0 NVME Admin command error:INVALID_FIELD(2) ibs-arm-1:~ # nvme fw-activate /dev/nvme0 -s 0 -a 2 Success activating firmware action:2 slot:0
okay, action 2 succeeds, but that does not involve the newly uploaded/downloaded firmware.
Action 1 is required to use to get new firmware activated, and the response says it's invalid, meaning here the signing on this firmware is not compatible with the signature in your running firmware. That's what I was afraid would happen, because I can't do anything about that. The host software I develop are on the wrong side of this problem as I have no visibility into firmware building and packaging. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
