author: HP Linux Development <Linux_SWdeliverables@external.groups.hpe.com> 1.60_12-02-2015
changelog:
  -     Added support for an optional Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0.
      
      Added support to the Embedded UEFI Shell to allow the user to export Secure
      Boot certificates to a file.
      
      Added support to automatically initialize the Trusted Platform Modules (TPM)
      nonvolatile storage when the TPM is first installed on a platform. This
      feature helps avoid issues where a TPM may be locked out from use to an
      operating system and requires the user to manually clear the TPM setting from
      the BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) menus when first installed.
      
      Updated branding during the boot process and in the pre-boot System Utilities
      from HP to Hewlett Packard Enterprise. No branding changes were made that
      could impact software running on the system. Industry standard SMBIOS tables
      were NOT updated to reflect Hewlett Packard Enterprise branding.
      
      Updated the language translations (non-English modes) for System Utilities.
      
      Updated the HP RESTful API HP BIOS Attribute Registry resources to match the
      latest BIOS/Platform Configuration options.
      
      Added support for the industry standard SMBIOS Type 2 baseboard record.
      
      Added support to the HP RESTful API to allow the user to configure the UEFI
      boot order when the system is configured for Legacy Boot Mode.

      **Problems Fixed:**
      
      Addressed an issue with Intel Xeon E3-1200 v5 series processors in which a
      rare and complex micro-architectural condition may result in unpredictable
      system behavior. While this issue is rare, the workload requirements to expose
      the issue cannot be characterized. This revision of the System ROM contains an
      updated version of Intel's microcode that addresses this issue. This issue not
      unique to HPE ProLiant servers and could impact any system utilizing affected
      processors which does not include the updated microcode. Due to the potential
      severity of the issue addressed in this revision of the System ROM, this
      System ROM upgrade is considered a critical fix.
      
      Addressed a VT-d security issue. This issue is NOT unique to ProLiant servers.
      HPE recommends that users using processors that support VT-d update the BIOS
      to this version.
      
      Addressed an issue where the Advanced ECC feature was displayed incorrectly on
      the graphical POST screen and as a System Utilities BIOS/Platform
      Configuration (RBSU) option. The DL20 Gen9 supports ECC not Advanced ECC.
      
      Addressed an issue where the system may incorrectly display an error message
      stating that a device is SR-IOV capable but is installed in a slot that does
      not support SR-IOV.
      
      Addressed an issue where the system is unable to enter package C6 state when
      the processor is idle.
      
      Addressed an issue where the processor frequency would stay high when the
      System Utilities BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) Power Regulator Option is
      confgured to OS Control Mode.
      
      Addressed an issue where the System Utilities BIOS/Platform Configuration
      (RBSU) Processor Core Disable Option would not correctly restore its default
      value when an invalid core number is entered.
      
      Addressed an issue where the System Utilities BIOS/Platform Configuration
      (RBSU) Redundant Power Supply Mode Option setting would not match with the iLO
      Web Management System Information Power page.

      is configured in Legacy Boot Mode. These issues did not affect systems
      configured in UEFI Boot Mode.
      
      Addressed an issue where certain optional PCIe video adapters would fail to
      work properly when using a Linux operating system.
      
      Addressed an issue where industry standard SMBIOS Type 9 entries for PCIe
      Slots attached to a not installed processor did not exist.
      
      Addressed an issue where the UEFI iSCSI Boot Configuration may not work
      properly when configuring these options through the HP RESTful Interface. This
      issue does not affect systems where the UEFI iSCSI Boot Configuration is
      configured through the System Utilities BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU).
      
      Addressed an issue where the drives attached to an HP Smart Array controller
      may not be detected on the first boot after switching from UEFI Boot Mode to
      Legacy Boot Mode.
      
      Addressed an issue where the PXE Boot Policy does not function properly when
      the Network VLAN Configuration option is enabled. When Network VLAN
      Configuration is enabled, the server would always attempt to boot both iPV4
      and iPV6 regardless of the PXE Boot Order Policy setting.
      
