Support was added to set some of the parameters in mlxconfig in textual values in addition
to the numerical values that are still supported. For example: LINK_TYPE_P1 can be set as
follows: LINK_TYPE_P1=ETH, instead of: LINK_TYPE_P1=2
Note that the textual values are case insensitive (either "True" or "true" are accepted).
mstflint – Firmware Burning Tool
The mstflint (Flash interface) utility performs the following functions:
•
Burns a binary firmware image to the Flash device attached to an adapter or a switch device.
•
Burns an Expansion ROM image to the Flash device attached to adapters.
•
Queries for firmware attributes (version, GUIDs, UIDs, MACs, PSID, etc.)
•
Enables executing various operations on the Flash memory from the command line (for
debug/production).
•
Disables/enables the access to the device's hardware registers, and changes the key used for
