From 29a0645c7dfcd664f1e92ab8d7539bba600b7102 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shannon Nelson Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2015 09:18:33 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] i40e: tame the nvmupdate read and write complaints The NVMUpdate tool doesn't necessarily know the ReadOnly map of the current NVM image, and must try reading and writing words that may be protected. This generates an error out of the Firmware request that the driver logs. Unfortunately, this ends up spitting out hundreds of bogus read and write error message that looks rather messy. This patch checks the error type and under normal conditions will not print the typical read and write errors during NVMUpdate. This can be overridden by enabling the NVM update debugging. This results in a much less messy log file, and likely many fewer customer support questions.