      Addressed an issue where the server would display a Red Screen error and
      become unresponsive when exiting the System Utilities Embedded User
      Diagnostics when configured for Legacy Boot Mode. This issue does not impact
      systems configured for UEFI Boot Mode.
      
      Addressed an issue where the HP ProLiant Dynamic Power Regulator would not

      the Date and Time option from the BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) when the
      Daylight Savings Time option is enabled.
      
      Addressed an issue where the server may display a Red Screen error and become
      unresponsive during boot when more than 256 hard drives are attached to a
      storage controller. The UEFI BIOS will now limit the enumeration of bootable
      devices to 256 entries.
      
      Addressed an issue where video is not displayed when using the embedded video
      controller with certain newer monitors, such as the HP E190i, which do not
      properly operate in native resolutions such as 1280x1024.
      
      Addressed an issue with the incorrect version of the HpServerBootSettings
      schema in the HP RESTful API.

author: HP Linux Development <Linux_SWdeliverables@external.groups.hpe.com> 1.70_05-06-2016
changelog:
  -     Enhanced PCIe resource allocation so that systems configured with multiple
      PCIe expansion devices may in some cases no longer report a "276 Option Card
      Configuration Error" during system boot due to not having enough I/O resources
      to support what is requested by the installed devices. This BIOS revision
      allows a wider range of PCIe configurations that request large amounts of I/O
      to be configured properly.
      
      Updated the UEFI Secure Boot revocations list (DBX) with the latest copy from
      Microsoft.
      
      Updated the HP RESTful API HPE BIOS Attribute Registry resources to match the
      latest BIOS/Platform Configuration options.
      
      Updated the UEFI Secure Boot Key Database revocations list (DBX) with the
      latest version from Microsoft. This includes the latest list of revoked
      certificates.
      
      Updated the language translations (non-English modes) for System Utilities.
      
      Increased the default timeout value of the iSCSI UEFI Software Initiator boot
      to 20 seconds. This may help resolve issues of intermittent connection drop
      during an iSCSI boot.

      **Problems Fixed:**
      
      Addressed an issue where a system that experiences an HPE Smart Storage
      Battery failure may become unresponsive when configured with iLO Firmware
      2.40.Note there is an issue wherea system configured with Integrated
      Lights-Out (iLO) Firmware version 2.40 may experience an intermittent and
      false HPE Smart Storage Battery failure, logged in the Integrated Management
      Log (IML).Due to the BIOS issue addressed in this revision, the false HPE
      Smart Storage Battery failure may result in the system becoming unresponsive.
      This issue does not impact systems that are not configured with an HPE Smart
      Storage Battery or systems configured with iLO Firmware 2.30 or earlier.
      
      Addressed an issue where the System Utilities BIOS/Platform Configuration
      (RBSU) USB Boot Options setting may not properly allow the server to boot from
      the internal SD card before a USB key when SD is higher in the priority list.
      This issue only affects servers configured in Legacy Boot Mode.
      
      Addressed an issue where the ambient temperature reported by the system during
      server boot may report incorrectly. This issue also requires an iLO firmware
      version update to a revision later than 2.4x which will be released later this
      year. This issue has no impact on the thermal operation of the server and is
      simply an issue with the temperature displayed during boot. While updating to
      this revision of the BIOS will not address this issue unless the iLO FW
      revision is later than 2.4x, there are no issues caused by updating the BIOS
      without updating iLO FW.
      
      Addressed an issue where the UEFI or Legacy Option ROM for a PCIe adapter may
      not be properly executed when installed in certain slots. This could cause
      such issues as an inability to boot using the PCIe adapter. This issue was
      seen with a Brocade network adapter but could be seen with other adapters.
      
      Addressed an issue where the server health LED may remain set in a degraded or
      failed state after an error event was resolved during server operation.
      Previously, a server reset may have been needed to clear the health LED event.
      
