Firmware update fails when iommu is enabled #27

Closed tiran closed 2 years ago

The lsirec tool seems to be incompatible with hardware I/O MMUs and standard iommu settings on most recent Ubuntu Kernels. I had to disable I/O MMU in UEFI before I could successfully update my SAS card. The iommu=soft GRUB command line should work, too. You may want to mention the trick in your documentation.

PS: Thanks for your tool. :+1:
