Changelog

mstflint (4.21.0+1-1ubuntu0.1~22.04.1) jammy; urgency=medium

  * Backport to jammy with no changes.
    - Restoring Debian-based packaging restores the mstlink binary.
      LP: #2051571.

mstflint (4.21.0+1-1ubuntu0.1) mantic; urgency=medium

  * Add mstflint-dkms package to avoid a regression from jammy.
    LP: #2061182. This backports the packaging changes from noble that
    introduce the mstflint-dkms binary, which depends on the following
    backport of the install-dkms target from upstream:
    - d/p/0001-debian-mstflint-mstflint-dkms-packages-generation.patch
  * A bug in the kernel module can lead to UBSAN errors in dmesg upon
    device closure. LP: #2061185. Backport changes to fix that:
    - d/p/0002-Fix-illegal-shift-in-mst_release.patch
    - d/p/0003-Fix-typo.patch (fix for previous patch)
  * Backport change to clarify the licensing terms for the mstflint_access
    kernel module. LP: #2061186.
    - d/p/0004-Add-missed-license.patch
  * The kernel modules source in mstflint 4.21 FTBFS w/ the 6.5 kernel.
    LP: #2043098. Backport changes to fix that:
    - d/p/0005-fix-kernel-module-build-on-kernel-6.4.patch
    - d/p/0006-kernel-module-fix-wrong-comparison-order.patch (fix for
      previous patch).
  * Since we have now backported every patch that touches the kernel module
    source between 4.21.0 and 4.26.0, use 4.26.0 as the upstream version for
    the mstflint-dkms deb. This requires a patch to let us override the
    version during the build:
    - d/p/kernel-module-config-version.patch

mstflint: Mellanox firmware burning application and diagnostics tools

 This package contains a burning tool and diagnostic tools for Mellanox
 manufactured host channel adapters (HCA) and network interface cards (NIC).
 .
 This burning tool should be used only with Mellanox-manufactured
 HCA/NIC cards. Using it with cards manufactured by other vendors may
 be harmful to the cards (due to different configurations). Using the
 diagnostic tools is normally safe for all HCAs/NICs.

mstflint-dbgsym: debug symbols for mstflint
mstflint-dkms: mstflint kernel module for Linux

 The mstflint userspace tools require a kernel module to operate in
 Secure Boot mode. This package provides the required module source,
 and will build that module for your kernel upon installation.
 .
 Note: This module will need to be signed by a trusted key in order
 for your kernel to load it when booted in Secure Boot mode.
 For information on how to do this, see the appropriate documentation
 for your distribution. For Debian and Ubuntu:
