Force cold reset / firmware reload of PCI device (Nova T 500)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

This has already been asked here but I can't remember if an answer was found.
When you have a PCI device such as the Hauppauge Nova T 500, you upgrade the
drivers and firmware (meaning copy a new file into /lib/firmware), you may
force an unload/reload of the driver in the kernel but is there a way to
force a reload of the firmware in the device without switching power off?

If the answer is no with the current drivers, is there a way to force the
device to do a cold reset (throwing loaded firmware)? If this answer is
yes, could it be possible to add this feature in the driver?

-Thierry
