ispfw(4) recently gained firmware for Qlogic 27XX and 28XX FC controllers, and isp(4) now selects the newer of firmware in flash or in ispfw(4) to load for those controllers. This differs from the previous behavior (which remains for older controllers), which was to always load the ispfw(4) firmware if it is available. This adds a loader tunable, hint.isp.N.fwload_force to default to loading the ispfw(4) firmware, whether or not it is newer than the firmware in flash. This allows the user to always use the known firmware version included with the kernel. Note that there is an existing fwload_disable tunable that tells the driver to always load the firmware from flash and ignore ispfw(4). If fwload_disable is set, fwload_force will be ignored. So users with existing fwload_disable tunables will have the same behavior. If a user specifies both fwload_force and fwload_disable for the same controller, the isp(4) driver prints a warning message, and fwload_disable will be honored. The user can see which firmware is active through the dev.isp.N.fw_version* sysctl variables. share/man/man4/isp.4: Document the new loader tunable. sys/dev/isp/isp.c: In isp_load_risc_flash(), changet the decision logic to also consider ISP_CFG_FWLOAD_ONLY. Load the flash firmware and get the version, so the user knows what it is, but if the user set fwload_force, honor that. If the user didn't set fwload_force, the behavior remains to select the newer firmware version. sys/dev/isp/isp_pci.c: Add a new fwload_force tunable. Print out a warning if the user sets both fwload_disable and fwload_force. sys/dev/isp/ispvar.h: Add a new ISP_CFG_FWLOAD_FORCE configuration bit.