      Addressed an issue where the System Utilities BIOS/Platform Configuration
      (RBSU) option for Embedded UEFI Shell Auto Startup Script Network Location
      does not accept an NSH file name containing upper case characters.
      
      Addressed an issue where the UEFI iSCSI Software Initiator boot options may
      become invalid if the DHCP server provides a new IP Address to a previously
      configured iSCSI boot option.
      
      Addressed an issue where the system may become unresponsive during boot when
      configured with a HPE Dual microSD device when one of the microSD devices is
      failed or missing.
      
      Addressed an issue where the Automatic Server Recovery (ASR) setting may not
      be configured properly through the HP RESTful API.
      
      Addressed an issue where the internal SD card would remain active after the
      user has disabled the SD slot from System Utilities BIOS/Platform
      Configuration (RBSU) option. This issue only affects systems configured in
      Legacy Boot Mode.
      
      Addressed an issue where the server may become unresponsive when using the
      PING command from the Embedded UEFI Shell.
      
      Addressed an issue where the UEFI iSCSI Software Initiator boot options may
      become invalid if the DHCP server provides a new IP Address to a previously
      configured iSCSI boot option.

      Addressed an issue where the UEFI iSCSI Software Initiator boot option IPv6
      address cannot be configured using the HP RESTful API.
      
      Addressed an issue that may result in losing the existing UEFI iSCSI Software
      Initiator boot options if any of the connection parameters (LUN, Remote Port,
      IP address, login credentials) change.
      
      Addressed an issue in reporting the incorrect PCIe slot number in the error
      messages of failed iSCSI boot attempts.
      
      Addressed an issue of iSCSI boot configuration options not being available
      from the HP RESTful API when there are no network adapters in the system.
      
      Addressed an extremely rare issue where the server may become unresponsive due
      to a Non Maskable Interrupt (NMI) when performing a shutdown or startup from
      an Operating System.

      **Problems Fixed:**
      
      Addressed an issue with Intel Xeon E3-1200 v5 series Processors, Intel Xeon
      E3-1200 v6 series Processors, 6th Generation Intel Core i3 Processors, 7th
      Generation Intel Core i3 Processors, and Intel Pentium Processor G Series
      Processors in which a complex number of concurrent micro-architectural
      conditions may result in unpredictable system behavior when Intel
      Hyperthreading is enabled. This revision of the System ROM contains an updated
      version of Intel's microcode for these processors that addresses this issue.
      The issue requires short loops of less than 64 instructions that use the AH,
      BH, CH, or DH registers as well as their corresponding wider registers (e.g.
      RAX, EAX, or AX for AH) when both logical processors on the same physical
      processor core are active. This issue is not unique to HPE ProLiant servers
      and could impact any system utilizing affected processors which do not include
      the updated microcode. Due to the potential severity of the issue addressed in
      this revision of the System ROM, this System ROM upgrade is considered a
      critical fix for systems with Intel Hyperthreading enabled (which is the
      default for systems using processors which support Intel Hyperthreading).

changelog:
  -     Added support for Dynamic Power Capping. This feature can be enabled from the
      BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) Boot Time Optimizations Menu. This support
      requires Power Management Controller Firmware version 1.0.4 and Integrated
      Lights-Out (iLO) Firmware version 1.15 or later.
      
      Added support for the HPE Core Boost Technology. This feature requires HPE
      Innovation Engine Firmware 0.1.2.6 or later.
      
      Added a new BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) Power and Performance Tuning
      option for LLC Dead Line Allocation. When running certain applications,
      modifying this setting from its default value may improve system performance.
      
      Added a new BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) Power and Performance Tuning
      option for Stale A to S. When running certain applications, modifying this
      setting from its default value may improve system performance.
      
      Added support to detect and report unbalanced memory configurations that may
      result in non-optimal performance. Please consult the Memory Population
      Guidelines for more information on memory population rules and
      recommendations.
      
