Recovery Mode is intended to recover from a fatal failure scenario in which the device is not accessible to the host, meaning the firmware is non-responsive. The purpose of the Firmware Recovery Mode is to enable software tools to update firmware and/or device configuration so the fatal error can be resolved. Recovery Mode Firmware supports a limited set of admin commands required for NVM update. Recovery Firmware does not support hardware interrupts so a polling mode is used. The driver will expose only the minimum set of devlink commands required for the recovery of the adapter. Using an appropriate NVM image, the user can recover the adapter using the devlink flash API. Prior to 4.20 E810 Adapter Recovery Firmware supports only the update and erase of the "fw.mgmt" component. E810 Adapter Recovery Firmware doesn't support selected preservation of cards settings or identifiers. The following command can be used to recover the adapter: $ devlink dev flash <pci-address> <update-image.bin> component fw.mgmt overwrite settings overwrite identifier Newer FW versions (4.20 or newer) supports update of "fw.undi" and "fw.netlist" components. $ devlink dev flash <pci-address> <update-image.bin> Tested on Intel Corporation Ethernet Controller E810-C for SFP FW revision 3.20 and 4.30.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
