7 days	ixgbe: use libie adminq descriptors	Michal Swiatkowski
	Use libie_aq_desc instead of ixgbe_aci_desc. Do needed changes to allow clean build. Move additional caps used in ixgbe to libie.

2025-04-15	ixgbe: add E610 implementation of FW recovery mode	Jedrzej Jagielski
	Add E610 implementation of fw_recovery_mode MAC operation. In case of E610 information about recovery mode is obtained from FW_MODES field in IXGBE_GL_MNG_FWSM register (0x000B6134). Introduce recovery specific probing flow and init only vital features. User should be able to perform NVM update using devlink once FW error is detected in order to load a healthy img.

2025-04-15	ixgbe: add support for devlink reload	Jedrzej Jagielski
	The E610 adapters contain an embedded chip with firmware which can be updated using devlink flash. The firmware which runs on this chip is referred to as the Embedded Management Processor firmware (EMP firmware). Activating the new firmware image currently requires that the system be rebooted. This is not ideal as rebooting the system can cause unwanted downtime. The EMP firmware itself can be reloaded by issuing a special update to the device called an Embedded Management Processor reset (EMP reset). This reset causes the device to reset and reload the EMP firmware. Implement support for devlink reload with the "fw_activate" flag. This allows user space to request the firmware be activated immediately.

2025-04-15	ixgbe: add device flash update via devlink	Jedrzej Jagielski
	Use the pldmfw library to implement device flash update for the Intel ixgbe networking device driver specifically for E610 devices. This support uses the devlink flash update interface. Using the pldmfw library, the provided firmware file will be scanned for the three major components, "fw.undi" for the Option ROM, "fw.mgmt" for the main NVM module containing the primary device firmware, and "fw.netlist" containing the netlist module. The flash is separated into two banks, the active bank containing the running firmware, and the inactive bank which we use for update. Each module is updated in a staged process. First, the inactive bank is erased, preparing the device for update. Second, the contents of the component are copied to the inactive portion of the flash. After all components are updated, the driver signals the device to switch the active bank during the next EMP reset. With this implementation, basic flash update for the E610 hardware is supported.
