Details

send-firmware is the Inter-CPU host command to upload the firmware to the Companion-SoC.
It is called by msoc-main-mgmtd. The method is device specific.

Simplified it does:

5690pro fw 7.59:

The SFP module comes with preinstalled U-Boot bootloader, which has its own environment.
Normally its autostart variable is set to yes, to boot from its flashed firmware.

It could be set to tftpboot to boot the firmware via TFTP, which seems to be used here.
The host OS has to provide the files kernel.image (static) and filesystem.image (static) in
/lib/firmware/rtk and has to serve it via TFTP:

ip addr add 169.254.2.128/31 dev wanmodem
ip link set wanmodem up

udpsvd -c 1 169.254.2.128 69 tftpd -r -l /lib/firmware/rtk/

udpsvd is inetd alike waiting for packets on Port-69-udp and starts tftpd on incoming packets,

Companion-SoCs used by AVM:

• The second AR7 on the 5188 - duplicate performance
• The Scorpion on x49x models - WLAN offload
• The ARM side on Puma6 / Puma7 - DOCSIS modem
• The Falcon on the 5590 - Fiber modem
• The RTL86 on the 7520v2 - DSL modem
• The RTL96 on the 5690pro - Fiber SFP module
