flamingcow 06de095d1c X520 returns as product NIC: smoothed-bucket rate plan (read-time buckets, backward excess-fill, rate as headline not verdict) dissolves the per-frame RX timestamp requirement; CX-5 retired with full record (MCIA via VSC/ICMD proven, fwctl write-block, card-global module index, ~150ms mailbox quantum unexplained, FS link deadlock); E810 below-AQ bit-bang idea recorded and retired; FS+Wiitek pair and length return as goals 2026-08-16 22:02:04 -07:00
flamingcow a00f2216b7 BCM bridge tolerates MCIA offset-write-then-read framing, proven on hardware via bcm_mcia_emu.py; MCIA question narrows to firmware acceptance of 0x56 and offset/framing details 2026-08-12 21:39:46 -07:00
flamingcow 4e5ba0bccf Sharpen MCIA open question from mlx5_ifc.h register format; drop offline-rig and instrumentation-flow framing 2026-08-12 21:37:02 -07:00
flamingcow 65b1e18004 Dissolve resolved analyses into standalone device docs; open-questions.md keeps only the four live problems; discard NIC-timestamp length path (BCM ECD is proven) and Aquantia length trivia (30m part, oracle-only) 2026-08-12 21:30:16 -07:00
flamingcow 5588ebec6f Resolve X520 open questions on hardware: ETQF raw-L2 steering and single-hold compound I2C proven; 82599 has no all-packet exact-timestamp path so it is disqualified as product NIC (diagnostics-only), counter route rejected for a cable tester 2026-08-12 20:36:31 -07:00
