+Flash Update
+============
+
+The ``sfc`` driver implements support for flash update using the
+``devlink-flash`` interface. It supports updating the device flash using a
+combined flash image ("bundle") that contains multiple components (on ef10,
+typically ``fw.mgmt``, ``fw.app``, ``fw.exprom`` and ``fw.uefi``).
+
+The driver does not support any overwrite mask flags.
