Hi Saurabh

XL710/X710 firmware update tool/images can be found on www.intel.com, that’s the formal way.
Please try there first.

Hi Michael --

What are the steps to upgrade i40e firmware. We are using CentOS7

It didn't work with guest VF driver either on ESXi and KVM.

Sure. I will blacklist i40evf driver and try it out.

Thanks,
/Saurabh

Hi, Saurabh

It's known issue, to fix this you'd better to upgrade the firmware
version of i40e.

BTW, will it work in guest with kernel driver?

If yes, to workaround(somebody reports it does not work for them):
Remove i40e.ko in guest, so that it will not auto-loaded when boot up.

Hope it works for you.

Thanks,
Michael
