This document describes the devlink features implemented by the ``mlx4``
|
|
device driver.

|
Regions
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
The ``mlx4`` driver supports dumping the firmware PCI crspace and health
|
|
buffer during a critical firmware issue.
|
|
|
|
In case a firmware command times out, firmware getting stuck, or a non zero
|
|
value on the catastrophic buffer, a snapshot will be taken by the driver.
|
|
|
|
The ``cr-space`` region will contain the firmware PCI crspace contents. The
|
|
``fw-health`` region will contain the device firmware's health buffer.
|
|
Snapshots for both of these regions are taken on the same event triggers.
