Merge branch 'net-devlink-sync-flash-and-dev-info-commands'
Jiri Pirko says: ==================== net: devlink: sync flash and dev info commands Purpose of this patchset is to introduce consistency between two devlink commands: devlink dev info Shows versions of running default flash target and components. devlink dev flash Flashes default flash target or component name (if specified on cmdline). Currently it is up to the driver what versions to expose and what flash update component names to accept. This is inconsistent. Thankfully, only netdevsim currently using components so it is still time to sanitize this. This patchset makes sure, that devlink.c calls into driver for component flash update only in case the driver exposes the same version name. Example: $ devlink dev info netdevsim/netdevsim10: driver netdevsim versions: running: fw.mgmt 10.20.30 stored: fw.mgmt 10.20.30 $ devlink dev flash netdevsim/netdevsim10 file somefile.bin [fw.mgmt] Preparing to flash [fw.mgmt] Flashing 100% [fw.mgmt] Flash select [fw.mgmt] Flashing done $ devlink dev flash netdevsim/netdevsim10 file somefile.bin component fw.mgmt [fw.mgmt] Preparing to flash [fw.mgmt] Flashing 100% [fw.mgmt] Flash select [fw.mgmt] Flashing done $ devlink dev flash netdevsim/netdevsim10 file somefile.bin component dummy Error: selected component is not supported by this device. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220824122011.1204330-1-jiri@resnulli.us Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
