| Summary | 0000611: Miss kernel-ml-firmware on kernel-ml-4.3.0-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64 | ||||
| Description | I cannot use kernel-ml on my HP server because linux-firmware is too old and broadcom firmware (bnx2x-e1h-7.12.30.0.fw) is missing . It can be found on https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/bnx2x/bnx2x-e1h-7.12.30.0.fw | ||||

Similar for brcm/brcmfmac4350-pcie.bin. An updated firmware package would be very useful. |
|
|
I have just built linux-firmware based on the code available from : https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/ and uploaded the requested files to: http://elrepo.org/people/akemi/testing/el7/firmware/ Please test if they work. Your feedback appreciated. |
|
|
I installe kernel and download firmware and my host boot and start successfully. Need I update linux-firmware rpm or must I download the firmware ont each server ? |
|
|
We have yet to figure out the best way to offer the linux-firmware package. As a whole, it is very big. Providing the individual firmware files will be more convenient. We will update the status hopefully soon. |
|
|
The brcmfmac4350-pcie.bin file looks good to me. |
|
|
@orion Thanks for the feedback. Good to know it worked. |
|
|
I'll just note for the record that there are some issue with that firmware, but it's better than nothing. See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103201 |
|
|
We can rebuild once they've published a fixed version. |
|
|
We have decided to publish the linux-firmware and associated packages to the elrepo-extras repository. Extras - because they overwite the distro files. http://lists.elrepo.org/pipermail/elrepo/2016-February/002988.html |
