7 Known Issues 3 Known Issues The following table describes known issues in this bundle release and possible workarounds. For list of known issues for ConnectX-5 firmware, please refer to firmware_table_connectx5en. Table 7 - Known Issues Internal Ref Description: FPGA images on flash should be burned using the Innova-2 Flex application. If a JTAG cable is used, it is highly recommended to perform the following actions: 1. Burn the image to the flash 2. Perform power-cycle Note: It is not recommended to load the image to the FPGA and then perform system reboot, as this may leave the FPGA PCI core in an unstable state. Workaround: N/A Keywords: JTAG image burn, PCI instability - Description: This bundle is binary-incompatible with the Beta (Innova_2_Flex_Open_18_05) bundle. The bundle s contents are only compatible with each other, and not with contents from other bundles. Workaround: N/A Keywords: Bundle, binary-incompatibility Description: When two Innova_2_Flex_Open cards are installed on a server, the Innova-2 Flex Open application does not function. Workaround: N/A Keywords: Burning tool Description: FPGA image burning can take minutes. Workaround: N/A Keywords: FPGA, image burning Issue Rev: Mellanox Technologies 7

8 4 Bug Fixes History The following table describes bug fixes in this bundle release. Table 8 - Bug Fixes History Internal Ref Description: When a user image is burned through PCI burn tool, the tool deletes another 4KB from the flash after last image byte. Keywords: burn tool, flash Discovered in release: Fixed in release: Description: Burning progress bar will wrap around to zero for images larger than 40 MB. This has no affect on the burn process. Keywords: burn progress Discovered in release: Fixed in release: Description: If the user burns a corrupted User Image and power cycles the machine (which loads the FPGA from flash), the FPGA will not be programmed. Keywords: User Image, FPGA Discovered in release: Fixed in release: Issue 8 Mellanox Technologies Rev: 18.07
