Abstract
In an asymmetric hardware accelerator system, a hardware accelerator configured to handle workloads of a particular type that have a lowest CPU utilization as compared to workloads of other types being handled by other hardware accelerators configured to handle the other types of workloads is identified. A CPU fallback is conducted of workloads of the identified hardware accelerator to the CPU. While the CPU is handling the workloads, firmware of the identified hardware accelerator is upgraded.
