    Generated each time a failure is detected on a device.

    Arguments:

    failure     Reason for the device failure. The values of this
    reason      argument are implementation specific.

    firmware    Identifier of the device's microcode.
    identifier

    next state  Next state of the device. This depends on the values

                loading      The entity will try to load the device's
                             microcode.
                stopped      The entity will stop, awaiting a dump or
                             load command.
