Abstract
The various embodiments described herein include systems, methods and/or devices used to enable firmware reversion triggering and control in a storage device. In one aspect, the method includes: (1) detecting a reversion trigger, the reversion trigger identifying a set of one or more controllers of a plurality of controllers on the storage device, and (2) in response to the reversion trigger, initiating recovery actions for each controller in the set of one or more controllers, including: for each controller in the set of one or more controllers: (a) asserting a revert signal to the controller to execute a firmware reversion for the controller, and (b) resetting the controller subsequent to asserting the revert signal to the controller.