      Added a new Auto option for the XPT Prefetcher in the BIOS/Platform
      Configuration (RBSU) menu that will default the XPT prefetcher to disabled
      based on a current Intel sighting processor issue.  Enabling this option (via
      setting this option for Force Enable) may improve latency performance, but
      Intel has indicated rare stability issues may occur if XPT Prefetcher is
      enabled.

changelog:
  -     Added support for HPE Persistent Memory featuring Intel Optane DC Persistent
      Memory.
      
      Added a new BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) option called Intel Priority
      Based Frequency to support enabling Intel Speed Select - Base Frequency
      support on select 2nd Generation Xeon Scalable Family Processors that are
      optimized for NFV workloads. This option, which is disabled by default, is
      located in the Processor Options menu and visible only when NFV optimized SKUs
      are installed (denoted by the N in the SKU model). On supported Operating
      Systems, Intel Speed Select - Based Frequency functionality allows high
      priority cores to operate at a higher frequency than the nominal base
      frequency while lower priority cores will run at a slower frequency.
      
      Added a new BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) I/O Direct Cache (IODC) menu to
      the Power and Performance Menu. This option allows for tuning the policy for
      which I/O transactions interact with the processor cache. The caching policy
      may have a slight impact on cross socket latency. Workloads where this option
      would need to be modified from its default value for optimum performance are
      extremely rare.
      
      Added support for HPE Fast Fault Tolerant Memory (ADDDC) to operate when a
      single memory rank is only available on a given memory channel. Previous
      versions of the System ROM required two or more memory ranks to be available
      on each memory channel. After updating to this version of the System ROM the
      server will automatically configure the system for HPE Fast Fault Tolerant
      Memory Mode if the memory configuration supports this option.
      
      Updated the UEFI OpenSSL support to version 1.0.2r to address security
      vulnerability CVE-2019-1559.

      when booting from other types of media.
      
      Addressed an issue where a dual port networking device may show up in the
      System Configuration Utilities with two Port 1 names instead of properly being
      represented as Port 1 and Port 2. This did not impact any functionality to the
      device.
      
      Addressed an issue where a system may not log the failed DIMM (FRU) to the
      Integrated Management Log (IML) when experiencing an uncorrectable memory
      error when in ADDDC Memory Mode. In this case the system would log a Machine

changelog:
  -     Added support for HPE One button secure erase. This option can be launched
      from the HPE Intelligent Provisioning application or through the HPE RESTful
      API to securely restore the system back to a default configuration. This
      option also requires iLO firmware 1.40 or later, and Intelligent Provisioning
      3.30 or later.
      
      Added Secure Configuration Lock feature. This feature can be enabled to detect
      system hardware, security configuration, or firmware revision changes to
      protect against malicious or unintended modifications to the server. This
      protection can be enabled for systems in transit from the factory to the
      customer site, in transit from one customer site to another, or can be left
      enabled on a deployed server. A new BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) Server
      Configuration Lock menu in the Server Security Options is available to enable
      and configure this functionality.
      
      Added a new BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) Backup and Restore Settings
      menu to System Default Options. This option can be used to backup (save off)
      the current BIOS configurations settings to a USB storage device for migration
      to another server.
      
      Updated the language translations (non-English modes) for System Utilities.
      
      Updated the RESTful API HPE BIOS Attribute Registry resources to match the
      latest BIOS/Platform Configuration options.

      **Problems Fixed:**  
            Resolved an issue, that can result in a network outage, when a profile is created with duplicate multiple networks.   
            Resolved an issue were Virtual Connect Manager (VCM) will reset modules that have port mirroring enabled when VCM restarts, and will casue a network outage.   
            Resolved an issue were VC modules do not provide information about CPU, part number, etc. via Command Line Interface (CLI).   
            Resolved an issue when using VC CLI, were a user is unable to add LDAP groups with names containing spaces.   
            Resolved an issue when a profile is created with multiple networks that use a Shared Uplink Set (SUS) without selecting any networks, and if this profile is applied to a server with Flex NICs, this will result in a segmentation fault, VCM SEGV.   
            Resolved an issue were 'About' HP VCM pop-up window was causing IE8 to crash, which results, in the About table not being displayed.  
            Resolved an issue with VCM SEGV when the user has a profile (with multiple networks defined in a connection without a network being configured), then edits the profile without making any changes, and then applies the profile to a server with Flex-10 LOM.
      
