NVIDIA ConnectX-7 Adapter Cards Firmware Release Notes v28.43.4100 LTS (2024 LTS U4)

Bug Fixes in this Firmware Version

Internal Ref.Issue
4757785 / 4741625Description: Fixed an issue by introducing a new PCIe channel estimation algorithm, improving performance across a wide range of channel conditions.
Keywords: PCIe
Discovered in Version: 28.43.3608
Fixed in Release: 28.43.4100
4527750 / 4400949Description: Fixed an issue where the MCTP context was incorrectly cleared when a new message arrived over a different transport.
Keywords: MCTP
Discovered in Version: 28.43.3608
Fixed in Release: 28.43.4100
4774378 / 3921355Description: Fixed a deadlock seen during stress traffic with small packets and modify actions, which could hang the SoC (e.g., testpmd with three SFs and hardware offload disabled).
Keywords: Firmware deadlock, small packets
Discovered in Version: 28.43.3608
Fixed in Release: 28.43.4100
4780433 / 4450570Description: Fixed an issue where the root complex sent MCTP-over-PCI messages before a BDF was assigned, causing responses to be sent with BDF 0. The fix ensures that MCTP messages routed by ID are ignored until a valid BDF is assigned.
Keywords: MCTP-over-PCI, BDF, MCTP messages
Discovered in Version: 28.43.3608
Fixed in Release: 28.43.4100
4778182 / 4375264Description: Fixed an issue where querying high I²C address EEPROM pages for SFP modules incorrectly returned data from the low address page instead.
Keywords: I²C address, EEPROM pages, SFP modules
Discovered in Version: 28.43.3608
Fixed in Release: 28.43.4100
4778175 / 4362705Description: Implemented additional strict validation of incoming NC-SI packets by verifying the payload length parameter to improve robustness and prevent malformed packet handling.
Keywords: NC-SI
Discovered in Version: 28.43.3608
Fixed in Release: 28.43.4100
4727304 / 4718947Description: Fixed an issue in the steering definers used for LAG with IPv6 traffic.
Keywords: LAG, IPv6 traffic, steering
Discovered in Version: 28.43.3608
Fixed in Release: 28.43.4100
4370695 / 4656353 / 4739817Description: Fixed a corner case during warm reboot that could cause some TX lane elastic buffers to lose synchronization during link training.
Keywords: TX lane elastic buffers
Discovered in Version: 28.43.2566
Fixed in Release: 28.43.4100
4508525 / 4480427Description: Fixed incorrect calculation of start address and mode for the CQE buffer in DPA CQ, which could cause CQEs to be written to the wrong address when the buffer is not 4K-aligned and spans a second page boundary.
Keywords: CQ, CQE Buffer, DPA
Discovered in Version: 28.43.2566
Fixed in Release: 28.43.4100
