I have successfully updated to firmware version 7.00 for the XXV710-2 adapter together with the -b option:
Num Description Ver.(hex) DevId S:B Status
=== ================================== ============ ===== ====== ==============
01) Intel(R) Ethernet Network Adapter 7.00(7.00) 158B 00:001 Up to date
XXV710-2
Anyway I have several issues when running my dpdk application (e.g. TX is somehow not started if I fill up the TX queue).
I have seen that you are using the 6.01 (http://fast.dpdk.org/doc/perf/DPDK_19_05_Intel_NIC_performance_report.pdf), so I would like to rollback or downgrade.
Unfortunately I have no idea how to rollback or downgrade. In your user update guide you wrote that I should contact support.
Could you please give me an advice how to go back to the version you have used in your performance tests: 6.01 0x80003221 1.1691.0 ?
BR,
Christian

Hello Christian,
Thank you for posting in Intel Ethernet Communities.
We will try to help check your query on how to roll back firmware from 7.00 to 6.01. We would appreciate if you could provide the following information that would help us check on your concern.
1.) What is the OS installed on your system?
2.) Please provide the System Support Utility log of your system. This will allow us to check your Adapter details and would also help us identify if you are using an OEM or retail version of Intel Ethernet Adapter. Kindly refer to the steps below.
a- https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/91600/Intel-System-Support-Utility
b- Open SSU.exe
c- Mark the box "Everything" and then click "Scan".
d- When finished scanning, click "Next".
e- Click on "Save" and attach the file to a post.
Looking forward to your reply.

Hello Christian,
Thank you for the reply. But it seems you missed to attach the SSU log file.
Kindly attach the file to this thread as this would help us check your query on the part of firmware downgrade
Please also share the exact model and part number of the adapter. You may visit this link on how to Identify Your Intel® Network Adapter Model Using Serial Number
Looking forward to your reply.

Hello Christian,
Thank you for the patience on this matter.
Please be informed that starting FW 6.8, it includes recovery mode which prohibits downgrade to previous FW.
The design of Recovery Mode precludes rollback to prior versions of the NVM. This is because the addition of the Recovery Mode capability changed the definition of some regions of the NVM to be write-protected. Rollback to a prior version requires access to these write-protected regions, and therefore, the rollback would fail.
You might need to use the latest dpdk and kernel drivers with this version of NVM. To contact DPDK support, click the "Login and Access" in the link below.

Please let us know if you have additional questions on this matter.