      **Known Issues:  
      **In a double-dense domain configuration, interconnect bays 7 and 8 should not be used to create a FC Fabric. The fabric should instead be created on bays 5 and 6. If a fabric is created on bays 7 or 8 using VCMCLI, an incorrect error message may be displayed 'ERROR: Module not found' instead of 'ERROR: A fabric is not allowed to be created with the specified bay for a double-sense configuration'   
            When a Blade server port has multiple FlexNICs defined (one of them is defined as FCoE) and the FCoE FlexNIC is deleted, the band width does not redistribute to other active FlexNICs even through the GUI will show it has.   
            If the Primary VC modules loses power or is removed, a Profile Status change trap is not sent as it should be. Work-around: When the Primary VC module loses power or is removed, the cpqHoSWRunninagStatusChangeTrap trap (defined in the cpqhost.mib MIB) will be sent by the backup VC module when it becomes Primary. A sample trap is shown below:   
                 
               Enterprise Specific Trap (.11017) Uptime: 20 days, 2:54:46.44,   
               SNMPv2-MIB::sysName.0 = STRING: bay2TC,   
               SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.11.2.11.1.0 = INTEGER: 10,   
               SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.11.2.6.1.1.2.1 = STRING: "aus-c7000-13_vc_domain",   
               SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.11.2.6.1.1.3.1 = STRING: "HP Virtual Connect Domain Manager",   
               SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.11.2.6.2.0 = STRING: "VCM Domain status trap",   
               SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.11.2.6.1.1.4.1 = STRING: "3.15",   
               SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.11.2.6.1.1.12.1 = INTEGER: 4,   
               SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.11.2.6.1.1.13.1 = INTEGER: 5,   
               SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.11.2.6.1.1.14.1 = STRING: "VcD_6f54796e7543",   
               SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.11.2.6.1.1.15.1 = INTEGER: 2   
                 
               The two MIB OIDs in the trap above to analyze are:   
               enterprises.232.11.2.6.1.1.13.1   
               enterprises.232.11.2.6.1.1.15.1   
                 
               These OIDs will contain the following values when the Backup VC module has become the Primary:   
               cpqHoSWRunningConfigStatus : operational(5)   
               cpqHoSWRunningRedundancyMode : master(2)   
                 
            When upgrading from a pre-3.00 VC release, if Fibre Channel SNMP traps were defined with DNS type of the Trap Destination address, upon completion of the upgrade SNMP settings will not be applied to the VC-FC modules. Work-around: Edit any FC SNMP trap destinations, using the GUI or CLI, that have a DNS name for the trap destination and change the DNS name to an IPv4 address.   
            When Virtual Connect has assigned a Server Profile to a server, the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) can't modify the protocol configuration (iSCSI/FCoE) of any NIC (including the 551m), even if the NIC is not connected to a Virtual Connect module. Any protocol configuration changes must be made when the Server Profile is not assigned to the server.

