Subject: [PATCH net-next 04/11] bnxt_en: Add support for updating flash more securely
Date: Fri, 1 Jul 2016 18:46:22 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1467413189-29566-5-git-send-email-michael.chan@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1467413189-29566-1-git-send-email-michael.chan@broadcom.com>
From: Rob Swindell <rob.swindell@broadcom.com>
To support Secure Firmware Update, we must be able to allocate
a staging area in the Flash. This patch adds support for the
"update" type to tell firmware to do that.
