The documentation for the intel ixl driver states additional tools to update the firmware:
• To change the behavior of the QSFP+ ports on XL710 adapters, use
the Intel QCU (QSFP+ configuration utility); installed by the
sysutils/intel-qcu package.
• To update the firmware on an adapter, use the Intel Non-Volatile
Memory (NVM) Update Utility; installed by the
sysutils/intel-nvmupdate-10g, sysutils/intel-nvmupdate-40g, or
sysutils/intel-nvmupdate-100g, package.