      **Problems Fixed:**  
            Resolved an issue where the primary VC module could not communicate with other modules due to a problem with the reverse DNS lookup when DNS is enabled in the VC infrastructure.   
            Resolved an issue where the VCM GUI was using HTTP instead of HTTPS.   
            Resolved an issue where changes in the SNMP configuration caused an outage.   
            Resolved an issue where updating gen numbers while creating or assigning a profile caused a NO-COMM state.   
            Resolved a GUI issue where renaming the associated network on the Edit Ethernet Network screen cleared the native property.   
            Resolved a GUI issue where clicking the Server Connections tab on the Ethernet Networks screen caused a popup message to appear stating that there are no server connections to display, even when server profiles with assigned networks existed.   
            Resolved a GUI issue where the Calculating Server Connections progress bar hung after clicking the Server Connections tab on the Ethernet Networks screen.   
            Resolved an issue where OA would enter NO-COMM state when multiple VC Enet modules were reset at the same time and then reconfigured. The VC Ethernet Module recovery algorithm has been optimized to recover Odd side modules and then Even side modules (previously was a full reset/recovery of all modules in parallel). Depending on configuration of the Domain, this will reduce or eliminate Network outage during a full enclosure recovery.   
            Resolved loss of FC connectivity when an 8Gb/24-Port VC-FC Module receives a multi-sequence frame from an in band Storage Management application (application was executing on a server within the c7000 enclosure). Resulted in a 8Gb/24-Port FC Module reset and loss of FC connectivity.   
            Resolved an issue when the VC-FC 24-Port Module would not recover from an NO-COMM state after an OA failover. The IP address for the FC Module was not being updated correctly, and blocking the proper communication with the Primary VC Module.  
            Resolved an issue where VCM reported a NO-COMM state for a VC-FC module, even though the VC-FC module was still responding to a ping command.   
            Resolved an issue where the VC 8Gb/24-port FC module firmware version information did not display correctly on the OA rack firmware page. This resolution requires OA version 3.30.   
            Resolved an issue with VC Manager failing to retrieve configuration generation number from VC Ethernet Module.   
            Resolved an issue where the network nativelan setting cleared after adding another network.   
            Resolved an issue where an hpvcm_deleteManagedObjects return code error occurred when deleting a profile.   
            Resolved an issue that delayed the startup time on an enclosure with eight Flex-10/FlexFabric modules.   
            Resolved a performance issue where adding a single network caused an update of all configured networks.   
            Resolved an issue where firmware details did not display on a Firefox browser window.   
            Resolved an issue where FCoE login took longer than expected when changing between fabrics.   
            Resolved an issue where the VCM CLI command "set enet-vlan" did not return an error for the command "set enet-vlan VlanTagControl=Tunnel SharedServerVlanId=true".   
            Resolved an HP Integrity BL8x0c i2 Series Server Blade issue where there were problems disconnecting Flex-10 ports with I/O modules that do not support Flex-10, which could result in disabled network ports appearing as enabled.   
            Resolved a GUI issue where titles on the Device Bay Summary screen were not displayed consistently.   
            Resolved an issue where an SNMP trap configuration with only FC traps selected could not have an associated set of severities.   
            Resolved an issue where an error was not indicated for login redistribution for a degraded/failed SAN in external connections.  
            Resolved a GUI issue for HP Integrity BL8x0c i2 Series Server Blades where the entries in the Server Ethernet Adapter Information table did not properly collapse and expand.  
            Resolved an issue found in an Integrity FlexFabric environment where the HP-UX boot path was lost while unassigning and reassigning a profile.  
            Resolved an issue for a race condition between module recovery and enclosure recovery when an enclosure was recovering from an enclosure NO-COMM condition.  
            Resolved an issue when recovering from a module NO-COMM state where the correct module state is properly tracked to avoid unnecessary failure for LANIO calls and GenNumber requests.  
            Resolved an FC module firmware issue where the VC 8Gb/24-port FC module firmware version is displayed as "Not Available" in OA, but VCM has the correct firmware version information.  
            Resolved an FC module firmware issue where the DHCP client in the VC 8Gb/24-port FC module firmware became corrupted, causing the FC module to stop responding to VCM, resulting in a NO-COMM state.  
            Resolved an issue when VC modules coming out of NO-COMM state, they may not be in sync with each other, which will result in unexpected additional module failures.  
            Resolved a restriction where customers need to put the VC domain in VCEM maintenance mode in order to get the support dump.  
            Resolved an issue where the GUI will state that the event manager registration has expired and then the user is logged out of the GUI unexpectedly.  
            Resolved an FC connection outage due to a failure of the Virtual Connect Flex Fabric primary module.  During the Backup Module recovery, the error caused a full Virtual Connect reset and recovery which created the outage.  
            Resolved an issue with growing memory utilization on HP VC Flex-10 10Gb Ethernet modules when Blades are in a PXE Boot loop.  
            Resolved an issue with a small memory leak found in stpd when handling of subport MED data update notices.  
            Resolved an issue where a VC domain will get into NO-COMM state after performing OA failover and then fail back.  
            Resolved an issue where the Private Networks filter rules were not updated when LAG (Link Aggregation Group) membership changes.  
            Resolved an issue where when a module recovers from NO-COMM state, the stacking links will show failed status even though there is no real operational problem.  
            Made adjustment for the Maximum RSS memory limit for graceful VC management process shutdown.

