Title: Don’t allow Skyhawk P1 firmware to be downloaded to Skyhawk P2 cards Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Sureshkumar Reddy Reddygari (~suresh-reddy) writes: Skyhawk P1 firmware can be downloaded to Skyhawk P2 cards. Skyhawk-P1 FW UFI is not compatible to flash on Skyhawk-P2 ASIC. These patches will avoid flashing P1 firmware on P2 card. We have a number of OEMs rolling on Skyhawk P2 ASIC support for their adapters over the next 6-12 months. We need to ensure this fix gets in in order to prevent Skyhawk B0 ASIC images being inadvertently downloaded to the P2 ASICs. If a B0 image is downloaded to a P2 ASIC, it will boot and run but the functionality will not operate correctly. All of the traditional Tier 1 Server vendors are rolling out the P2 ASIC in the coming year and are in qual now. Please consider including this change as an exception into 14.04 Stable release update and 14.04.3 once that git tree is available.
