Package: firmware-qlogic
Version: 0.35
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

It would be good to have updated QLogic FC HBA firmware in the. 
We're a bit behind with upstream especially with the ql2400 and 
ql2500 HBA firmware.

The update.py pulls things from from upstream FTP albeit I believe 
Qlogic has an even newer version on their ftp. (Due to vendor not 
updating its CURRENT_VERSIONS file.

The script would update:
ql2300_fw.bin-3.03.27 -> ql2300_fw.bin-3.03.28
ql2322_fw.bin-3.03.27 -> ql2322_fw.bin-3.03.28
ql2400_fw.bin-4.04.05 -> ql2400_fw.bin-5.06.02
ql2500_fw.bin-4.04.05 -> ql2500_fw.bin-5.06.02

Firmware on top level (ftp://ftp.qlogic.com/outgoing/linux/firmware) 
seems to be newer, reveals the head of the binary:

ql2400_fw.bin: [...] ISP24xx Firmware Version 5.06.03
ql2500_fw.bin: [...] ISP25xx Firmware Version 5.06.03

Why should the FW be updated: 
 Some array and switch vendors have compatibility lists and require 
 updated firmware on HBAs to allow support. The firware hasn't been
 update for some time now.

I can test newer firmware on ql2400 based HBAs (i.e. QLA2460) if you
need a guinea pig.