  - 10.01.00.59.xx.y-k1 HM 01/31/2020
  Enhancements:
  - SAN Congestion Management

  The qla2xxx driver has the ability participate in SAN Congestion
  Management wherein when the driver receives an FPIN ELS, it
  forwards the ELS payload to the fc_transport to process
  the notification.

  In addition, the driver also tracks the error stats internally which
  is used by our application to display the information to the SAN
  administrator.

  Fixes
  - qla2xxx: Script changes to collect MPI firmware dump.
  - qla2xxx: Fix MPI failure AEN (8200) handling.
  - qla2xxx: Honor status qualifier in FCP_RSP per spec.
  - qla2xxx: Handle NVME status iocb correctly.
  - qla2xxx: Allow dev_loss_tmo setting for FC-NVMe devices.
  - qla2xxx: Setup debugfs entries for remote ports.
  - qla2xxx: Fix I/O failures during remote port toggle testing.

  - 10.01.00.58.xx.y-k1 HM 01/29/2020
  Enhancements:
  - None

  Fixes
  - scsi: qla2xxx: Fix unbound NVME response length

  1 Inbox RHEL 7.8 - Kernel panic
  while running IOs with NetApp's
  pNate suite with NULL pointer
  deference.

  Resolution: When a NVMe command is completed with status
  of data underrun, driver will copy data size
  indicated in response payload without verifying
  lenght. This fix will make sure driver checks
  for the length and if its greated than response
  payload, sets buffer size to response size.


  - 10.01.00.57.xx.y-k1 HM 01/21/2020
  Enhancements:
  - None

  Fixes
  - qla2xxx: flush IO on zone disable.

  1 L1-121 - RH81 Inbox -QLogic - system
  crashes during perturbation tests

  Resolution: Customer do Zone disable test. Driver gets 
  failure from Fabric scan commands. Driver 
  fail to flush all session when switch scan
  failed. This leave multipath driver in a hung
  state. Driver needs to flush all sessions to
  allow multipath to fail over.

  - 10.01.00.56.xx.y-k1 HM 01/16/2020
  Enhancements:
  - None

  Fixes
  - qla2xxx: flush all sessions on zone disable
  - scsi: qla2xxx: unregister ports after GPN_FT failure
  - qla2xxx: Fix crash during device discovery.

  1 L1-121 - RH81 Inbox -QLogic - system
  crashes during perturbation tests

  Resolution: Customer do Zone disable test. Driver gets

  - 10.01.00.55.xx.y-k1 HM 10/29/2019
  Enhancements:
  - None

  Fixes
  - qla2xxx: re-PLOGI on PRLI NVME failure

  1 NVMe/FC Failed to Reconnect to Target Even with Manual
  Connect. Reboot Required to Fix

  Resolution: When PRLI failure is encountered by the target which does
  not understand FC-NVMe, restart the state machine by going
  back to PLOGI state.

  Scope: ISP26xx/27xx/28xx 

  - qla2xxx: update: fix stuck login session

  1 Initiator port did not become ONLINE after LOOP UP

  Resolution: Session is stuck if driver sees FW has received a PRLI.
  Driver allows FW to finish with processing of PRLI by
  checking back with FW at a later time to see if the PRLI
  has finished. Instead, driver failed to push forward
  after re-checking PRLI completion.
